Candidate at a german quiz show

[Hans]

I don't know if anyone wants to hear this, but maybe someone thinks it's interesting.

Yesterday I saw a quiz show, one you can compare with "who will be millionaire' (I think that's the english title).
The difference is, here are two candidates.
I will tell you, how it was for me:
Yesterday came an about 60 year old man and his son to the show. The man had long hair and looked a bit like a rocker. The quiz master told, that's obvious he's a rocker. But he is not only a rocker, he was also drummer in a rock band - a long time ago. On the screen they showed a photograph of him. He is sitting behind the drums and in the background you could see a VW bus. On the right edge of the photo you could see the letters S and c.
Then the quiz master continued, he was not drummer of any rockband, but the first drummer of the Scorpions,his name is Wolfgang Dziony. Then Wolfgang told a bit about his time with the Scorps. He told, he was the drummer on the first album 'lonesome crow' and decided afterwards to have more time for his family and left the band. But he is still friends with our Scops (I guess he meant Rudi and Klaus) and this since 44 years.

How cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I always wondered how he'd look now..

[Invitado]

I wonder what might he be thinking now about his choice, it was a hard one, I guess we all go through the same election at some point.

Maybe it´s easy as a woman , you can be sure you´ll never regret about your decision

How sweet of yours to share this cool story with us Hans, thank you.

Yes Adriana, you're right.
This kind of choice is never easy in life, mainly in the world of artists, it always have been and will have remained a huge dilemma: my family or my carreer?

Yes, perhaps the decission is more obvious for women, although a hungarian femalesinger reported once that she might have got marriaged when she was young, but finally she didn't, because she admited to her self that her carreer always would remain more important for her than a family-life, and she didn't want be neither a bad mother nor a bad wife.

Hi,

yes they discussed a little about that. Wolfgang said, there are not a lot bands that make it that long. Especially there are not many wifes that can take it for such a long time.
Then the quiz master made a little joke, they will see that he gets a lot of money even without the Scorpions. All he has to do is to give the correct answers to some questions.

[Invitado]

And he did ?

[Hans]

FANTASTIC!!! I love this!! I wonder if the boys know he is on that show???
How very kool for you Hans tho, to see this and to hear about being with Scorps for the first album!! Yes I bet he wishes now that he was still with them!! Who was to know that they not only would become very famous after that album, but that they would still be around today kicking ass and even still recording? Too bad he is not making a guest appearance in Greece!!!!
I hope he wins all the money tho. Then he can go see the boys wherever they are at the time he wins!!! He probably can get in for free as a guest of the band too.
Thx for sharing this my love!!

[Gabi6912]

Hey really?
Has he reached the 10000 Euro-level?
It is great, he seems a very smart guy.
GO WOLFGANG, GO!
Wishing him tobe winner.

Wow!! It's really cool!!! Thanks for share it!!!
Go Go Wolfgang!!!!!!!

[Scarlet]

That is so cool!!! Are there any videos of the show on youtube?? I couldn't find anything...

[Scarlet]

While searching for videos of the show, i found videos of a recent concert with Wolfgang Dziony. Here they are:

Watch on youtube.com

One of the videos has this description:

Am 04.04.09 war es wieder soweit.

Die mittlerweile schon legendären Ballroom Hamburg Allstars waren zum dritten Mal unter der Regie vom Gründungsdrummer der Scorpions, Wolfgang Dziony "on Stage"

Mit von der Partie waren diesmal:
Wolfgang Dziony
Lothar Kosbü
Frank Jordan
Eileen Jordan
Markus Tomaschewski
Yogy (Jörg Pidun)
Andreas Seeling
Andre Stephan
Ulli Hofmann
Daniel Glomb
Patrick Dziony
Hanjo Gehrcke
Goofy (Rohbert Wegner)
Eric Stout (NL)
Marcos Aguia (UK)

I don't speak german, but i could understand that this concert was at the legendary Ballroom Hamburg Allstars and they mention the drummer of Scorpions "on stage". And then a list of other names, including Patrick Dziony. Who's Patrick, does anyone know?
