I think it's probably in their top 3 albums. It came at a time when they were really at the top of their game (not saying they're not now but it was different then). A good solid production and a quality mix of songs. I particularly like Arizona. Great riff and a little different from their other material. I have it on vinyl still from whem it came out. Does the cd have the guys strutting towards the camera in their leathers ? Wasn't the cover artwork done by Helmut Newton who died last year ?

Overdose come to Krefeld. How far is the train station from you home?
You don't have a license. I was thinking about getting a rental car???

Scorpions shows are a good invetment. I highly recomend them.

We want to meet you and get a few pictures. Can you come to the party on Thursday night? See the German Shows Topic.

STILL LOVING YOU (Rocks)
I can sleep to many of the Scorpions Albums.

hey gsantana!
I've answerd in "Germany Shows". didn't you see it?
YES; I COME TO KREFELD!!! Can we meet alltogether? In the first row ok? I'd really like to see some of the FOS!

I have a train station in my town. It's not the distance its the price. With ticket and koncert-ticket it would be about 100 Euro. It's too much for me
And I'm only 17, my parents wouldn't let me go alone and nobody wants to come with me, because it's so expensive or they don't want to got to the koncert

by **gsantana** » May 10th, 2005, 8:00 pm

Dark_lady great to know we will see each other in the front row.
I would suggest that we also meet in Frieburg before the show.
I was told front row is standing room on the floor. It is best to be close to me if you want to get up front. I can always push my way to the front row.
We will look for you. And don't be afraid to say HI. You will know us when you see us.

by **dark_lady89** » May 10th, 2005, 8:09 pm

Yes, it's standing place. What kind of ticket do u have?
I'm not shy, believe me!

by **gsantana** » May 10th, 2005, 8:17 pm

Dark_lady. No Tickets yet. I am going to get one at the venue.
We can stand together. Do you they have mosh pits at the Scorpions show?

Just Kidding.

Overdose. We need you to come to the show. Don't give up.
This is a chance of a life time. You can do it. Keep working the phones.
ROCK Concerts will not last forever. You will feel sorry for not going.

by **Overdose** » May 10th, 2005, 8:26 pm

I try but I don't believe that I can go.

by **dark_lady89** » May 10th, 2005, 8:26 pm

Sorry, what are mosh pits?

by **zar** » May 10th, 2005, 8:46 pm

To Gsantana, thanks! Zar

Moshing is when the whole entire crowd moves to the music.
People also run into each other and push eash other as well.
It a lost art form and very fun. It is a good way to reduce stress as well.

Crowd surfing is also part of the mosh pit. However, I am to big for that.

Do you know what I am talking about when it comes to mosh pits?

Bad Boy running wild or Blood Too Hot is a great song for moshing.
Wanna try it at the show? We might need to give Toshiko the heads up before we start so she can run? My wife is also not into it and would push me into the PIT to see if I could get out.

Just an Idea.

by **dark_lady89** » May 11th, 2005, 8:41 pm

LOL... gsantana! German shows aren't so crazy... i think the security would do sth. against... Don't know...I only were at Open Air concerts.
But Crowd surfing sounds great!
I tought you mean, wheater there are frays... NO! SCORPIONS HAVE POSITIVE ENERGY AND THE WHOLE AUDIENCE IS LIKE A BIG FAMILY!!!

by **gsantana** » May 12th, 2005, 8:45 pm

Dark_lady I guess we will hold of on the Mosh pit.
Don't want Security on our backs.

Is it easy to get to the front row at Germany shows?

by **dark_lady89** » May 13th, 2005, 1:05 pm

Yes, at open air concerts it's easy... i don't know about shows in a hall...
at my last concert in Halbdertstadt, i was on the place before it was allowed. (by chance...) and saw the sound check!!
but i think in halls it's not so easy.

by **gsantana** » May 13th, 2005, 1:41 pm

We can try.

Rock and Roll.

by **dark_lady89** » May 13th, 2005, 3:12 pm

Yes!!! when do you all come to Krefeld?

by **gsantana** » May 13th, 2005, 3:54 pm

We have a tentative plan of taking the early train from Frieburg to Krefeld on June 4 @ 8:30 am arrive @ 12:00pm. Then we need time to check into the hotel.
Then I guess we are open. Did you want to meet some place? There is a beer garden at the place we are staying??? We will also need to find tickets for the show. I am quite sure standing ones will be available. Do you have any suggestions? Imelda, Toshiko, MadDog and myself will be traveling together.
Unless we can all fit into Nicksharksor Adrains car or unless I rent one.

by **dark_lady89** » May 13th, 2005, 4:07 pm

We will arrive c. at 3 o'clock pm. We can meet at the koenigspalast. i'll send you my cellphone no° in a pm ok? so we can arrange the meeting. at 6 o'clock you can entry the hall.
a question: why don't you buy the tickets in the internet? what's if you don't get any tickets? but you will, i'm sure.

by **Weronica** » May 13th, 2005, 4:32 pm
