Stahlwerk, Düsseldorf, Germany
30th October 2012
Gotye & Jonti
When GOTYE succeeded with their international hit ‘Somebody that I used to know’, they caused a big stir turning that they were booked for a concert at the big Mitsubishi-Electric Halle in Düsseldorf. But the big hype was soon over, even though the band deserves a lot of attention, and so, the show was moved to the much smaller Stahlwerk, where just a few hundreds of people showed up to enjoy the concert.

Hessenhallen, Gießen, Germany
2nd November 2012
Kreator, Morbid Angel, Nile & Fueled By Fire
Early this Friday evening, a crowd of extreme metal fans was waiting in the heavy rain in front of the concert hall in Gießen, to see their favourite thrash and death metal bands. Anyway the rain couldn’t drown the obvious smell of alcohol and flush away the pleasant anticipation of the fans. Those who hadn’t got a ticket in advance were waiting in the long line before the box office. Already at 6pm, the doors for the venue were opened. Although it was a Friday, the crowd was considerably small, since many people were still getting home from work or were stuck in the traffic. Consequently, there were not many people in front of the stage when FUELED BY FIRE started to play at quarter past six.

Delain & Sin7sinS
After a successful tour in Europe and Latin-America, Dutch symphonic rock band DELAIN went back to the studio to work on their third studio album. After ‘Lucidity’ and ‘April Rain’, their album ‘We are the Others’ was released this summer. Initially, support would be taken care of by Amanda Somerville (TRILLIUM), an American singer-songwriter who is known for her collaborations with several European metal bands such as AVANTASIA, EPICA, KAMELOT and AFTER FOREVER. Unfortunately, this support act was cancelled about a week before the show. Fortunately, SIN7SINS, was able to fill in their spot.

Gibson, Frankfurt am Main, Germany
27th October 2012
Steel Panther & Kobra And The Lotus
This Saturday night was without doubt one of the coldest nights this fall – at least on the outside. Inside the Gibson, a just recently established music club in the heart of Frankfurt/Main, the crowd was warming up for one of the hottest Glam Rock concerts and a wild party. The show already sold out a month in advance, and there must have been around thousand people who were packed in the club and arrived on time to start the first band play. Since it was one of only three tour dates in Germany and also the most southern location, many people had also travelled some distance to get there.
