I've been a huge fan since 1980 and I first saw the band in Edinburgh, Scotland during their Blackout Tour. Last night, I saw The Scorpions in Doha, Qatar as part of their Peace For All Acoustica tour. It was an absolutely amazing concert and the beach-front setting was perfect. The sound was excellent and the band were on top form. It was the Acoustica DVD live - dancers et al!
The experience was made even more perfect as I got 2 Meet and Greet passes from the organisers due to my Unkle Fezter's Ear solo project CDs being chosen to be played as part of the pre-show. I met all of the band and got the opportunity to talk to them and to give them my CDs and some T-shirts. The band were amazing as they took time to talk to each fan, sign autographs and pose for photos. The Scorpions have been a major influence in my song writing and it was an absolute privilege to meet the band. Thanks for coming to Qatar and I hope that you like the CDs!
Hi Scorps & Family of Spiders,
I was just avoiding the cold weather outside and starting looking up some of my favorites with the Scorpions 1st on the list. Nice site. My God it's been at least 8 years since I've seen you guys up close and personal. Thanks to some good friends and as well personal friends of yours I had the opportunity to meet you back stage after climbing over the 5 rows of chairs in front of me.
I never had to opportunity to speak with a top rock band on a personal basis with limited interuption as this was before they started the meet and greets. I didn't have a back stage pass but, with the help of a long time personal American Friend of yours he made it rather easy for me.
I stood in the back stage room with a few others and low and behold Matthias walked in first and walked right over to me and we spoke for a while. Talk about butter flies in my stomach I was in awe.
Matt was a perfect gentleman and didn't rush to speak to others, thank you Matt for making a sad girl feel on top of the world. I was crushed after a recent breakup with a long time boyfriend and even though I ended it by my choice I felt so lonely and unattractive as It's hard to forget someone even though I knew I had to, to avoid anymore mental & controlling torture from my former Dave.
You made me a dream come true for me to come up to me first and spend a good amount of time with me not in a hurry to run over to visit with another gal. A couple of the girls told me that you were really checking me out and when you eventually went to sign a few autographs they said you walked trowards them, but had your head turned looking at me. Thanks sweetheart for making me feel pretty in a very dark period in my life.
Thanks also, to Klaus, Rudy, Herman it was a pleasure to meet the best German rockers in the world and people from the country my family came from.
Keep Rocking,
Blue Eyed Blond

YOU ARE THE STARS THAT NEVER GO OUT!
YOU ARE OUR STARS THAT SHINE IN OUR LIVES .... I LOVE YOU....
PLEASE, WHEN ARE YOU GOING COME BACK TO BRAZIL?
I WANT; MUST TO SEE YOU PLAY AGAIN!
EDNA BY CAMPO GRANDE-MS BRASIL
ALOT OF KISSES TO YOU IN SPECIAL TO MATTHIAS.
I have to agree with Jude, I love the Deep and Dark tunes of SCORPIONS this time of season. The ones with the spooky kind of riffs, like Hit between the eyes, Alien Nation, Black-Out, I include No one like you on that cool list also, after seeing the video. I've never heard a SCORPION song that I didn't Love.
Saliut à tous les fan(e)s, avec ceci pour Josiane: oui, j'ai oublié de citer Matthias parmi les "great" musiciens ( toujours) trouvé par Rudolf
Que Matthias , les fans et vous- même me pardonniez!!!
C'est peut-être parce qu'il est toujours là que je ne l'ai pas nommé.
Mais en tant que guitariste( lead/ rhytm guitars):c'est le bon candidat pour Scorps. Son jeu de gratte est excellent et reconnaissable , donnant avec Rudolf: l'identité musicale( si belle, ...)de Scorpions
De toutes façons, Matthias est le troisième pillier du groupe renforçant le duo SCHENKER/MEINE car il est là depuis (très) longtemps.
J'adore ses poses de guitariste lors de concerts: le délire...!!!
J'aime le groupe( entier) et je Still Loving SCORPIONS FOREVER:LE groupe de ma vie!!!Oh Yeah!Ouh!!!
i wish u will play forever, u rock!!!! u rules!! i love your songs...
live scropions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi the Scorpions! I love your music! I discovered you when I had 11 with the song "Wind of Change". Now, I'm 16 and I "Wind of change" is my favourite song (with "Send me an angel"). When do you go in France? I would like to see you in a concert! I would buy EVERY CD's you make, but I can't! Good luck for the rest!

Dear Scorpions,
How are you all today?
Maybe swimming in the sea?
Acoustic music live is so beautiful, and I really wish I was there...
I heard you're gonna play "Maybe I ,Maybe You." Yeah, right...it's an acoustic live so the song is perfect for that. And I will probably never be able to listen to it...sob, sob, sob...
Anyway, have a rocking many-dancers-on-the-stage acoustic show tonjght.
I pray for the safety of your shows and for a safe trip during your Middle East tour.

Dear Scorps 'n fans,
I'm glad that you're still rocking the world. My little brother is a great Scorp fan and would like to say that your music is very emotional. He is a fan of anime 'n wonders if your song "Maybe I Maybe You" would fit in as a soundtrack for the upcoming anime series: "Saint Seiya: Hades Chapter Inferno" by Toei Animation which is due to be released in December, Japan. He is a fan of the series and points out that certain verses like "key to the stars" 'n "Soldiers of love" have relevance in the series. Go to "www.toeianimation.com". I wonder if the guys at Toei would accept you. Sorry for offering such weird proposal but it's worth trying. Gotta go... I would personally like to say: KEEP ROCKING 'N STING LIKE A SCORPION!
