Interesting thing to think about we could say that Mermaids are indeed , fishes. and are indeed humans. but lemme put a lil acronumous here to see if you "fish" can recognize it:
ΙΧΘΥΣ . its "your" symbol
But I mean, sum "fishes" are really cool. I really like when "fishes" do this:
To debate with someone requires both parties have at least a tentative grasp of logic. Therefore, there seems to be no point in me attempting any further debates since that qualification is not met in this case.
Scorpions have an excellent legacy, so if they want to stay together and keep performing I say let em. If any good new tracks happen to come out of it, it's a bonus.

I also like prostitutes.
i thought Sting in the Tail was very entertaining. I really enjoyed and am glad they will be doing more.
Last I heard him, Klaus Meine's voice was still golden and he's what, 64 years old? More power to him. If he wants to keep the Scorpions going till he drops dead onstage, I say let him.
On a somewhat related note, anybody know if James Kottak (who did some jail time in Dubai after being a drunken dick on an airplane) is still their drummer or did they replace him and move on with someone else?
He's still listed as a band member on their website. I couldn't find any news about him since he got released from jail in Dubai.

If you knew the history of the symbol, you'd easily understand that it's not my symbol. I wasn't living 2000 years ago and being persecuted for having meetings that the local authority deemed unlawful. Punishable by death by the way. Since I can fellowship where I want and when I want, I have no need to scribble anything in the sand or dirt.
It seems you are trying to get banned from here to prove a point to someone, someplace and earn some proverbial brownie points with that fish hating crowd of folks you're trying to impress. It's cool you have your own beliefs and I respect that, but making blanket statements, being condescending, and judging due to lack of understanding, compassion, or your need to forgive others isn't cool.
Your input is welcome and has often been insightful. It's the purposeful looking for argument that is lame. If you go to the pet store, you can find troll pellets right beside the fish food. Mellow out
Going in and out of retirement is annoying, but I'd jump at the chance to see the Scorps again. The last time I saw them was in 2009 with Ratt opening. I'd also like to hear some new original material from them: Comeblack would have been a terrible way to go out.

Yeah James is still with the band.

The Scorps have a temp drummer sitting in while Kottak dries out...
Quote :
Sitting behind the kit for the SCORPIONS on the current run of shows is Swedish drummer Johan Franzon.
Franzon is filling in for James Kottak, the SCORPIONS' American drummer who spent a month in a Dubai, United Arab Emirates jail in April for insulting Islam and has since begun receiving treatment for alcohol abuse. Kottak said in a statement: "I am determined to come to grips with my alcoholism and am doing everything on a daily basis to beat this relentless disease." He added: "This entire incident caused me to realize that it is time to stop drinking once and for all so that I can become the father, musician, and friend that I know I can be."
SCORPIONS recently released a statement in which they said about Kottak: "[James] will have to find the time to sort out his problems."
Because of his arrest, Kottak did not perform with his bandmates at the April 5 show at the 2014 Formula One Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix and was replaced at the gig by Mark Cross (TAINTED NATION, FIREWIND, OUTLOUD, HELLOWEEN, METALLIUM).

Two or three years ago Rudolf mentioned he might do a Project with his brother. Would be cool if that will happen.

Scorps need to do another album like Unbreakable if they're not going to call it a day... Best album since Blackout imo....

I think Sting in the Tail was very good (albeit a little too long) and I would be thrilled to have another similar album.
