Like Slash, Michael Schenker has played with several bands and also chooses to play a range of material, including songs from The Scorpions (Rock you like a hurricane & Another piece of meat) and UFO (Rock Bottom & Doctor Doctor).<\/p>\n
For his set at High Voltage Michael Schenker has brought a few guests with him. His brother Rudolph Schenker takes a day off from the Scorpions to come and play on ”Rock you like a hurricane”, ”Hanging on” and ”Doctor Doctor”, UFO legend is wheeled out for ”Rock Bottom” and ”Doctor Doctor”, and Jeff Scott Soto comes on stage for Doctor Doctor. Pete Way seems like a shadow of his former self which is a shame.<\/p>\n
Michael Schenker often hides at the back of the stage and plays while barely acknowledging the crowd, but today thankfully he’s obviously in a good mood and remains at the front of the stage to share the limelight.<\/p>\n
Today’s set includes two songs from Michael Schenker’s forthcoming album, Temple of rock (Before the devil knows you’re dead & Hanging on), both of which sounds great.<\/p>\n
The only problems were sound related – once again poor sound reared its head at High Voltage. Early on Michael Schenker’s guitar was far too low in the mix and the vocals were barely audible at times – very disappointing.<\/p>\n
Today was an excellent performance from the legendary guitarist and sets a high standard for Joe Bonamassa to try and beat later with Black Country Communion.
\nHighlights of the set have to be the three classics – ”Rock you like a hurricane”, ”Rock bottom” and ”Doctor Doctor”.<\/p>\n
