Nothing More – “The Stories We Tell Ourselves Tour 2017” – Support: Psycho Village

Last Wednesday night, the cosy Cologne Club Luxor was packed to the limit (aka sold out), because people wanted to check out another hidden gem from the American Rock scene: the band NOTHING MORE. These four guys from San Antonio, Texas are on heavy rotation in the refreshingly diverse American radio station landscape, and have been nominated for three Grammy Awards for their latest record ‘The Stories We Tell Ourselves’. Yet, as the rather small concert venue indicates, they managed to stay mostly under the radar here in Europe.

Yello

Last Saturday we were taken to a time warp by the legendary YELLO! In the 1980s Dieter Meier (72) and Boris Blank (65) under the name YELLO pioneered electronic music. Blank, the sound visionary, paired timbales with tape loops on the synthesizer, collected sounds and crossed them with Bach's church organ: “What follows the lightning is the thunder!” This was at the same time a return to the once-ostracized ‘musique concrète’ as well as an anticipation of techno.

Stone Sour - “Hydrograd tour 2017” - Special guests: The Pretty Reckless

Once again in December, another killer line-up was scheduled for Cologne’s Palladium venue, and even the (by regional standards) heavy snowfall could not stop most metal heads from attending the sold-out event to have the chance to see Corey Taylor and his “second” band.

Festhalle, Frankfurt, Germany
6th December 2017
Five Finger Death Punch + In Flames + Support: Of Mice And Men

News about the double headliner tour of IN FLAMES and FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCHmade me completely happy, because I really like both of the bands and haven’t seen them live before. When I came to the Festhalle in Frankfurt, I got a kind of feeling that the show is totally sold-out, because a shopping centre opposite the hall and a square next to it were full of people. This evening, 6,500 visitors came to the show, and they had a lot of fun.
