The Wall, Live In Berlin was filmed at Potsdamer Platz, Berlin,
Germany on July 21, 1990. Potsdamer Platz was the "no man's land"
that sat between the two Berlin walls which separated East from
West. By the time of the concert, 250,000 tickets had been sold
in advance and over 50 countries had signed on to broadcast the
concert live. For fear of riots and injury, the concert gates
eventually had to be taken down letting in an extra 100,000
people for free. The concert would also serve as a benefit
for The Memorial Fund for Disaster Relief.
The opening sequence showing the enormous stage, the massive white
wall, already 3/4 built, and the vast sea of people was quite
awe-inspiring. For the opening number, "In The Flesh,"
the Scorpions are delivered to the stage
(which is basically a two lane highway) via a white, stretch limo.
What better band to open the show than Germany's own Scorpions,
who were still one of the biggest metal bands on the planet in 1990.
From there, it is a non-stop appearance of musicians and actors
who were brought in to sing the songs, and act out the parts.
This was more of a grand theater production, on the grandest of
scales, than an actual rock concert.
Ute Lemper, a successful German singer and stage actress, takes
the lead on "The Thin Ice" and sings beautifully
