The Holocaust was an immensely dark time for Jewish people where over six million Jews were murdered simply because they were Jewish. This film depicts the astounding actions of Sir Nicholas Winton which prevented the killing of Jewish children. Winton uses his own money to transport children from areas under Nazi rule to England.

So, we thought it would be a good thing to celebrate that anniversary and do a "My Whitesnake Years" tour and when we were done, people from all over the world began asking if we'd be willing to do a run here or there and we went to Scandinavia, Spain and there is actually more stuff in the pipeline for next year also and of course now to the United States and it has been a lot of fun so far."
