You just know these two men are just genuine musicians and just talented too the Max! Love The Scorps not the same without them, but that's life. Fabulous interview by the way.
I haven't seen a drummer in the Scorpions yet that has fit any better than Herman Rarebell. I saw Herman with the Scorpions at Monsters of Rock in 1988 in Detroit and ill tell you what...i was a guitarist and he made me a drummer...I was blown away by his impeccable timing and solid drum sound...I was converted and have played drums since 88. Thank you Herman for your inspiration!!!...im still trying to get your snare sound live...lol.
I didn't think there was anyway he could get any uglier!!!! My god!!!! Blotzer the blunder boy is actually doing something amazing for once in his life.. getting even uglier than before jesus shit!!!!!!
They haven't played a festival in 20 years ...were they even born 20 years ago ? That was an odd questions considering Andrew is not there . I was waiting for Chris to pop off with well at 11 years old I was tied up with my Euro tour and had to find the time. I LOVE these 2. Hahahahah
I think they mean that the band overall hasn’t played a festival in 20 years, not them. Andrew was born in 1959, whilst Ben was born in 1980 (the year sisters of Mercy formed) and Chris was born sometime after that. So yes, Ben was around at the time that Sisters of Mercy last played a festival, but he was just 10/11 years old at the time that they last played a festival, so they were likely too young.
Herman left because Klaus wouldnt left him write anymore lyrics and get royalties for it. Herman wrote some of the Scorpions best lyrics. Klaus was greedy
