“Temple of Rock” is ready to conquer the UK with a brand new kick-ass, all-star line-up.
Boasting Ex-Scorpions stars
Herman Rarebell and
Francis Buchholz on drums and bass respectively, MSG stalwart
Wayne Findlay on keyboards and the magnificent
Doogie White (ex Rainbow / Yngwie Malmsteen) on vocals, these
“Temple Of Rock” concerts will include a plethora of hits spanning
Michael Schenker’s colourful career.
Songs to be performed by the
“Temple of Rock” include
UFO’s
“Rock Bottom" and
"Doctor Doctor",
MSG’s
"Armed and Ready" and
"Into The Arena", and the
Scorpions classics
"Another Piece of Meat" and
"Rock You like a Hurricane". In addition, Schenker will perform brand new songs from the recently released
"Temple of Rock" album alongside other solo favourites such as
"Before the Devil Knows You´re Dead",
"Miss Claustrophobia" and
"Hangin On".
