2009 Germany Tour (Hötensleben)

[Rūta]

"I’m not joking, the audience was really delighted – when it was over.
But you won’t believe what happened next – the return of the evil: Angela"

I had so much fun reading your review.... The night we left Germany was veryyyyy rainy, so I can easily imagine how the venue did look....

I'm happy you had a great time and I like people who know how to make fun even from the worst things!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Toshiko,

thank you for your words. Maybe you or someone else can help me uploading my photos. I never did something like that before - but I'm sure it's not complicated. Unfortunately most of my photos are wrong exposed - I used also one of these cheap japanese cameras (just a joke). No, the problem was, that I didn't want to take one of my professional cameras, because I thought something like this was not allowed and they are too heavy anyway for a man in a crowd on a concert. That's why borrowed a simpler one, one you can put in your pocket, but I was not familiar with it. I search for some features, for example the spot measurement, I couldn't find.
But I got some good photos!

greetings

Hans

Hi Hans,

If you make your album file on this site's Gallery, you can upload your photos in there.
You need to login and make your album file and click uploadfile and then post your photos.
You need to make them small to upload them though.

Or you can upload them on the Photobucket album.
You need to sign in to have account and you are ready to upload the photos.
You can choose newer uploader or old uploader there.

Good thing you didn't bring your good camera because the security guys often stop you to use good cameras.

I think Roberta knows much better about how to upload the photos.
Where is she???

The easiest thing is make your photos smaller and send them to the Webmaster.
(Sorry Webmaster )

Toshiko, Roberta doesn't know any more than you or anyone else on how to upload the phots for here. She would tell you that herself.
What you suggested to Hans was perfect. Especially the photobucket idea. That, I feel is one of the best photo managers ever. As well, of course, as the photo gallery here.
It's not hard Hans. Can't wait to see your pix!! heheheheh

Hi Hans,

Thank you so much for your review, and I admire you that against certain circumstamps you could use your brilliant sense of humor.

Hans my sweetie, I don't want to abuse your trusting me, but I am a big-mouthed girl, and that is in my heart, is on my lips, althoug this note isn't for active Fosers of this forum but:
How is it possible that some fans aren't able to care their fanmates, and not to realise that those fanmates aren't on the correct place in the correct time?
If I know my fanmate's phonenumber and I see clearly that he isn't there where he should, I surely drop a cal to him:
"hey guy, do you know where is the place, come here, and here, and here."
Forgive me my lovely-soul Hans tobe misterious but publish of your deal, but I am more than shocked and sad now.
Luvr yah and your family my friend.

Oh Hans! Your review is so funny!

But they still have to proof if they can make also as good music.

Would love to see it!
I hope you won't get ill after standing in the most wet place in the venue. If I'm not mistaken you were with children? or I'm wrong?
Ok, waiting for the pics! Btw, was it WindowsXP or Vista?

That's right. Hans, where were your kids? And what about the M&G? Hello?

[Guest]

What a refreshingly different review, Hans !! Absolutely worth waiting for. I laughed aloud (a rare phenomenon these days...) when I had the image of you conquering the PERFECT place to watch the show : it was a matter of life and mud, yes, but who wouldn´t make sacrifices to be near the band ?

[Scorah]

I*m on the way back home... my review will follow, I did not take so much picture of the show....

good show, fantastic audience......

[mzzkatz]

while you all were rockin' with the Scorpion LIVE, we were at the Rainbow partying for M's 40th bday and I loaded the jukebox with 4 Scorps albums so we were Rockin' too!

@ Sarah... oh girl, I got some more goodie swag for you, you are going to love it!!!

[ScorpsDiva]

Hi Hans ... thank you so much for your review. I share Toshiko's words when I agree that it was a funny and cheerful review. I am sorry to hear about all the mud but happy to hear you had a great time seeing the Scorps. I'm looking forward to seeing your pics and reading more reviews from everyone else too.

Any word on the set list?????

[Hans]

Hi everyone,

oh, so many questions, but in the moment so little time. Just in the moment I am at work.
Hi George (<- right?), as I told before, I think the setlist was the same as in Singen. Here is the Singen list:

Coming Home
Loving You Sunday Morning
Is There Anybody There
Make It Real
The Zoo
Coast To Coast
Send Me An angel
Holiday
321
Tease Me Please Me
Bad Boys Running Wild
Kottak Attak
Blackout
Big City Nights
______________
Still Loving You
Wind of Change
Rock you Like A Hurricane

I can't remember any difference. Wait a moment, between Wind of change and rylah the audience sang 'happy birthday to you' for Willi, one of the organizers, who had his 50th birthday on saturday.

Yes, my kids where with me, they were standing in the first row. About the M&G I will tell you in a PM.

The singer Angela hasn't got a band anymore - as far as I know. Her former band was 'Angelas Park'.

Galya, about the Wacken fire fighters look at this video:

Watch on youtube.com

It is in german, but the pictures speak for themselves. They simply say that Wacken has 1800 inhabitants, but every year about 50.000 come to this village for the festival and everything is peaceful. Besides the metal bands the music group of the fire fighters play there as well and the metal heads like it. In this video you can see it at 2:57. Sorry, there are better videos about the fire fighters in Wacken, but this was the best I could find in short.

[BigMarkus]

Ok, thanks Hans, hope u will have time soon for a review!

[Alizee]

Thank you Hans for this fresh and really nice review: almost got the impression to be living it as well but staying cleaner of course

[JüZe]

Klasse hans, superlustig!
Hoffe es gefiel
Bis denne

[JüZe]

Audience: 3.500!

[Scorah]

Audience: 3.500!

Bist du dir da sicher?

[Hans]

Audience: 3.500!

Bist du dir da sicher?

Moin,

das berichtet zumindest eine Braunschweiger Zeitung

http://www.newsclick.de/index.jsp/menui ... d/10689739

sagen wir mal so, das sind dann die offiziellen Zahlen

for the non-germans: This article isn't worth to translate. They just say the Scorps played there and the audience was 3500. That's all

[Scorah]

Hey I wrote my review in german... need some time to translate it to english.
I'm hopefully ready with it tomorrow...
