Concert Report by Steve F. Michael Schenker Group at Red Mouse, Middleton, WI, U.S.A. October 29, 2012 Added on 10/30/2012
Ritchie,
Saw last night's show at the Red Mouse, Cross Plains, WI...
Located just outside of Madison, the Red Mouse was not very well attended.
Seems the promoter didn't do an excellent job of, well, Promoting. The fans
that were there were treated to a blazing show in an almost 'intimate'
environment.
The setlist was the same as other nights, and the band really seemed to
have a lot of fun rocking, joking and general tomfoolery during the show.
Shows how well these guys like each other, and the fans are the winner of
all this chemistry! Michael was in very good spirits, interacting with the
crowd, smiling, slapping hands and aiming his various Dean guitars at the
fans throughout the show. His playing was flawless, precise and
clean...Michael makes it look so effortless. A true Guitar God!
Unlike last night at Shank Hall, the UFO songs didn't seem as rushed, and
Rock Bottom was SO PERFECT we all were just left standing there, amazed!
I'm really warming up to 'Before the Devil Knows You're Dead', and David
Van Landing's vocals on it are so great, he takes 'Doogie's song' and
really makes it his own! And how he keeps his voice so strong after seven
nights in a row is amazing.
Well, off to the House Of Blues, Chicago for another night of truly
memorable rock.
