Back to Germany for another great concert with the much improved shorter version of Paradise. This time most of the responses in the verbal part of On A Hot Summer Night were provided by the audience instead of Meat Loaf.
Kasim was wearing his black, brown, red coloured jumper with his black trousers at this concert. He started with his shorter jacket with the fur collar and pockets but had already taken it off at the beginning of I'd Lie For You.
This time at the beginning of DeadRinger Kasim shouted "Meat Loaf" a couple of times to get him to turn around to look at the girls but Meat Loaf just pushed him and told him to play his guitar so all four of them stood at the front of the stage playing (AKA 1996). When Meat Loaf finally spotted the girls he again had a go at Kasim for not telling him and this time Kasim could clearly be seen saying "I told you that!" Virtually every concert so far, when the guys and the girls meet in the middle of the stage, Kasim seems to have a chat with Pearl – I'd love to know what he says.
During the long musical part of Rock and Roll Dreams Meat Loaf always goes around each member of the band inciting them to play harder and louder but for the last couple of concerts he has taken to grabbing a drumstick off John and bashing the hell out of one of the drums. John's face at this point is a sight to behold as he flinches until Meat Loaf gets into a rhythm! At this concert John exaggeratedly raised himself off his stool each time the drum was hit as if it was being caused by the force of Meat Loaf's blows!
