Scorpions Live

Went to see the Scorpions Sunday night up in Wolverhampton. Amazing gig. The loudness of the sound had the walls and floor vibrating, which if you were leaning on the wall, like I was, led to a really strange feeling! Great to see both Michael Schenker and Uli John Roth both appear with the band, and all of them looking like they were enjoying it too. Was the last night of a short UK tour, support was provided by Uli's band on the night. Uli is a truly amazing guitarist in my opinion. His set was nearly an hour, and the Scorpions played for two hours. Only downer was drum solo was much too long, but gave the others a chance for a break.

They did not play this song, which is much mellower than most of their stuff! As mentioned on a previous post, this is now "our song", even though I only discovered it years after meeting my lovely wife. This video was recorded in Beirut at the end of the civil war there. Enjoy When you came into my life:
