Biffy Clyro – “Ellipsis Tour” – Support: Aviv Geffen (Blackfield)
2016 was unarguably the year of BIFFY CLYRO. Although these Scotsmen have been around in the music business since 1995, it has only been this year that they've managed to conquer the German market completely. Their songs are on heavy rotation on several radio stations and they've hit the stages of a great number of festivals in 2016. The October/ November concert hall tour included five dates in Germany and much to everyone's delight, there were three additional BIFFY CLYRO shows in Germany in February 2017, one of them was Bochum. The show was supported by Israeli artist Aviv Geffen and his band BLACKFIELD.

Kreator and supports Sepultura, Soilwork, Aborted
“Dee Dee Na Na Na – Saturday night and I feel the air is getting hot…“ Wait, that was something else from the 90's, but turn that dance-tune into a Thrash Metal influenced version, all bangers would join in yelling it loud and joyful in face of a Metal Fest like this. What a package in the really great and nice Mehr! Theatre next to the Elbe river. The huge hall is well-frequented when already for the first band of the evening, ABORTED.

Trentemøller & T.O.M. and his Computer
A night of Danish electronic mixtures at the Essigfabrik! TRENTEMØLLER brought his latest album, ‘Fixion’, to the good people of Cologne. And, like the album, it’s a warp-speed assembly of a million different sounds, but with the added spice of five performers ready to session like their lives depend on it. T.O.M AND HIS COMPUTER presented ‘Small Disasters’, his latest EP, as opening act.

Einstürzende Neubauten
A few days prior the prestigious gig at the brand-new Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN started their mini tour at the OsnabrückHalle in Osnabrück in the north of Germany. Of course this was also a test run for their landmark show in Hamburg but also a great chance to check out NEUBAUTEN in an area which they didn't gave a visit since 1991.
