Which gigs are YOU going to visit in April/May?

[Sylvia]

I was just wondering where you are going to support MERCENARY on the first European Headliner Tour.

I will, for sure, appear to the gigs in Osnabrück and Hamburg.
I wish all the best to the band for the tour and I'm looking forward to two great gigs. I hope they will be at least as good as in Cologne last November!

What about you?

[EskiDEATH]

I really wanted to go to Berlin, mainly because Desilence is warmup. But it's on a wedensday, which fits very bad in my other plans. :(

[Winterland-Fab]

I will be in the Paris gig (La scène Bastille) in first part of them with my band Winterland !!
What a chance !!!

[zenmetal]

Alas, distance will once again keep me away :(, but I'll be at EVERY show in spirit!!!

Why don't you come to Hamburg. The gig there is on Friday 4th May.
The Ballroom is a cosy club directly in the harbour, and it is not far away from the famous Reeperbahn ;)
It has been my favourite venue when I lived in Hamburg. :)

The support there is a band called "Fire" (haven't heard anything about them yet.)

Edit: Sorry, posted the wrong URL, now it should be right :D

i'm right there with ya, ZenMetal--can't make it out to the shows, but can imagine how f-in metal they will be!!!

[Kralle]

I wasn't home for the show in Aalborg, so im going to ÅRHUS :D

[Odowalt]

1 may @ Biebob Vosselaar BELGIUM (with VIP tickets)
and possibly (hopefully) 3 may @ De Bosuil Weert HOLLAND.

[Flapje]

Hopefully De Bosuil. Will have to see what I can arrange. Please come to De Melkweg or something next time, guys :D

[Narcosynthesis]

I will be at De Bosuil, 3 may..
Too bad there's only one show in the Netherlands:(

[Odowalt]

Come to Belgium!

[EskiDEATH]

Come to Belgium!
Move to Germany!:D :D
It's the european center of metal......

[Sylvia]

Move to Germany!:D :D
It's the european center of metal......

Who said so??? :confused:

[EskiDEATH]

Band-wise, Germany still lacks IMO.
BUT: There are more than 80.000.000 germans, which creates a market for metal that cannot be denied/ignored.

[Sylvia]

Band-wise I totally agree - There are too little metal-bands here

regarding the population I have to say, that most of those 80.000.000 people DON'T listen to Metal and even regard Metal as the music of the poor, of the rockers and that metalheads are criminals - some people even think metal is kind of satanic.
:rolleyes:
Yesterday - one of my neighbours kept her child away from me because I wore a TIAMAT-Longsleeve.... Don't know what to say about that, but over the years I learned to cope with that or to ignore some guys opinion about metal....

In Germany people either love or hate metal - there's nothing in between....IMHO :o

[EskiDEATH]

"Kind of Satanic...."
They're totally ignorant about the different genres in metal then. :)

[Flapje]

Well, you Germans do have Wacken. ;)

[Sylvia]

Well, you Germans do have Wacken. ;)

YEAH, the Metal-Mekka - as a girl from Australia told me in 2001 :D

And many more :D

Anyone of you coming to Bang Your Head?
a lot more cosy than Wacken, great people and wheater, ONE Stage!

[Serendipity]

Hey there,

I'm going to be in Essen on april 30th - well, we could show the Mercenaries how the Germans celebrate may 1st. :)

But I was wondering whether one of you guys could actually post the Mercenary setlist here, as far as it is known...

Cheers and bottoms up!!

Yup! I'll be flying in for it from Finland, gonna be my first German metal festival - naturally really looking forward to it since I really like the lineup and have only heard positive feedback about the festival.

Let me know if you want to meet up, I don't yet know too many people going there and it's always fun to meet new cool people.

Good boss you have! :) I have pretty much everything arranged for Bang Your Head too, spending a couple of extra days in Germany so that should be fun also. Right after I've recovered from Bang Your Head it's already time to see Mercenary again at the Tuska festival in Helsinki the weekend after BYH :D

[Sylvia]

My tix arrived *gg*

[Sebastian]

Gonna be in Saarbrücken on Tuesday evening.

Someone else from here there?

I will probably wear my blue hardrock-cafe shirt and hang around with an old man :p (who is my father and actually loves mercenary as much as i do)

[Denisse]

Ladies and gentlemen, we will meet in the concert of Paris.
I could obtain a Vip Badges!!
You will recognize me for knowing all the songs and the madman does for the room.

[Ateacina]

I´ll be in Saarbrücken tomorrow! :)

I´m soo looking forward to that concert since it´s been quite a while when I Mercenary live...

[Sebastian]

like announced before i took the 150km trip south to saarbrücken to see you once again (4. time in the 2 years i listen to mercenary).

i have to say it was really cool, the playlist was almost perfect, i would have liked to hear into the sea of dark desires and world hate center as opening and redestructdead somewhere in the middle (i missed that one!).

What also was very great is that - although there were just about 50 persons in the crowd - everyone was partying with the others..

Someone else was there?

[Sylvia]

Only 50 people? :eek:

I hope there will be some more people attending on Friday - The guys deserve that.
But I think Hamburg is going to be a REALLY big party :D

[Ateacina]

I´ve been in Saarbrücken as well!
Damn great gig, hehe! I was totally exhausted after the gig, cause it was so warm, but it was so much fun! :)

I took quite a lot of pics, although the light was damn crappy. But here are some of the pics I uploaded so far.

If I have time enough and everything goes well, I´ll go to the concert in Vosselaar as well and maybe take some more pics. :)

[Sylvia]

Yesterday, Osnabrück was f***ing great!
I smashed my neck - I lost my voice

Thumbs Up, Guys :)

[Narcosynthesis]

I really hope I can still go to the gig in Weert..
I was going to stay over at a friends house.. But that's not going to work..
Maybe my sister wants to go with me, but she'll have to drive 2,5 hours..
:mad: I want to go!!!

[Serendipity]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH

The Gig in Essen was a fuckin' Killer, so damn shitfucking great...I will never forget what I saw and heard because it was so amazing - and thats just wonderful.

MERCENARY for freaking PRESIDENT !!

[Sylvia]

Yes - it was really great :D (except for the alcohol-free beer).....

Although my cam ran out of battery in the middle of the gig I took 122 photos from the plague :eek:

Again - Thumbs up !!!

[Adam]

The gig in Hamburg yesterday was sooooooo damn awesome...
I stood direct in front of the stage....you guys got such a great power..... amazing, can`t explain it in words.... it was sooo great.
Thanks for such a great event.....

Adam

[DragonLady]

so the tour is over now, its great to read the reviews of all the shows here :) I was at 2 gigs (Würzburg and Wörgl) and it was simply amazing! have some pics of that online at www.photopit.com :)

[EskiDEATH]

Cool pics Carolina.
It may be my computer that screws up (again!), but I can only see the pics on the first page. If I switch to the following pages, I get only white squares with red crosses in. :mad:
