The Sisters Of Mercy & Support: A.A. Williams
Just a few days after the show in Munich, we experienced another show of the current tour, this time in Cologne. Enough was written about both, THE SISTERS OF MERCY and the support act A. A. WILLIAMS, in the concert review about the gig in Munich. Therefore I limit myself here in the review about the gig in Cologne and only write about the performance of both bands.

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?

Backstage, Munich, Germany
13th October 2019
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.
