For the band, this evening became a major milestone in their European career. Before a sold- out house, Chalice thrilled the audience with their energetic performance and their unmistakable reggae sound--as a band that was still largely unknown in Germany at the time, opening for Jimmy Cliff.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChalice's mastermind, guitarist, and singer \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWayne Armond\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e recalls: \"In 1984, we embarked on our very first European tour. We were signed to Ariola Records. After several very successful shows in Germany, we were invited to perform in Dusseldorf as part of the Rockpalast concert series, opening for reggae legend Jimmy Cliff. We played to a sold-out house and an audience that had never heard of Chalice before. But with our dynamic and energetic performance, as well as our catchy reggae songs, we took this wonderful audience by storm.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo this day, Chalice continues to bring its very own, unmistakable reggae sound to the world. Four of Chalice's founding members and longtime companions have since passed away. However, their musical legacy and their defining contribution to Chalice's unique sound remain unforgettable.
