cold*heartbreaker Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Reason I'm asking is cus I'm gonna go see them at the end of November in LA. My friend's stepdad and his friend are getting free tickets and backstage passes to meet the band cus they've known them from a while back (working at a record store I think). They're not my favorite band, but I like some of their stuff. Has anyone here ever been to a show of theirs? If so, was it good? I really wanted to go cus I'm pretty familiar with some music by them and I've never been to a concert. Yup, you heard me, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madison Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Wow. Are they still around? I didn't know that. One of my older brothers used to be a huge fan of the band when I was a kid. I have one of their albums - "Blackout." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 of course they're still around lol. they are touring soon with Tesla in arenas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumin Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I really like the Scorpions. I love the songs 'Wind of Change' and 'Still Loving You.' They are playing about 3 hours from where I live in about a month. I don't know whether I will see them or not, though. Depends on how much the tickets are, and if I have any other plans at the time.

biN Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 i only know wind of change.any other good songs to recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryne Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 "No One Like You" and "Wind of Change" are probably my favorites. I'm not a fan of them but I bought "Bad for Good: The Very Best of the Scorpions" and it's got some good stuff on it. The last three songs "The Zoo" "Rock You Like a Hurricane" and "Send Me an Angel" are good too.I didn't think those guys would still be touring, how old are they? I thought Axl might be starting to age but he's young compared to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlslash Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Kickass band. If it weren't a friday night, I'd be going with Olga n Elle in a cuple days...(damn Jewish sabbath...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teroz Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Lol they are a living joke here Thanks to a finnish comedy show, they had a joke where the singer went and got a haircut lol It was damn funny ´! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrissen Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Even though they are German, I've never been to a concert. I like some of their songs, but never bought an album. "Wind of change" was written for the reunion of Germany in 1990 and stayed at number 1 here for like 15 weeks. Back then I've heard that song too often and therefore can't listen to it anymore.

redapple Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 The guys can play that's for sure and Wind of Change is nice (but overplayed) song. But their rock song don`t have enough attitude imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon87 Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 i don´t care about them,but not in a bad way!i mean,they make good music, but it´s kinda average, except Wind of Change...i also like Rock you like a hurricane!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanGenie Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Funny thing is that they had massive success worldwide except for germany where they come from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Axl Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Yeah Scorpions are very popular in Russia.Me and Klaus Meine, Moscow 2002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brud Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 The Scorpions are amazing "He's a woman She's a man" quality in fact all the albums i've heard are really good. Was meant to go see them with Whitesnake when they were touring but didn't go, couldn't afford it.Found out that the Scorpions didn't do the gig over here anyway so wasn't too bothered although i think i missed Y&T which would have been cool.

Axl's Rose Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 i love the scorpions! i saw them about 2 years ago at the universal amp. they put on a real good show. i was surprised to that they worked the crowd the way they did. there were a lot of young fans and of course the older ones. it was a great concert. hope you enjoy the show heartbreaker.

Rumin Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 i only know wind of change.any other good songs to recommend? It depends on what kind of song you like. They did a lot of very pretty ballads like 'Send Me An Angel' and 'Still Loving You', but they also did a lot of hard rock songs like 'Rock You Like A Hurricane' and 'The Zoo.' I'd check some of those songs out, and would buy their Greatest Hits album called 'Bad For Good' if you like those songs. I'd say that the Scorpions are the greatest 'hair metal' band ever.

Cornell Posted October 30, 2004 Share Posted October 30, 2004 I listened to them a lot before AFD came out. I saw them a few times in the 80's and then again in 2003. They still rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'mtheone Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Loved Animal Magnetism album. There were several songs I liked on it--the best was The Zoo. The Scorpions were really versatile on the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancaMulas Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Yeah i like Scorpions, i mean some of their songs are good, but i liked them better when i was younger. But i never saw them live, i could have see them about 2 months ago for free but i wasn't here unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
