[Gabi6912]

Adry, thanks for your fast report.
Am happy for you to see an amazing show, and to meet the guys.
We are discussing the details on Skype, as usual, ok?

Del, thank you for your objective, and honest opinion, too.

[Nadin]

Thank you Del for your review Well yep, that's exactly the comparison of russian and european audiences I've made after seeing european shows.
And...wow! we'll burn the sky, in Trance...mmm... if I ever hear them live again? I hope so...
Anyways, I'm so happy that the guys are in a great shape, esp that Klaus is totally fine now

And I'm impatiently waiting for the reviews!!!!!

I wish I was there, the few times I went in Germany, were "geil!".
Here's a nice one found on the web, enjoy Nadin ( super quality)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIMdH3YRfiQ&feature=related

[Nadin]

oh, hehe, thanks Alizee - yep, I already watched it and others today ( instead of tons of planned things to do - but after all, can I spend at least one day for myself, for my soul )
So I really enjoyed the videos, the performance, Klaus' magnificent voice which was indeed, perfect! - once again I plunged into that magic atmosphere, felt that spirit... and it's really great!

Now, some more reviews, pleeeaaassseee

LOL, I´VE NEVER BEEN TO A SHOW IN RUSSIA, BUT I CAN TELL THAT THE AUDICENCE IN SHOWS IN GERMANY AND AUSTRIA IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE YOU FIND IN SPAIN, PORTUGAL, ITALY OR EVEN LONDON (I PREFER THE GERMAN OR AUTRIAN ONE, WHERE NOBODY PUSHES OR BEATS YOU AND YOUI HAVE ENOUGH SPACE TO BREEEEEEATHE)

[Nadin]

Well, Marina, yep, actually my european experience not so big, so I made a conclusion about the audience only from my few visited shows, where yep, the audience was really calm compared to Russian one. Haha, but yep, I've heard that Italian, Greek and Spanish fans are as hot as Russian ones So maybe I'm getting old, but I prefer to have some space around me during the show now

[Scorah]

Hey sorry to the persons who tried to catch me by mobilephone in Stuttgart.
I went to the shops in the city and had forgotten my cell phone in the hotelroom.

To the ones who had been to both shows. What do you think was the better one Stuttgart oder Frankfurt?

Sarah

i think as audience....Stuttgart......
as sound and arena Frankfurt

then i will write in my review......but organization in Stuttgart was a total mess, and i'm sorry to say this about germans.......but in stuttgart organizers create a danger situation for people who want to get in the arena.

[YNWA]

Part I
I decided to write the review as soon as I can, so that the emotions will be still so strong!

Well, friends, I had an amazing 4 days in Germany (and not only)! It was quite hard to make this whole trip to come true – no tickets (sold out), ebay-paypal problems, car rental problems, some people, whom I bought plane tickets just.. didn`t came and so and so.. Adry knows in details (haha, sorry bro!) But it all ddin`t matter now, cause everything I felt on 12th and 13th was amazing!

Quick intro.. I landed on 10th, took the rented car and then visited Luxembougr - OK, Metz – I love France, I`m sure now!,Saarbrucken – nothing special..for a couple of hours, till I got Mainz, where I slept for a night.I liked the city – my first impression of Germany (never been there since now). I was lucky there were some festival of wine or.. wine market (I don`t know) near the river. Weather was awesome, full of young people, some german yummy meals and.. lot of wine! Perfect! Of course, without knowing, I ate Curryvurst haha.. cannimalism On the early morning I went to the center, took pictures in front of some old buildings and cathedrals and find out a market-place– so amazing! Again lots of people and lovely smell of fresh vegetables! I love the spirit of this town. It didn`t catched me so much with the architecture (I`ve seen better places), but I loved the sweet, melodic “buzzing” of happy people near me! On road again –Heidelberg! Left my baggage in the hotel and... fell asleep! I was tired and the weather was sooo hot! So, at 18:00 it was already perfect for a walk – nice town too... Suddenly, while walking, I was surprised by a spring rain so.. went inside a pub.. And even though I told the very friendly waiter that I want weak Beer!, he didn`t seem to listen to me and gave me strong one … Wow, that german beer.. Just one.. small.. but strong and I was.. wohooo..

