I have no memory of having seen Blind Guardian less than three years ago. I blame that on my jet lag and their early afternoon slot–not their performance. Also, Alice Cooper played later in the day, and I rode home on a bike in a lightning storm so those factors may have laid waste to most of my memories from earlier in the day.

The good news is that Demons & Wizards, also featuring Hansi Kursch, will be at 2019 Copenhell so I’ll be able to see him again, for the first time.

Berlin Victory Column

Berlin Victory Column

#berlin #germany #tiergarten

Today’s photo, which comes from the location for Barack Obama’s speech in Berlin as a US presidential candidate during his visit to Germany in July 2008, was taken in Berlin’s Tiergarten Park. The original location for this statue is the center of this prior photo. The Victory Column was relocated to its present location in 1939 by the nazis. Had it not been relocated, it would have been destroyed in WWII.
