Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators, Support: Monster Truck

SLASH is a name that didn’t need an introduction if you lived during late 80s and early 90s – GUNS N’ROSES was blasting out from radios and stereos; it wasn’t just the many girls who were in love with Axl Rose and/or SLASH they seemed to hit it off with a large audience. He’s bringing out second solo album featuring vocalist Myles Kennedy (ALTER BRIDGE) and THE CONSPIRATORS. The album is called ‘World On Fire’ and was out in September 2014. After his US tour, the artist came to Germany for only two shows. So it was expected that both shows were sold-out and the Cologne Palladium was really packed, already when support act MONSTER TRUCK entered the stage.

Combichrist & William Control

Tuesday evening, 7.30 pm. The doors were already open and I was expecting a lot of people being there for COMBICHRIST. It was nothing like that. While waiting for the band to perform there were about 20 people there. Yeah, I was used to more people wanting to see Andy LaPlegua and his mates live. I remembered waiting in line even when it was cold outside. This time it was nothing like that. But fortunately more people arrived soon so that the jokes about getting a private show were blown away.

Peter Heppner – Acoustic

There is only one Trinity that makes me want to visit a church and this is the Trinity of As: Architecture, Arts and acoustic concerts. On this evening there was not much to admire regarding the first two As – being in a Protestant church (with a capacity of approximately 800 people) the furnishing was meagre, but I finally had the pleasure to see and hear PETER HEPPNER perform and thus enjoy the excellent acoustic of this venue. For the singer himself it was the first time to give an acoustic concert and so it was no wonder that he was quite nervous before he entered the stage, especially as he had caught a cold some days ago. The show was nearly sold out.

The Neon Judgement

Back in the eighties Heerlen had a New Wave Café that was called Inpoet by most people. Every Friday DJ Kitty played the most obscure record during the weekly dance evening event. Sometimes there was a band performing like THE NEON JUDGEMENT in 1985.
