Gruenspan, Hamburg, Germany3rd October 2023
Universum25 - “Horizont in Flammen Tour 2023” - Support: MandelKokainSchnaps
German Unity Day with a public holiday for citizens in Hamburg. The city is full. Especially the centre, and especially Große Freiheit. However, I was here because of a more expected event, namely the concert of the German super band UNIVERSUM25. That night it was the second concert of their tour, and it took place in the legendary Gruenspan.

Archive - “Call To Arms & Angels Tour 2023” - Support: Russell Marsden (Band of Skulls)
People had to wait quite a while for this tour to happen. Originally planned for autumn 2022 to support the current album ‘Call To Arms & Angels’ released in April 2022, the tour had to be postponed due to colon cancer disease of Darius Keeler. But now, people were up for an extraordinary show since ARCHIVE is well-known for their very special concerts. Support on this evening was Russell Marsden from BAND OF SKULLSs.

Kulttempel, Oberhausen, Germany30th September 2023
Electromaniax - A night with Rotersand and Frozen Plasma / Two Bands One Show
Somehow, Peter Jurjahn, the head of the Kulttempel in Oberhausen, always manages to offer his guests something truly special. With ‘Electromaniax’ he brings together two bands on stage that have been indispensable in the world of electronic music for what feels like an eternity. In addition, he does it in a way that has probably never been done before. Bringing ROTERSAND (RS) and FROZEN PLASMA (FP) together on stage at one evening promises to be a massive party. However, the uniqueness of the event goes further as these two bands do not just perform one after the other. They blend their sets, perform together, and support each other during their performances. This is indeed something very special. It was clear from the outset that I had to be present at this undoubtedly unique event. Even if I (like many attendees on this evening) hope that this won’t be a one-time occurrence.

Le Petit Bain, Paris, France15th September 2023
And One & Waiting for Words
Having two legends of Synth Pop on the same bill was worth a trip to Paris. AND ONE and WAITING FOR WORDS have for sure a lot in common. Both formed in the early 90s, with all the challenges that go with surviving three decades in the music world. Both became references and cult acts in their respective country… and both have a strong sense of Independence and doing things their way. Surely, the worldwide success of AND ONE is far above the French act but being from and in Germany explains it all with this style of music.
