Mono Inc., Stahlmann
MONO INC. alone is reason enough to make a long journey for many. MONO INC. and STAHLMANN guarantee a sold-out venue as happened on this late October evening when a centipede made of countless fans waited to get inside to celebrate together.

Pain & Engel
Peter Tägtgren the man who founded the Swedish death metal band HYPOCRISY in 1990 and raised a real brand by doing that is the creative force behind the project PAIN which, contrary to his other projects, incorporates a high amount of electronic elements from different genres. Now, PAIN is on a big European tour, stopping by in Cologne for a rather small show marking the end of the German tour. As supporting act, Swedish band ENGEL was accompanying them. When I reached the venue, already a long queue was waiting outside and my only though was “How the hell shall they all fit into this small club?” Well, they all were in and it was crowded, sticky and hot! Well, guess that’s how a sold-out show turns out…

Feuerengel – A Tribute to Rammstein: Set 1 – 1995 – 1997 – 2001
FEUERENGEL is a true RAMMSTEIN cover band. During a RAMMSTEIN show in 1997, they had the idea to cover this band as original as possible. So, they became the first ever RAMMSTEIN tribute band. Not only covering the songs was important, also covering the show using authentic effects and requisites. For their shows, they use an own pyro-technician. Knowing all this one thing was sure: this must turn out as a cool show! On 14th October, the band presented their set 1 with RAMMSTEIN albums from 1995 to 2001. Following albums were presented during a show one day later. FEUERENGEL is Boris (vocals), +hors+en (keyboards), Farp (guitar), Daniel (guitar), Holger (bass) and X-oph (drums). http://www.feuerengel.de/ / http://www.myspace.com/feuerengelmusic / https://www.facebook.com/feuerengelmusic

Fiddler’s Green & Zico
FIDDLER’S GREEN celebrated their tour start in Bochum. And a lot of people followed their call. The venue was totally packed with people eagerly awaiting the German folk rockers who have just recently released their new album ‘Wall of Folk’. The evening was opened by ZICO, of course not the well-known football player but the Bavarian band with the same name.
