Gary Numan - “(R)evolution” Tour - Support: Kanga

I’ve seen GARY NUMAN countless times over the years, and it’s fair to say my music interest stems from me hearing ‘Are Friends Electric’ on the television at the tender age of eleven years old. In 2018 he embarked upon a short orchestral tour, accompanied by the Skaparis Orchestra at such prestigious venues as The Royal Albert Hall. This was a fantastic concert, for me second only to the ‘farewell’ gigs at Wembley - can this be followed?

Wednesday 13 & SOiL

Due to the incredible traffic on this sunny October Sunday, I needed over three hours for the 100km to Munich and missed DOPE but arrived just in time for SOIL and since the evening started early at 18:30 and would last a long time with four bands being on stage and I had to go back all the way to be in office early the next day, I had to leave before STATIC-X went on stage. WEDNESDAY 13 haunted Munich accompanying STATIC-X on their tour honouring Wayne Static, together with DOPE and SOIL. After listening to WEDNESDAY 13’s new album ‘Necrophaze’ and having a very interesting interview with him, it was time to hear the Duke of Spookiness and his band live.

Diary Of Dreams - “Hell in Eden” Tour 2019 - Support: Us

The first, more extended part of the “Hell in Eden” happened to be already two years ago when the album was released on 6th October 2017. Due to different reasons it was not possible for me to attend more than one show back then while I was totally in love with the new album and so the announcement of this mini tour with three dates in mid-October was a perfect chance to fix that and go for another journey into the dark with DIARY OF DREAMS.
