Scorpions, the 60 -year concert becomes a live album

After playing in the stadiums around the world, the Scorpions will celebrate their 60th anniversary on 5 July, performing for the first time in the stadium of their hometown, Hanover, where it all began. The show at the Hanover Stadium Arena/Heinz von Heiden Arena, for which a press note informs that 45,000 tickets were sold in a few seconds by registering all over, will be testified by a live album. “Coming Home” will be the motto of the concert and “Coming Home Live” will be the title of the live disc that will accompany him. The publication will be available from Prosism November 14 for Universal Music.

“At the time, we just wanted to be part of the world rock family: it was our dream,” said Rudolf Schenker in a press release, the man who founded the band sixty years ago: “Since then, we have shared the stage with the aerosmiths and Kiss, with the Metallica, the AC/DC, even with the Berlin Philharmonic”.

“The concert is our most important element,” said singer Klaus Meine: “And the strongest: the Scorpions are a band that, since the beginning, has established itself on stage and on some of the largest stages in the world, in the stadiums and in the arenas. It has always been a challenge to conquer the public and play a great live show”. For his part, the solo guitarist Matthias Jabs added: “I don’t like to think about the past. I prefer to think about what we are doing now or what we will do. And that’s why, for me, the concert in the Hanover stadium is the most important thing right now”.
