Comment:

The very first show in the 2009 tour. After the big success of the last Strasbourg concert in 2008 the Scorpions played in that area with Uli again. The setlist had been changed and what can I say. AMAZING! Because they played MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE SCORPIONS SONG "Life's Like A River" what they dropped about the setlist after the 1979 tournament. I had have some new live version of that but only from Uli's own concerts. Now is the first time when I can see this masterpiece in live personally. I still can't belive that! Well the Uli part had been changed since the Strasbourg show. There are some old classices what they dropped like "Fly To The Rainbow", "He's A Woman - She's A Man" or "Dark Lady". But they added other great 70's tracks like "Backstage Queen", "Robot Man" or "Polar Nights". Besides they refreshed the other part of the showw too. With "Rhythm Of Love" and "Hit Between The Eyes". I have just a little lack that they played only one song from the Scorpions' two last albums. They are great materials and they should have to play more track from them. I think this "321" is not enough!

Quality:

The quality is good enough. Sometimes there are too noisy and the bass is resonated. The sound had been ripped from the video camera. Here I want to thanks to Francois for the recording. He made great job. I know that sometimes we have to put down the camera if we want to save it! :)
