Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Klaus really has the Captain Caveman thing going. I Think his accent improved in later years.

While I'm all for early, vintage Scorpions fans enjoying their early stuffc, I'm a post-Lovedrive Scorp fan myself. I missed them by 2 days in San Diego when they recorded World Wide Live; still bums me out to this day.

With all that said, I can also say that I don't know that I'd ever go see them live again. I've seen them twice and they are, without a shred of doubt, the two loudest concerts I've ever been to. (One indoor stadium, one open-air) I KNOW I got some serious hearing damage from those two shows alone.

Dag and I saw them live twice, in 1984 and 1985 for Love at First Sting and then World Wide Live. In 1984 for Love At First Sting, the scorps were at their peak insanity I bet, it was incredible.
