AC/DC - “Porwer Up Tour” Europe 2025 - Special Guest: The Pretty Reckless

Sparks - “Mad Tour 2025”

Despite their musical diversity, from Glam Rock to the Synth sound of the 80s to today’s Electro sound with dynamic beats, the SPARKS have retained their own unmistakable sound. As more visitors than planned wanted to see the SPARKS, the venue was moved from Cologne's Club Gloria to the Live Music Hall, also located in Cologne.

The Glass House Museum & Special Guests: Iamimperfect, Deathtrippers

Scarborough may be best known for its sea air, castle and the donkeys on the beach (I did see some), but this weekend it played host to something far darker. The Corporation Club transformed into a haven for black-clad revellers as part of a two-day gothic festival Resurrection Hell N Back featuring a Friday club night with DJ Victor Helsing and a Saturday showcase of live bands: IAMIMPERFECT, DEATHTRIPPERS and THE GLASS HOUSE MUSEUM.
