The Scorpions 18th October Hammersmith












If you want a definition of how to look like a rock star look no further than Rudolf Schenker. At 59 he looks fantastic and displayed the energy of a teenager bounding across the stage. The Scorpions are a proper rock band and being german, they play a fluid and methodical style that delivers empathically. They did not do Wind Of Change, their biggest hit over here, but pleased the crowd with other anthems such as Big City Nights and Rock You Like A Hurricane. Michael Schenker (Rudi’s brother) joined in on four or five songs mid set looking much more withit than last time, when frankly he was off his head! The only down side was a pointless drum solo, though this tends to be a staple of any classic rock act and this was about as classic as rock could get.
