Due to the critical acclaim Michael Schenker received on his 2012 UK tour, the legendary guitarist will return with his classic rock band Temple Of Rock on a twelve-date UK tour.
Following his acclaimed 2009/10 world tour performing the MSG 30th Anniversary Show, Michael was joined by (original MSG vocalist) Gary Barden, with a host of other classic rock legends including Carmine Appice, Simon Phillips, Chris Slade and Chris Glen. Schenker’s Temple of Rock is ready to conquer the UK with a celebrated kick-ass, all-star line-up.
Boasting Ex-Scorpions stars Herman Rarebell (drums) and Francis Buchholz (bass), MSG stalwart Wayne Findlay (keyboards) and Scottish vocalist Doogie White (ex Rainbow, Yngwie Malmsteen), the Temple Of Rock concerts will feature plenty of hits spanning Michael Schenker’s career with The Scorpions, UFO and MSG.
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 including the Planet Rock radio favourite ‘Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead’.
