The Germans of ScorpionsThe headliners of this first sold-out night of Rock in Rio Lisboa 2024, entered the World Stage with the game won in a venue that could no longer fit anyone in, completely packed to see a show of the highest standard.
The band, led by guitarist and founder Rudolf Schenker and charismatic vocalist Klaus Meine, presented a set list full of songs that have spanned the 40-year career of one of rock and hard rock's most legendary bands. One downside of Rock in Rio this year was that most of the audience was concentrated around the World Stage, and it took a lot of gymnastics to be able to see the stage or the big screens from far away, a point that will certainly be improved in the future.
Sobre o Scorpions nada de novo vindo de uma banda consagrada e que desde a entrada do baterista Mikkey Dee (ex Motörhead, ex King Diamond) ganhou um novo fôlego, um exemplo disso é o incrivel solo de bateria de quase 6 minutos, um show a parte. Hits como ?The Zoo?, ? Wind of Change?, ?Blackout?, ?Big City Nights? entre tantos outros tiveram a ajuda do publico que cantou a plenos pulmões para metade de Lisboa ouvir.
Eles terminaram com ?Rock You Like a Hurricane? deixando claro que o primeiro dia do Rock in Rio 2024 The celebration of the event's 20th anniversary in Portugal was like a hurricane, with concerts that touched everyone who set foot in Parque do Tejo and will certainly be remembered for many years to come.
