2009 Hungary Tour (Budapest)

[Rūta]

He will be sitting on a golden chair , cross-legged, wearing a Scorpion t-shirt, a scorpion scarf around his neck (maybe a black beret on his head), a huge picture of the Italian flag with a symbol of scorpion in the middle hanging on the wall behind him, and he is holding a pet scorpion in his hands.....silent and proud, and he considers himself the number one die-hard-fan of the band!!!

And we cannot ignore the long line of former Scorpions fans, currently Adriano- fans, too, wishing for an autograph or a picture together.... ok, that´s enough, I´m

ok....here i'm.....i'll start my review......hey......to everyone that is reading .....and in particular Ruta .....it's late now and i don't know if i'll finish,ok?

Monday morning, went to work, and i left my office at 2pm to catch the train to go to Rome airport(about 3 hours) and then to catch the plane to fly to Budapest.
At the airport i met Luky and Nagyi (i'll use your username,ok?) and as first night they told me about the press conference of the scorps.
Second day.....the Scorpions day!!!! Me and Luky went to Nagyi parents home, to have lunch there (very tasty) and there i met Gabi and Kristy (first time i meet her)and we talked about the show and the band...... while Luky went to the airport to pick up Juze to the airport.
Then we met Luki and Juze right to the venue of the show, cause we went there by car with Nagy,his brother,Gabi and Kristy..........
First funny story......while we were walking to the venue (but we still were in the street) Nagy's brother told me "hey,look at that fan, he look like Matthias Jabs" (we were about 20 meter from him).......well after few meter.........we turn our face and we said......."but he is Matthias Jabs"!!!!! so we went to him to take pictures and i asked him "hey do you remember me?" and he replied with "yes, sure you're my italian friend" (Hey Ruta, you already wrote it!!!!!!) and then he remember that we met last time in Vilnius, and i was with Ruta (i think he liked your chocolate ) .
Later we met with Luki to the enter of the venue........and well........after few minutes we were inside, for the soundcheck.
There was Matthias on stage, and after few minutes all the band was there to play.And ...second funny story........we (about 10 fans) were singing with Klaus the songs just in front of him......when suddenly during "big city nights" and then "Tease me Please me" he approached the microphone right to me to let me song the chorus......it was funny i was singing, and suddenly his microphone was close to my mouth, and i screamed more than i can......and then he did the same with others fan there
After soundcheck,we went to Klaus to take pictures, and i had to let him sing a picture i took with him to Strasbourg......he took the picture and said "oh, a dedic.......to .... Adrian, right?" ......i was totally shocked than i can only replied with a stupid "yes.....Adrian"........he not only remember me.....but my name too .
Well after Klaus.....i met Pavel too that he saluted me like an old friend .........well what can i say, the guys are always very kind with the fans, and everytime they surprending me!!!!!
After that we had only to wait for the show, first row.....as always, and ready to rock......the band was in a great mood, jumping, screaming and smiling,they played for about 2 hours.....another great show, audience was very great!!!!!
Ok, i'm not going to write here the setlist (cause i could only copy what others did already).
I just would like to say that i hope to meet again very soon all the friends i met there........and that i didn't meet.......i know there were fans from the forum that i had no chanche to meet.....next time guys, ok?

About my holiday in Budapest........it's very a beautiful city, and i advice to you to visit one day if you never been there.........but don't rent a car if you want to keep safe your life

A bit more patience for Kosice review..........ok Ruta???

[gsantana]

WOW, great review.
Sound like fun was had by all.

Cool that you ran into band outside the venue.
What did they do at the sound checK?

[Gabi6912]

Haha Adry, you are always so sweet tobe sincerelly surprised that all bandmembers remember you and your name, but you shouldn't be lol.
It would be surprising if they didn't recognize you lol.
Just Uli is who doesn't remember you lol, but it is just because you haven't been frequently enough in those Scorps shows where he is a guest, and at his own shows lol.

Ok just a quick, funny story here fans for you to understand why I mentioned Uli here:

Adrian went to his show in Italy not so long after the Strasbourg show.
I had asked Adry to give Uli my greetings.
He kept his promise, and after he mentioned my name and greetings, Uli looked at him with a surprised face and asked Adrian:
"Where are you from? Are you from Hungary?"
Lol, a similar story never could happen with Adry by our Scorps. They know him as their own hands, as hungarian say.

ok....here i'm.....i'll start my review......hey......to everyone that is reading .....and in particular Ruta .....it's late now and i don't know if i'll finish,ok?

Oh Jürgen my dear friend, wishing you a speedy recovery.
You shouldn't go to work tomorrow, but you should stay in bed after drinking a big mug of hot tea with honey and lemon.

