After a day’s rest, the wheels were back in motion as the band arrived in Stuttgart, Germany for show number five of eight gigs on this tour. Im Wizemann was tonight’s venue, which in English translates to ‘In the Wizard’!

There was certainly going to be lots of magic happening tonight!

With an explosion of lights like a Magician’s fantastic spell coming to life and setting the room on fire, the band suddenly appeared on the stage blasting out ‘Long Way To Go’!

Doug Aldrich, David Lowy and Michael Devin spent the evening covering most of the stage, swinging their guitars and bass around like a powerful wand granting the wishes of the packed audience with music that they didn’t want to stop listening to!

Like the head sorcerer of a witches coven, John Corabi ruled the stage all night with his own special powers of keeping a room full of German rock fans possessed with The Dead Daisies music for two hours!

With numbers like ‘Bustle and Flow’ and ‘I’m Gonna Ride’ captivating the fans, the band disappeared into the night, leaving behind an audience that didn’t want the magic to end!
