  • A guest 100% for Joe Satriani · Fri, 30 Oct 2015

    Wow,
    I think it was one of the best concerts from Joe Satriani, because he played also many old tracks throughout his complete career. That makes the concert at it´s best.

  • A guest 80% for Sonata Arctica · Fri, 08 May 2015

    I really liked the concert, all of the three Bands just rocked the hell out of this Place ^_^

    But I had some difficulties understanding, what the vocal artists were singing :(
    Unfortunately this place (Matrix in Bochum) was not 100% perfect from the acoustical experience - sometimes the sound was just a mess.

    Furthermore this place was quite cramped - maybe the LJ was not best positioned in the middle of the room ;)

    All in all I think what really matters was: The Bands just rocked like hell and I had really much fun, so here you go: 4/5 * :)

    Twilight Force get better and better everytime I see them, Freedom Call were solid as always, eventhough I think they played a very wrong setlist. Sonata Arctica...well, I like them on CD but I was not able to enjoy them live. The singer was too....well sometimes I thought he had some cocaine in his Coke. Too fast, no time for storytelling. And the crowd was just....too many people. Couldn't raise my arm sometimes without hurting me or the people around me. From 1 to 10 I would say....average. 5/10.

    The scheme above...when I use this, it would be "nothing special".
