When Jeff Scott Soto, Marcel Jacob and Pontus Norgren were in Stockholm, Sweden laying vocals for their new band called Humanimal, they decided to perform at the Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg, Sweden, thanks to dj Dr. Rock from the Swedish Radio Rock Klassiker who persuaded the guys to perform it.

Marcel wanted to leave the festival but, after looking inside the tent which was fully packed with a crowd shouting for Talisman, he decided not to turn his back on those people.

So Marcel and other people started to run around the festival area to look for a bass to be borrowed in time for the show: Magnus Rosén from HammerFall finally lent Marcel one of his bass guitars.

The show went great and, since another band playing at Sweden Rock Festival had a mobile hard disc recording unit, Christer Wedin managed to get the Talisman show recorded as well.

But the sound Marcel had at the show was not too exciting, severe problems with Jeff's microphone and some out of tune guitars needed some fixing.
