Scorpions under cover in Hamburg

It was a top secret.... Scorpions played beside other great German musicians yesterday on a charity show of Jean-Jacques Kravetz in Hamburg.
On the official website of Scorpions you couldn´t found any info about it. I opened a topic to ask if the band will play there two weeks before. But the webmaster just laughed about it and the management ignored it. Scorpions are sad that German fans are not so enthused and the shows are not sold out...and they are right. The band is so successful all around the world, but not in their home country. In the last interview I´ve translated, Klaus said that it´s on the German promoters to make Scorpions more popular again in Germany. It can´t be the promoters fault when I see all the rumors where Scorpions should play in Germany from the last years. The promoters want Scorpions, maybe it´s somebody else who block this. The management didn´t shared the info about the show in Hamburg with the fans, so fans could go there. WHY????????????????
The management don´t want it? They don´t want Scorpions to be successful in Germany? We never get any stuff like shirts, stickers, mugs or whatever about our favorite band here in Germany. The shop is under construction since more than a year. It´s really hard to be a Scorpions fan in Germany when the fans never get any info on the official site of the band

Scorpions played Rock You Like A Hurricane and Klaus sang together with Jean Jacques Wind Of Change... I bet it was awesome

Hi Claudi.
I don't blame you for being angry or upset because you can't get any information that Scorpions are playing in your country. I know you are a very big fan of Scorpions and it makes you feel bad and useless when you can't even find out anything on the Scorpions website. It is sad

that this was not posted so you could have gone and seen Scorpions. I can't buy Scorpions stuff in Australia and I know what that is like because you have to hunt it down to find it. I wonder why they did not reopen the Scorpions shop because it has been a long time. Rolling Eyes

Just hang in there my friend and hopefully you will get to see them play again. It would be great to see them at the charity show.
