still cant believe this performance was 20 years after their formation... most bands after 20 years they're gone but scorpions at this time was still at its peak... awesome..
There will never be another 'SCORPIONS'!!!!! Hope they change their minds about 2010 being the last tour and lp. The rock world would never be the same without them. Thanks 4 sharing.
i saw them in 81 with Geddy Lee (not playing...he was with me incognito) and Geddy said, "wow, put some round sunglasses on him and a geeky shirt and he looks like me" and Ged was a bigger star back then than Klaus..so it was very self depricating of the Gedster to say so.
Meine Klaus had been inderviwed once near 2008 and he said"We just played in London and in Paris and there were young kids rocking out to songs that were written way before they were born. It is amazing." i think that scorpions are more than a music band and just rock.they are LEGENDS
Matthias Jabs is the best guitarist and showman in the business. This band had perfect chemistry and tons of energy on stage. You can tell in all their videos that they are having fun together and it's more than just a business. Great bunch of guys. Scorps forever!
I'm glad somene else out there appreciates Matthias, who I always though was the #2 guy, right behind Eddie Van Halen...I saw Scorps on "Blackout", "First Sting" and "Savage Amusement" and they DESTROYED EVERY TIME....
@SpikeMichaels LOL- Matthias Jabs the 2nd greatest guitar player ever ? Right behind Van Halen ? LMAO. Ever heard of Dave Mustaine,Richie Blackmore,Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Steve Howe, David Gilmore,Randy Rhoades etc. Please don't make us laugh. While Jabs is a decent player he will always be simply a tailgater to Uli Jon Roth and Michael Schenker.
@HighMindedLunacy LOLOLOLOL...a decent guitarist and a tailgater to Uli Roth and Michael Schenker. Look at the history books man. The Scorpions were shit until Matthias Jabs joined the group. Ive heard the Scorpions prior to MJ and after MJ joined....two totally different bands and sounds. Jabs brought the heat....Uli Roth and M. Schenker couldnt stay sober long enough to contribute anything to the band. Jabs will kick your ass High Minded!
Do you really think the Scorpions would have had the same level of success with any of the aforementioned guitarists you mentioned? They had their own style that worked for their own bands....never would have fit in with R. Schenker and the Scorpions. Matthias was a classically trained musician, and R. Rhoades was learning to be a classically trained musician...none of the others on the list you mentioned were classically trained.
My friend, who's a hot ass chick, partied with these dude's in, uh...87 (Savage Amusement, or '88, whatever?)...she said they were perfect gentlemen...
I saw them in 84 and I was 16 and I was very good looking girl, but by that time I wouldn't like to Klaus to be no gentelmen I would love to have th oportunity to know him and ~!@#$%
you obviously don't listen to music well, listen to them!!...scorpions kick ass...but if this was faked...they obviously would've sounded better live :X
Why do you think that? I have played guitar for 15 years and it sure looks like and sounds like it is live to me. If it were pre-recorded why would they add mistakes and blatant off-key solo.
i fuckin love the start when the guitar is just fuckin wailing and they're fuckin standing there not givin a shit! ... its so cool. BAD BOYS RUNNING WILD!!!!!!
1984,oh,man,what a year,i was locked down but i got to listen to METAL,WHEN SCORPS would come on it would bring happiness to me,see i had access to RADIO,FUCK'N AYE-get the fuck outta their way........"yeah im a bad boy"....
Saw these guys the other night - sounded better than they did in 85...and that's no shit!!! Awesome show, rudolph must be drinking some serious energt drinks, that dude does not stop rockin!!!
Yeah! And even more amazing is that the band is 43 years old this year! (even though they didn't have an album until '72, they formed in 1965!) They're awesome, always have been, always will be!
GODS!!!!!!!!

Up your bunghole. Are you infering that they are faking. The off-key notes should make it obvious, especially in the solo.

Hey d@#$head, open your eye, they are using a wireless set up. You can SEE the plugs in the guitars AND the wireless packs on their straps.
