Stahlwerk, Düsseldorf, Germany23rd October 2010
And One, f.o.d. & Gecko Sector
Steve Naghavi’s AND ONE invited his fans to the “Tanz-o-mat Fulltime Show”, a short tour through a couple of German cities. What might look like a short tour between two albums to convert fan devotion into cash turns out as a completely different story. We checked out the sold-out show at the Stahlwerk in Düsseldorf, which also featured the support acts GECKO SECTOR and F.O.D.!

Zeche, Bochum, Germany27th October 2010
The Parlotones, Fiction Plane
To be quite honest with you, I didn’t really know what to expect from this evening since I’ve not attended a show of either FICTION PLANE or THE PARLOTONES before. Sometimes that raises anxiety for a possible fail of both bands, which is admittedly unlikely. Here I felt nothing but curiosity and it turned out it was justified.

Halle Gartlage, Osnabrück, Germany21st October 2010
Blind Guardian, Van Canto, Steelwing
The show in Osnabrück was the last one of BLIND GUARDIAN’s German tour before the band went to Sweden, Russia and Spain. But what to expect from a BLIND GUARDIAN show? I have never seen the band before. A friend told me “good Power Metal for Lord of the Rings fans…” Well, I was going to check it out! As support, they brought Swedish STEELWING and German VAN CANTO with them.

And One, f.o.d., Gecko Sector
On Saturday 16th October, AND ONE opened their current "Tanzomat Tour" in Hamburg. The venue "Große Freiheit 36" was sold out and as a special for the die-hard fans they could buy a VIP Pass (inclusive access to the VIP-area and a T-shirt from the merchandise) or an Universal Pass (inclusive Backstage access, access to the VIP-area and a T-shirt from the merchandise). But before AND ONE entered the stage, two other bands performed their support sets.
