Laibach
The movie Iron Sky boosted the popularity of Slovenian cult band LAIBACH a little more as they produced the soundtrack for this ironic sci-fi flick from Finland. The release of the soundtrack album this spring was completed by the 'We Come In Peace' tour by LAIBACH. Fortunately the band added a few more dates this autumn, even with yet another release up their sleeves: The compilation 'An Introduction to Laibach / Reproduction Prohibited'! Enough reasons to attend one of LAIBACH's breathtaking shows.

Lionel Richie & Oceana
LIONEL RICHIE today is known as the king of ballads, having loads of hits under his belts. It all started many years back with THE COMMODORES maintaining more of a funky and danceable sound. But with time Richie's interest turned to the romantic, emotional type of songs which surely helped his eponymous solo debut getting the status it achieved and established a reputation that lasts until the present day, decades later and with success having multiplied a hundredfold at least. His latest milestone is the release of 'Tuskegee', an album featuring only reinterpretations of previously released songs in cooperation with various guest artists. 'Tuskegee' also is the reason for him to return to the stages of the world and especially Germany where he was last seen live three years ago. The show in Halle (Westfalen) was not totally sold-out, but it was about 5.500 people showing up to see this special show which was opened by OCEANA.
