as you've read here maybe before, I usually tend to come late pretty often, and miss supportbands as a result. But this time I have to confess that I missed the two supportacts on purpose. To get it right, I was there by time, but after aprox. 5 minutes I fled out again and went for a glas of wine or two with some friends, 'till the headliner will be on. I'm not mentioning any names now to be not that brutal, and start this review by about 10 p.m. when the show of Paul Di'Anno also named the Beast is started with some jinglebells. Yeah well, from the visual aspect, for me, he rather seems like uncle Ernie from next door to me. Not even all those frightning tattoos and piercings can change that impression and make him look more dangerous. But that's what we call imagecare for doing old fashion Heavy Metal. But as he says so: "I hate to play all that old stuff the original way. Either I give it a modern update or I leave it and make something completely new."
That's why we get here
mostly music from Paul's solocarriere and his band inbetweenies. Paul
Andrews a.k.a. Paul Di'Anno is 50 years old now. And this man has gonne
through quite a few depths in his life. After his time in Iron Maiden
from 1977 - 1981, where he was fired because of drug abuse, he
celebrated some success with his band Battlezone and 2 albums. Most of
all it was the second longplayer 'Children Of Madness' which went quite
well down at the fans. His next project 'Killers' had their name from
the same titled Maiden album. At some point Paul wrote his autobiography.
Yeah well, -almost. Uncle
Ernie.... no sorry Mr. Di'Anno of course keeps the few fans here moving
in a quick step rhythm with his impressing voice. The only thing I
personally don't like (once again) is this talking politics on stage.
Please - do leave politics in politic, and leave purely the music on
stage. Last but not least we get
a bit of a different version of Iron Maiden's 'Sanctuary'. |
