Novosibirsk, 19 May

[DeepAndDark]

I wonder why did we stop creating topics for each particular concert?

Anyway, all I can tell you now is that I've been on the autograph-session and got Rudolf's autograph for Phuong. It was allowed to take only one autograph, so people had to choose whose autograph they want to have. James was sitting near Rudolf and noticed what a cool t-shirt I have. Damn, 3 hours in a queue... Though it's not that bad because I got to know one nice guy there...

So Phuong, send me your address and I'll mail you the photo.
The Photo

I'll write everything in detail this weekends.

[Nadin]

Wow, Galya! I'm happy that you've got Rudy's autograph! It's so kind of you to get it for Phuong! That's the real friendship! It's Great!
I'll impatiently wait for your report ( both about autograph session and concert impressions!)

[Inulka]

Well, I think it's stopped to create a topic to every concert here because....there r no ppl who can write a review. Galya, as u see, how many russians frequently post on the forum? I think only me and u

I'm glad and proud that u decided to present the only 1 autograph u could got this time to another person ..I wouldn't do it by myself (well, if I had an opportunity to get more than one, then no doubts, I would share ) Btw, couldn't u meet Scorps at the hotel?
Ah, and Galya, what was the t-shirt u've had that James noticed it

"Galya, as u see, how many russians frequently post on the forum? I think only me and u"


You're wrong apparently..

[Inulka]

Nope, I'm not wrong. For example, even u, Dan, since january have posted only 40 times
C'mon, I don't mean the ppl who sometimes come to read the forum, but who partecipates in forum's life in all the ways
I haven't ever seen any fan from Krasnoyarsk here, or from Omsk, or from Krasnodar..and who could write the review? Of course, most of the fans just write their reviews in VK..we may read it but not the whole fos world

[Inulka]

As I've heard from VK Scorps played Living For Tomorrow and When The Smoke Is Going Down in Novosibirsk

[Daniel Gartsman]

i think that's quite enough, 'cause the main point is quality, but not quantity=) eventually, i'm not staying so long here)

What are the ways to participate rightly?) i mean, we're checking the forum and if we have smth to say we usually do it) There's nothing new in this case..

Don't be sad, you have seen one person from Kaliningrad here on forum) i cleared myself))

[Daniel Gartsman]

That's probably truth. hope, i'll hear smth special in Vilnius=)

[Nadin]

Well, Inna,but I did post my review from St Peter's concert in the topic dedicated to russian part of the tour...did u see it? - yep, that's probably my bad that I didn't create a special topic about it, maybe I should have made it... but still...I wrote it for FOSers all over the world...
And since I'm registered in here, I am also quite often on the forum, and I try to take part in all the sections of it, but, u know, unfortunately I always have no time for posting. thus I usually manage only to read the topic, and have no time to answer in it very often... but it doesn't mean I'm not an active participant at all...
And I agree with Daniel, that the number of one's messages is not so important as their quality! It just shows on talkativeness of this member - And if I had more spare time, I think at my post count there would be much more messages than now, cause I like to chat acually

[Nadin]

And once again - why didn't they play Living for tomorrow and Smoke in SPb???? ( ok, there wasn't the 1st one in official set list - but as I know, it's symbolical exactly for SPb - so it would be logical to play it there..., - but Smoke... I saw the pic of set list in VK - it was there!!! So I can't understand the reason, why they didn't play... it's disappointing me a bit
Ah, Novosibirsk - lucky u are!

[Daniel Gartsman]

I suppose, because of Matt.. to be exact, because of uneffective tuning of his guitars..

Have you seen Tease me Please me Live video from Spb in VK? Take a look... smth was wrong..

[oldscorpsfan75]

all this farewell tour is disappointing the fans ,always the same setlist,we should desert all their shows

[Inulka]

First of all I'm not disappointed and upset that there r few russians on this forum...I'm accustomed that there r ppl from all over the world. And, yes, Nadin, I've read ur review Though indeed, it would be better if u post it in special SPb show topic...but it's OK But for example if there were created topics for all the dates of this russian tour, some topics would be empty for sure, like for example nobody from Rostov, Krasnodar and Krasnoyarsk posted here That's what I wanted to say why there were no topics opened for every date.
oldscorpsfan75, have u ever heard Living For Tomorrow?

[HANS33]

According to a very reliable source they did play both "Living for tomorrow" and "When the smoke is going down".
That is really all we can expect for the setlist. Now and then another song added, like now "Living for tomorrow" on the Russian shows. Most of us might like to see more changes, but everybody knows that will not happen. And hey, a small change like this, now and then is better then nothing. I applaud the addition of "Living for tomorrow" to the setlist and hope they will keep it for the European shows this summer.

[oldscorpsfan75]

No Inulka,never heard,surely on 26th november I will hear the same setlist of Hamburg show,I really go crazy for living for tomorrow,but it won't happen

[Inulka]

u should go to the shows years be4

Daniel, Ingo is a brilliant guitar tech who has been with Matthias for years. It's more likely the soundman's fault, as it has been before in the past.

And I wanted to add; you all get far more than WE do.....so please just enjoy what you do get. kay? After all, you just might live in Australia or Vietnam!!

[Engel-Wegweiser]

Waiting for the review from rocking Novosibirsk =)

[Nadin]

@Inna - yep, I understood your though - but I suppose we both know the main reason why there are s few russians here - it's the language problem - most part of russians don't speak english at least at the intermediate level,or maybe some of them just afraid to post here ( again, because of the language... - well my english, as u can see, is also needs to be improved - and, btw, communicating here helps me in it ), or in some case it's just russian laziness - even on russian fan site there are few reviews from the shows .
And, yep, I think Cristy's right that the problems with the sound were because of russian soundmen as usually in russia - and then we get offened that many world stars don't want to visit our country. We should learn to organize the technical moments first rrrrr .
But, once again, despite all of this, the SBp's show was fantastic! The guys coped with these difficulties and were as usually on the highest level! I got great pleasure and unforgettable memories from it

PS OMG... we flooded Gaya's topic...

Galya, please forgive us
WAITING FOR YOUR ROCKIN' REVIEW!!!!!

but I suppose we both know the main reason why there are s few russians here - it's the language problem

Nadin but before the Russian tour the fans from Russia (I'm sure they were members of VK Scorpions group) created special topic asking band to play different set. There were so many messages and as you can see all of the fans registered only for this topic.
So I have a serious question to them: WHERE ARE U NOW GUYS????? It wasn't a language problem for you then. Is it so hard to post here a review?
There are really many Scorpions fans in Russia. But since I'm on this forum (8 years already) I've seen just some reviews from them
