In reality I am a tough lady

Hi Gabi,

believe me, she is! You should have seen her on the photos of the Herrmann Rarebell party. Very ladylike she's standing there in the middle of international FOSers drinking beer out of the bottle. It's good that we haven't seen the photos two hours later. I bet Lenita is still standing there and all the men are lying under the table

How well you know me, Hans ....

Oh haha, what a brilliant depiktion you gave me Hans!
You really cracked me up.

[Toshiko]

Thank you , Cristy for your kind words.
I was about to lose the willingness to work on the photos.

[Emilie]

Toshiko, so great pics... I thank you very very much for that! I enjoyed very much to look at them I feel like to be next Tuesday even more!

[Hans]

Working on the photos driving me nuts!
The PC is slow and the photos are blury and ....and....I need a comfort......

Hi Toshiko,

there's a reason for it. You shouldn't use these cheap japanese cameras just joking I got a sony camera myself

No, indeed, that are really good photos!

[katerina]

Thank you Toshiko !!
As I've said before in another topic, I saw you up front, at the Athens show, in front of Matthias. I tried to call you but you couldn't hear me.. Hope to see you at the next Greece shows!

[Deleted User 13688]

Oh no, please don't Toshiko, unless it's too tiring. I would not want you to become sick from posting all those pictures. It is exhausting.
Even tho it's not said often enough, what you do when you see the guys is beyond measure and we appreciate and love you for it!! Because you do so much for others when you see them and not just photos either, so.....

[Toshiko]

Thank you all for your kind words!!!!!!

Now I got energy back!
It is early Saturday morning, 2:02am in Japan.

I will work on the photos and post them soon!

By the way, it is raining so hard here around my area and many people have to evacuate from their house because there is possibility of landslide disaster.
My place is ok so far, but we might have some blackout time because of the thunder.

Anyway, thank you agian everyone for comforting words!!!

WOW!! THANKS!! Great photos!!!!!

[Toshiko]

Hi Katerina,

You're welcome.

I'm glad you enjoyed the albums.

I wish the stages were lower, but it has to be that high or the people who had to stand the back side of the place couldn't see the show at all.

Mad Dog and I had to wait for people to move out of the parking place at the Athens' venue then Uli came out from the backstage and gave some fans autographs and took photos with them.
I think it was good to be crowded there then so that we could meet Mr. Roth there.

And I knew Mr. Michael Schenker's GF and we had a little chat and she offered to take a picture with Michael.
Thank you!!!
When I met Michael, I also remembered Tobias, too.

It was like eating All-You-Can-Eat Spareribs at the Hard Rock Cafe with Berry-Smoothy.

Anyway it was so fantastic to visit Greece and I enjoyed Olive fields and Agean Sea and food and sightseeing places and, and, and......now it's all memories....

I need to save money really hard for next time because Mad Dog's wallet is really light now.

I wish the Scorpions give us stamps or coupon like if you collect 10 stamps or 10 coupons, you can get invited the show.

I remembered one more thing.
When Mr. Meine threw a drumstick toward me, I dropped it as usual then the security person behind me picked it up and handed it to me. That was really kind of him. Thank you, sir!
And opposite experience happened in Athens.
Again Mr. Meine threw a drumstick toward me and I was about to grab it then the emergency service officer jumped up and grab it before it reached in my hand.
Well, it was ok for me because I bet he was a big Scorpions' fan, too!
It's just surprised me that the emergency service officer did it.

Great photos and review Toshiko. Boy, if the Scorps gave out stamps for every show a person attended, you and Mad Dog would have invitations for the rest of their career!!
Hey that emergency service dude who caught the drumstick figured that you already had one so he was going to get one too. Like you said he was a fan too. He was lucky to be assigned that show, eh?
And girl, I am so envious of you to see Greece. The sea, the sights, the monuments....sigh. Oh my gosh!! Someday I will be there and my girls will be my tourguides!!!
So, what is yours and Mad Dog's next place, Toshiko? America for the Coast to Coast tour? You better be real selective, I have a feeling they are going to be chosing some special places for their WWLive 25th Anniversary. What do you think?

[RobertaForster]

Wonderful pics Toshiko! You did great shots! Thanks for sharing them! ありがとう

[Toshiko]

Hi Cristy,

No, no, the nice security guy who picked the drumstick was at the Larissa venue.
Anyway, WWL anniversary place should be world wide, shouldn't it?
Well, I hope our next time will be the US because Mad Dog needs to see his own country.

Hi Roberta,

Wow, you wrote Japanese!すごいね！
You did a very fast job on photos last year and I just couldn't do it like you did.(**)
I still have some photos I wanted to post, but I'm sure it will take a few days at least.
I want to read the Xanthi show and the German show's reviews, too, you know.
By the way, do you remember my friend who is from Brazil?
She just went home this month and came back to Japan the same day we returned.
She said her 5 year-old-daughter played with dogs and just chacing them was fun enough for her.
My friend's parents have a lot of dogs, like 27.
Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed my albums, too.　ありがとback!
