Wacken Open Air XXI

Wacken (Germany)

(Panasonic DMC-TZ7)

The first main act of the so called “Night to Remember” entered the stage already at 17:30 in the afternoon. Alice Cooper performed his „Theatre of Death“ show.
For roughly 80 minutes the „old man“ presented great songs like „Schools out for Summer“. A really terrific show with lots of magic tricks on stage fascinated the audience, nevertheless the spark was never really ignited.
The music was good, the show great but simply rattled off. Not even once during the whole performance Alice Cooper spoke one word to the audience, the songs just went over one into the other and so in the end I was quite disappointed. I had expected a little bit more from such a big name.
