In Short
The video is from 2009. A camera crew escorted the band for a week. The band is talking about how hard it is to be on the road for many months. Matthias says when his son asked him when he would come back home after he was on tour for 6 months, he told him round about 3 more months... and this was so hard. They are in very comfortable hotel suits, but this is their PRIVACY, when they are on tour. This is the only privacy they have. (should not we, the fans, respect this little bit of privacy?) When their women/girlfriend are with the Scorps, they have rare time to spend with them. Klaus is happy, that Gabi respect his rock life.
They played with the Berliner Philharmonicss and it´s another level, if you play Rock'n'Roll or classic music. The band has to practice, to play their songs with the orchestra.
They are getting the award "goldene Henne" for Wind Of Change.
In the video you see how much the travel and like Rudi says, you need to be "waky, waky, waky" every time, doesn´t matter how much sleep they got the night before.
James and Pawel are the third generation of Scorpions. In all the years, they are very close friends and they can count on each others. In the beginning of their carrier Klaus had a flat tire and no tools in his old bus. He called Rudi and he came with his also old car and changed the tire. Klaus knew, just a very good friend would do that and that he can count on Rudi.
It ain't over til the fat lady diets
