Kraftwerk – 3D Show

With the 3D show the band toured several cities. On this evening the show took place at the Palladium in Cologne. The show, like all the others already before, was sold out and a very long queue was standing outside. As the tickets were personalised and checks took longer than usually it took a while to get in. Every visitor was handed a 3D glasses in an envelope with the bands logo. Needless to say that the place was really crowded.

Nightwish

NIGHTWISH is probably the most well-known band from Finland, together with other acts such as APOCALYPTICA and HIM. The band released the latest album ‘Endless Forms Most Beautiful’ on March 27th, 2015 and that naturally became the core of the massive show that kicked out the current global tour on November 13th in Espoo, Finland. The record earlier topped the charts in Finland and Czech Republic and is recognized as one of the band's best work. The album's peculiarity is also in its super-long composition ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ lasting 24 minutes, that was also partially performed on the gig. http://www.nightwish.com / https://www.facebook.com/nightwish

Mono Inc. & Stoneman

Saturday, 14th of November, 2015 – the day after the unfathomably awful and pointless incidents in Paris. I’m sure that I was not the only one which thought about going to a concert that day or better not. Indeed, it would also be an evening with friends and wonderful music and thus I made my way to the Backstage in Munich.

Nightwish, Arch Enemy & Amorphis

With their awe inspiring music and bombastic live shows, the symphonic gods NIGHTWISH headlined one of the blackest festivals this summer, the M'era Luna festival in Hildesheim, Germany. They presented a colourful setlist featuring quite old songs next to some new tunes from the recent ‘Endless Forms Most Beautiful’ album. Now the band around maestro Tuomas Holopainen was returning to Germany for a blast! NIGHTWISH were traveling heavy bringing along the Melodic Death Metal bands ARCH ENEMY and AMORPHIS as guests. The Oberhausen arena was really packed and the audience ready to celebrate a big party.

Diary of Dreams & The Beauty of Gemina

It was the first snowy day in Berlin and people were lamenting and shivering, the public traffic had several problems, but nevertheless, the club was more than 80% filled. The audience wasn’t as young as I had expected; most people were in their forties or even older. Most of the people were clearly members of the Gothic subculture, often dressed in band shirts and all enjoying the bands peacefully and in a good mood.
