BLACK ‘N BLUE
Seeing and photographing this show was very special to me. BLACK ‘N BLUE is in my top five of favourite “homeboy” bands - we all originate from Portland, Oregon - and I have been waiting for nearly 20 years to see these guys together again playing all their rockin’ hits from the old days. The boys brought it home for me and the rest of the head banging, high-fiving crowd with “The Saint” (Jaime St. James) leading the way looking and sounding better than ever! Before I cover this show, let me go back into a time warp some just to bring those aren’t real familiar with BLACK ‘N BLUE up to speed.

The Muts
It’s not often that I meet a band whose name presents a complete contradiction to who and what they really are. THE MUTS are definitely a rare gem, a diamond in the rough, a parody of sorts, and I feel honoured to have met them - another contradiction - as initially I didn’t think they were even going to come close to being my “cup of tea”.

Beatsteaks & Turbostaat
If you are looking for the best German live band, you have to think of the BEATSTEAKS definitely. Already DIE ÄRZTE asked in their song “Unrockbar”: “How can you sit still during the BEATSTEAKS…?” With their combination of Punk Rock and Hardcore elements, the guys from Berlin climbed up the top ten of the German charts and made it being support of the SEX PISTOLS. Their latest album ‘Limbo Messiah’ was released last year already, but the scheduled tour had to be postponed due to health problems of singer Arnim. Now finally the rescheduled tour had started and people could enjoy their fabulous live performance.

miLú
To a new album belongs also belongs a tour. As miLú is anything but ordinary, this couldn’t be a concert like any other. The atmosphere is an important part and it was indeed a very intimate atmosphere in the Zeche Carl, where the first concert of the tour took place. And it should become an unforgettable evening…