12th came! I was surprised I didn`t have butterflies in the stomach in the very morning when leaving Heidelberg to Stuttgart. As if I`m not going to a concert hah We arrived in some hours, Adry and the Crazy Italians (I`m so happy that I met them) were still traveling. At noon I made a quick tour by car in Stuttgart and yeah.. I`ve already strarted to feel them.. the butterflies! So I went in front of the gates and 12:30 and started to wait.. (too long). I didn`t know anybody so I asked where are the fans (one family) and one guy alone from. The guys was from Germany and he didn`t speak English and the family - from France and it seems they got not few concerts behind their backs So we started talking, it was fun and time passed quickly. Later I noticed a girl and she looked to me very familiar – yep, Delphine. Quick chat with her too! It was a pleasure to meet you, Del! Soon THE ITALIANS arrived, so everything was perfect – surrounded by friends and faces I know ( I just could wave to Sarah, cause she came later). So...waiting, waiting, waiting!

The gates opened at 18 and the whole organisation SUCKED ! I haven`t ever thought that Germans can make such an awful organisation.. they are known as very strict and well-organised people.. but not this time. The very front gates were opened but there were another in the venue. So, it didn`t matter, actually, if you have been waiting for 5 hours to be first on the queue, cause everything became a mess. People were pushing, pushing, pushing.. Then, when they opened the other ones and when we got into the hall, there were (?!!?) some place as a kiosk, where you had to show your ticket to a guy and to get a bracelet, so that you can be allowed to get into the front rows! MESS! Nobady knew that and.. gosh.. everything was a huge mess! Finally, fortunately.. we got into the front rows. On the left corner of the T-walk Curry – ... tired.. smashed.. but HAPPY ! More to wait.. Supporting band was quite good! I liked their sound, reminded me of Rammstein. The vocal – crazy, crazy, crazy guy!

It was nearly 21:00 when the show started! I forgot everything and the adrenalin rushed into each of my body cell! I am Scorps-addict, I know it for sure! The show was more than amazing! Guys was well-rested, had a lot of power.. They were non-stop smiling, running.. wow! Klaus' voice, as you have alredy noticed, was TOP! Clear and … magical He noticed us – Italians and me, as well as Matthias (not me, but the Crazy italians), so they came a lot to our corner. I got a drum stick from Klaus – not especially to me but trown to the audience and fell in front of me, so the guard gave it, towel by Pawel, and a specially given hand-in-hand plec by Rudy.Klaus took my BG flag and greeted all of us with fist (the stage was very very close to the our corner.. one hand distance!). You probably may already know, but we got We`ll burn the sky, which brought tears in my eyes! I didn`t expected it and.. THANK YOU! Now, when I`m writing all of this.. I became sad, cause it`s not fair such a band to quit.. They have more power and desire to play than everyone in the world So sad...

The show was brilliant! Audience – pretty good, above my expectations (I`ve heard Germans were not so.. passionate as Russians and Greeks!). The french family, I met in front of the gates, were on the front of the T. After the show we took a picture and exchange our e-mails! Everything was.. more than perfect! I`m such a lucky girl and has such a good devil on my right shoulder (you know ).

So, after the show we went to the hotel of the guys. There I could greet Sarah in personal, finally.. and.. JURGEN! We sat to drink something, to wait for the guys and to relax. First, if I remember clearly, Rudy came – took a photo with us and signed some stuff. He was obviously in very good mood and payed attention to the not small crowd of fans hehe. Later James appeared (both of them – J and R were constantly moving from the restoraunt (may be) to their rooms, so we saw them a couple of times). So again, with James – photos, autographs and smiles

Pawel passed but he didn`t stopped

Then we started talking and talking.. with Jurgen, who I met for a first time, and Adry! Nice friendly conversation, nteresting stories and.. PICTURES! Why I emphasize on pictures? Cause around 2 or 3 am, not sure.. I was very tired, I was just listening to Juze and Adry talking about the guys, and at the same time I was looking the pictures we`ve made some hours before. I heard Jurget said “Klaus Meine, Klaus Meine”, but I didn`t pay attention, cause I was thinking that they are discussing something about the band. It wasn`t so.. of course. Klaus with Gabi were coming. Klaus waved to the other fans and stopped to us to fist-greet us... What did I do with this camera I was holding in my hands?! NOTHING I freezed, I freaked out (silently) and didn`t know what to do.. I act like a retard and I`m so sorry about that.. I don`t remember if I said something.. But I really forgot my words even in my native language! I feel so stuped now.. and so sorry Klaus, sorry, sorry, sorry... Hope he didn`t though it was somehow disrespectful, cause I didn`t even standed up.. I didn`t know how to react.. blah.. Sorry again, sweet Klaus!

