Scorpions To Record 60th Anniversary Hometown Show For New Live Album

Scorpions have revealed that they are planning to record their July 5 show at Heinz von Heiden-Arena in Hanover, Germany. The 60th anniversary concert will be released as a new live album, titled “Coming Home Live,” on November 14.

Members of the band commented:

Rudolf Schenker:

“Back then, we just wanted to be part of the global rock family — that was our dream. Since then, we’ve shared the stage with Aerosmith and KISS, with Metallica, AC/DC, and I don’t even remember who else we’re fascinated by — to the Berlin Philharmonic.”

Klaus Meine:

“It’s the most important element. And the strongest: The Scorpions are a band that, from the very beginning, has seen its place on stage and on some of the biggest stages in the world, in the biggest stadiums and arenas. It was always a challenge to win over fans and play a great show live.”

Matthias Jabs:

“I don’t like to think about the past. I prefer to think about what we’re doing now or will do. And that’s why, for me, the stadium concert in Hanover is the most important thing right now.”
