Here`s what I`m talking about....

I`ve just seen this picture: http://prikachi.com/images/882/4615882T.jpg

This is a copy of a law document/report- lawsuit claims a Bulgarian because he went to a Scorpions concert. Of course, it not nowodays but during the communism.

The guy is a friend of mine, huge AC/DC, and as a whole, huge rock fan, (CSKA fan as well :mrgreen: )

In a few words what the document says:

The information is given by the agents of Communist Party. Daniel, known as Belo, went to a concert of Scorpions in Hungary. He gave an interview for a Federal Republic of Germany`s TV channel, saying that there are a lot of Bulgarians who are fans of heavy sound but due to the regime, it is impossible for this kind of bands to visit our contry.


Then, Belo is "described" as a leader of AC/DC fans in Bulgaria and one of the main millitans for... listening to this DECADENT music :lol: Please note... DECADENT - favourite word of the party. I`ve seen it in other documents and articles as well :lol:

So, fellows... Lucky I am, that I live in a democracy and nobody can make me problems, because I love and follow some band.. some DECADENT band :lol: :lol: :lol:

I thought it will be interesting to post it!

P.S. I found it in his FB page. His comment below is that nowadays his daugher has a Scorpions poster on her wall and her son is a die-hard fan of AC/DC and none of his kids could understand that years ago, his daddy had such a problems because of his passion and music preferences :wink:

No, he didn`t go to jail.. hah.. The piece of sheet above is something as an official report and during this "era" it was definitely not good to have such..

By the way, I`ve just started to look his FB photos. Pics when he was young and rebellious.. Comment below one of the pic says: Me and Alex Scorpions. It seems, from the others`s guy nick "Scorpions" he was a fan of our beloved band :mrgreen:

Oh yes, I recall similar situations in Hungary, I used to live in communist era till being 20 years old.
I always have respected those rockers' passion, who didn't mind to take some problems for their heros.

Thank you for the interesting post Curry.

LOL!!!
There was a similar document in former USSR:
http://forever-rock.narod.ru/others/dirty_list.jpg

It's a list of a foreign and USSR bands which had ideologically harmful songs. Scorpions were also included there. And guess what was Scorps propaganda in communists opinion??? Violence :shock:
"From ODESSA With Love!!!"

oh, yes, I also saw this USSR document, and also laughed at the reasons to forbid the bands in the USSR :mrgreen: ( and yep, still I wonder where did they find a neo-fasism propaganda in Julio Iglesias' songs :shock: :?: )
Though, I thought that in the other "comminism camp" countries the situation was a bit better - so now I see that it all was the same...aghh funny and sad at the same time, though..
Thanks Curry, for sharing :D
Best wishes, Nadya

It's great to be here, to see you all!

There was a time when John Lennon was being watched by the FBI as a criminal just because he actively opposed the war in Vietnam.

Last time I saw this list I didn't pay attention to the accusation of The Clash of violence. :think: It's strange that they weren't accused of anticommunism or anti-soviet propaganda. Their lyrics often raised political questions..
Even crematoria need international affairs managers..

Well Nadia, you sayd something to think of:
perhaps in Hungary the situation turned abit better from the second half of 80s, because our Scorps' very first concert was in 1986 in Budapest.
They were allowed to play, and it was a huge rockevent of that summer.
I exactly remember the excitement of the media.
The guys gave several interviews.
It was the very first time, when I was influenced by Rudolf, and Klaus, because I had thought before about rockers just negative things, and I fully realised what superintelligent, kind guys I was hearing. :lol:
I never will have forgotten this emotional recognization, evenif I became a fan just 7 years later. :think:

Could anybody who speaks Russian, translate (even more or less) documents posted by Curry and ScorpfanUkraine? I barely can read the cyryllic script, and from the second document I could only read a few artists/bands, like Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Scorpions, Tina Turner, Donna Summer or Yazoo, but have no idea what they were accused of :)

I wanted to know if U2 was listed ..
It probably says that listening to their music will make you evade paying your taxes
And tell others that they need to pay more taxes that help charities :x
