Well, there are concerts where you are sure what to expect from, and some you just have an idea of how it would be like. My expectations regarding a Damien Rice concert were totally wrong. And I'm so glad about it ( Read more... )

Letzten Mittwoch hatte ich also endlich die Gelegenheit, John Legend, den schimmernden Star am Himmel der ansprchsvollen, zeitgenössischen Soulmusik mal live zu erleben. Das Ganze geschah im Rahmen der BW Jazz Bank Open in Stuttgart, und eigentlich hätte den ersten Teil des Abends Amy Winehouse bestreiten sollen, womit ich sozusagen zwei ( Read more... )

Freitag war es also soweit. Der Tag an dem Melli und ich ein Lächeln auf dem Gesicht haben sollten, nicht nur wegen den Chilis sondern weil dieser Tag bedeuten sollte, dass wir unsere Zulassungsarbeiten fertig haben würden. Und ja, das Lächeln war da ;). Aber dies nur nebenbei ( Read more... )

I'm totally stunned and completely in awe of this Tori Amos live! It's really nothing compared to her last tour when she was doing it solo. It was all really slowed down and mellow, but her characters and the band being with her really bring in a very special athmosphere; just in a very different kind compared to the previous tour. I really didn't ( Read more... )

What would come out as one of the most (inner) emotional concerts had a pretty scary prehistory ;). Carlo and Ale were supposed to collect me and Bettina at 6pm from the Metro station in order to go to the concert venue (he had the tickets). But they didn't show up at 6:01, 6:03, 6:10 and 6:18. And when I tried to call him: no answer. I was ( Read more... )

A concert which felt better than I would have imagined it hence expectations already set my mood a bit down subconsciously (to be honest) - and you know why ? Because of Melli and Jessi who accompanied me *g*. Normally they are rockers (Incubus, RHCP, Johnossi, Nickelback, Sportfreunde Stiller, Mando Diao...) and have never been to a concert where ( Read more... )

So last week I witnessed the great Me'shell NdeGeocello (!?)live in concert. I wouldn't really say it was awesome (like I usually do) but still it was a very good and...interesting (!) evening. The reason why it wasn't awesome is quite simple (sorry, this is a bit egoistic ;) ): first, she didn't perform one single song from my beloved Bitter-album ( Read more... )

After 15 years George Michael is touring Germany again! His first concert took place in Stuttgart yesterday and of course this couldn't be missed by me (and Heiko, Simone and Ariane)! The name of the tour is 25Live which means 25 years in show business = 25 years of hits (when he got to release an album ;) ). Now this concert should include songs ( Read more... )

I'm ashamed and sorry coz this won't be a rather detailed report as usual

This weekend was so awesome Robbie-wise ;). I won't tell anything except that we had a tremendous view on Sunday....

.... More next Sunday as I'm about to leave for Hamburg in a couple of mins.
Here's just a random pic I found in the German forum fans-supreme.de. It shows the crowd at the Hockenheim Ring (90,000).

We were there - somewhere!.