[DeepAndDark]

About my holiday in Budapest........it's very a beautiful city, and i advice to you to visit one day if you never been there.........but don't rent a car if you want to keep safe your life

Hey ! It's really easy to drive in Budapest, it's more dangerous in the country side lol
2 tracks for 3 cars, it's dagerous !!! believe me
But what is more dangerous it's to take Hungarian's habbit and return in France (for me), wow

Really, I drove in France (of course, it's my country) but in Germany, Austria, BeNeLux, England, Spain, Italy, Slovakia, Slovenia, Swizerland (the worst drivers, sorry Jürgen ) and Hungary as well. But where I'm afraid to drive it's in Paris and in Italy !!! Adrian, the italian's drivers are crazy, they drive too fast, there's vespa and scooters everywhere, they respect nothing.... and you're afraid in Hungary. Why ?

Italians drive like Schumi with his Ferrari, Hungarians are only small Baumgartner lol

Sziasztok!

[Gabi6912]

Hi Everyone, Szia Delphine,

Hey really girlie? Did you drive in the countryside too in Hungary? Where you have been exactly in Hungary besides Budapest?
I live in Szeged.
Have you been there?
Anyway, what did you do in Hungary years ago?
Ok, but perhaps it might be a private talking of us, sorry Fos.

[JüZe]

Hi there!
So let me try to do my review.
In january i make my idea to go to Hungary and buy the ticket to fly to Budapest. So Luky would buy the tickets for the show for me. And no problems with my "family-gouverment"
After a long time to wait, finally its April!
First i was in Montbéliard, another gret night to remember and i realise, that i was at the last concert in 2008 and th first in 2009; great! So in april, 21. after a 2 1/2 hours trip to Zürich i take the plane to Budapest. After 1 1/2 landing in Budapest i and see the second time Luky! But the first i never know him
It was a great succes to meet him in person, because we write and know us the time only by skype . . .
So we drive to the hall and we have to wait for the promoter for passes. Fiorst we meet matthias, very friendly again, with shakehands and after time the hungarian FOS with one italien boy Nice and warm words with Gabi and Arian and i was lucky that everything is okay. Seems we knows us all for a long, long time before...
In the hall we meet the soundcheck and it was great to see this part of the evening. In Montbéliard i saw only a short part of this and never make some pics. But now from the beginning. Matthias alone on the stage, play guitar so easy, fast and loud. Than the other bandmembers came in, go on stage and play together. Sooo easy and professionel: super! After this a little bit time to stay with Klaus, Matthias and Pawel . . .
The show in the first row was absolutely great. You have to know that i'm most in the middle of the audience or in backsite! But in the future i have to stay first row!!! Yes Luky and Adrian, that's the best place to have party with the band. What can i say about the concert? Everything was perfect. The Scorps was in soo good condition, full of energy and so funny. It was a great pleasure to see the band to play like this! The audience was great to, singing with the band so many times and songs, great Hungarian peoples!!!
After then we go in the city to eat something and i meet bedder Gabi, Adria, Nagyi and his brother and Luky!
Than to the hotel and check in!
Good night . . .

[JüZe]

II
After a short night back with Luky to his home, meet Adrian again and we have time to talking about our LOVE: the SCORPIONS!!!
Remember when i was young(er) and was alone on the most Scorps concerts in the 80's and 90's
But thanky you www, i found so many Scorps fans all over europe and worldwide!
So two days later we drive to Kosice with 8 peoples in two cars. So i have to look a little bit the country. We made some stops and than we arrived safetly in Kosice!
Looks funny this new great Steel hall in the middle of some houses, like a UFO
We go in and ask for our passes, ask for the promoter ( the same like in Budapest ) and Luky made his best as an politician! He made it very well and finally we have our passes ( "FAN" ) and Guest stickers for the meet'n'greet. We go in and we have so much place Change some words with Achim Schulze, the soundengeeniring since 1979, friendly to!
So, i would go to the M'n'G but the others want to stay in front of the stage. Gaby and Laszli want to go too the M'n'G . . . but i was go around the hall when the gate's open. So i have to wait a long time before the M'n'G, but a mistake and no Gabi and Laszli. So i went in and the band go crazy about so many fans with any special askes about pictures and autographes. I would made some pictures, but my akku was empty, so only 3 pics . . . But some words with Rudolf ( remember me from Montbéliard ) and James and Pawel ( "we met us" )
Than the concert was a little bit shorter than in Budapest and the audience was not soo like in Hungary.
But another great night to remember! More in never want to say, because everything is write from other fans here...
Driving home to Budapest, arrived deep in the night, sleeping a short, short while and my day's in Hungary was over

So, i saw two very good concerts, meet the band and so many friendly and nice peoples! It was a great experience and so amazing for me!

Thank you all for your kindness too! It's ever great to spend time with so many ScorpsFans all over the world, a real Family of Spiders!

What can i say? To be continued . . .

[Rūta]

Great Jurgen!!! Thank you!!
