Scorpions or the name of the next build?

#1

Post by sunnbobb »

Project Scorpion is rolling around in my head. As always, I like to "tune out" to the theme name for a bike..

For those who like rock, and have never really known much about the Scorpions.. this buds for you. PS, watch it in 720 HD.. And do as Nigel sez, turn the amp up to 11!

Always amazed me that 2 premier rock axe players came out of the same household. Rudolf and Micheal Shenker.
The hard rock world is a better place due to their presence.
"Deadly Sting"....has a nice ring!

Thanks Sunny!

Good Day Gents;
In the after Chtistmas sale blitz I bought a 46" HD TV and connected it to my computer and thanks to this thread I have re-discovered the Scorpions. I have 5 of their CD's and was happy to discover that their full Acoustica concert is available on U-Tube in HD as well as several cuts from the Moments of Glory cd. WOW. You have to see them perform Kansas' Dust in the Wind with Ariana Arcu on the cello. What a georgous young lady. A PHD in music and she is only 27.
I cruised E-Bay and have bought both these CD's, much to my wife's dislike. She is not a rocker, preferring celtic music over my love of Metal.
