50 years have gone by since the days the juvenile Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker and Matthias Jabs wandered the streets of Hannover, which was just awakening from post war paralysis, with a barrow carrying their instruments and amplifiers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In these 50 years, they have become Germany\u2019s, or rather Continental Europe\u2019s most successful rock band, the living proof that not only VW, Mercedes or BMW are able to compete internationally, but classic rock music made in Germany as well. Countless bands, including the Smashing Pumpkins as well as Green Day, Korn, System Of A Down or Queensryche have covered songs by the Scorpions throughout the years. \u201cRock You Like A Hurricane\u201d on its own was covered over 150 times by different musicians.<\/p>\n

Expressing a career like the one of the Scorpions in mere numbers is almost impossible. However, one number that should still be mentioned is more than 100 million records sold to date. This makes the Scorpions the most successful rock band of Europe. However, countless silver, gold and platinum awards are only one side of the Scorpions\u2019 history. Another is their unabated desire to travel. No other rock band of their caliber after so many years takes to the stage as often as the Hannover natives. They have played thousands of concerts in all corners of the planet: in Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo, Moscow, Washington, Dubai, Paris or Berlin.<\/p>\n

There were many magic live moments; some of them are captured on live albums, others on film and video recordings. These are the moments, which have cemented the Scorpions\u2019 reputation as one of the rare bands rising far above the crowd. This unique band will stop with their brand new show on 18 November, 2019 in Budapest Arena! Tickets for the Budapest show are now available via www.livenation.hu<\/a>, and www.funcode.hu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
