Rage issues tour recap


Rage RAGE guitarist Victor Smolski has posted a tour recap:

"The very best thing on this tour has been once again our fans, who have supported us with their screaming and shouting song after song and show after show. Thanx! Their energy makes us forget about our tiredness and keeps us kicking asses daily. For me it is sometimes quite funny to see how people are able to sing along note for note, even my guitar solos. On the other hand, it can be very frustrating to see some dudes sleeping on our monitor system completely drunk or, just like it was in Fulda, after the second song hearing somebody shouting at Peavy [Wagner; bass, vocals], 'Take off your panties!!?' As well not very nice it was to hear dumb racist comments about our Austrian guest band during our stay in Bad Salzungen, as well as it turned out to be not funny that our beer has been stolen from our backstage.

"Dear all promoters, I'd like you to understand what musicians and especially the crew are physically going through during a tour, so at least there should be showers in a club! What I've never expected in middle Europe, as for example Germany, that there couldn't be found any hot water in some clubs!? (Hello!? Did the civilisation leave you behind???)"