At the very end, before leaving the hotel, we saw Matthias and Rudy (again) with their ladies. They waved, didn`t stopped, but smiled at us and went inside the elevator. So, we took a taxi to the hotel and tried to get some power for the coming day and show!

...to be continued...

Curry, 3 words!! YOU KICK ASS!! Thank you sweetie. Can you post it now on the MJ page, pretty please? So many on FB do not come on here for various reasons but they still would love to read this. Thx again.

[YNWA]

Cristy.. not a problem but how can I post it there? As a note?

Sarah, sorry that we couldn`t hear.. I`ve tried to call you a couple of times, cause you`ve told that your hotel is near us and I was by a car, but.. next time, hopefully! Btw, Stuttgart was much better for me!

[Guest]

Thank you so much, Curry, for your review so far!! I simply adore this kind of writing, full with details and chronological order. You took me with you in that German tour, and of course, the concert with ....We'll burn the sky... sniff , the best of the best...

Poor girl, how could you get so mesmerized by Klaus's presence? Maybe it was too sudden, it happened too quickly. Anyway, what I have read and heard, he must be used to seeing all kinds of reactions from the fans > from screaming and jumping to a motionless wax cabinet - behaviour

Waiting for the continuation

[Nadin]

Woow! Curry!!! yeah, thanks for the part I! Amazing!!!! It's great that you had so many adventures ( well, I guess now, when everything went ok, we can call those your troubles as adventures, without which your trip wouldn't be so spicy ). And I'm happy that you could meet so many FOSers as well!!!
And sorry for that bad organization ( yep, it also surprised me, I'm now even thinking of taking my above words about european shows back...), so hope it won't become a tradition in further shows
Still it's great you was in the from row, and that the guys noticed you, the FOS team and of course I'm very happy to hear that they were in a great fit!!!
Yeah.. we'll burn the sky...I'd also cry if I heard it live, and I'm even envying you a bit that you were lucky to hear it

And, as for your meeting in the hotel - first of all, it's just great you could meet them! ( yep, like "somebody" said - fantastic ). And, hey, dear, how I do understand you! coz as you know, both time I was lucky to meet Klaus, I also acted like a fool( and I had 2 extremes of my behavior - 1st time said nothing, second - said everything I wanted at few seconds ) coz of overexcitement and too many thoughts in the head , and I perfectly know what you're feeling now... Coz then, when you're realizing that he is standing just next to you, it's hard to control your thoughts, and you're really getting lost and hypnotized, when you look into those blue eyes...but I'm sure Klaus understood everything you wanted to say to him, no matter what and how you said it, and how you acted, even if you didn't say a thing - he understood it by your eyes, by those emotions on your face I'm just sure in it ( besides he knows you, and he surely understood your state at 3 am after a long day!) Anyways it's wonderful that you could spend a few minutes with the guys!!!! I'm sincerely happy for you, sweetie!!!
And sorry you didn't take pix on your camera - it's understandable though - well - if it makes you to feel better a bit - I also forgot about my camera both times during meeting the guys

Ok, now smth tells me that the most interesting is yet to come - so...waiting for the next parts

[Adrian]

i will start to write a first part of my review.....cause my eyes are closing......

friday 11:
i started my travel at 8.30 when i took the train piombino-pisa airport.
i started the travel with the idea that it was a "weird" travel cause i had to fly to north germany with the first flight (Pisa-Koln),then 2 hours break before the next flight Koln/Bonn-Friedrichshafen to return to south German
once there i had to wait one more hour before to take another train to reach the city where a friend of mine lives (Salvatore).
The travel in train is very very nice cause during the whole trip the train passed next to Kostanz lake, and i advice to visit that place, i went there when i was a child, damn, so many years ago ...........
Finally i reached the city of Salvatore at 21.00........12 hours to travel from italy to germany......maybe next time it will be faster to go by car
once there we had a very tasty dinner in a typical german restaurant with german food.......ahhhh how much i love it!!!!!!
During the dinner i got a call from Kadra and we talked few minutes to know tha planning of the following day.
After the dinner we return to Salvatore's home, where at that moment the other my dear crazy italian fans arrived already from Milan.......
we had a very nice talk till......3 am.......and we realized in the morning that we talked for too long and that we were too noisy cause a man who lives in the above apartment came to reproach us of the previous night

ok, that's all for today.......
tomorrow will follow the other 2 days
