Renowned rock band SCORPIONS is all set to warm up Shillong Wednesday when it begins the India leg of the Humanity World Tour with "love and not war" as the underlying theme. The German heavy metal group, which gave all-time hits like 'Still Loving You', 'Winds Of Change', 'Always Somewhere', and the likes of 'Send Me An Angel', is on a world tour to drum up support for the just released album - Humanity Hour 1.
Guitarist and founder member of Scorpions Rudolf Schenker and Klaus Meine, Matthias Jabs, James Kottak and Pawel Maciwoda will be performing.
"The mood is ecstatic with music lovers simply getting restless to watch the concert," said Ming Larsing, managing director of the Centre Point Entertainment Network, the main organiser for the event which is dubbed as the biggest musical fest ever in northeast India.
Members of the band are equally excited to begin their India tour in Shillong, known as the rock capital of the east.
"India is the land of charming music and we are excited to perform. Believe in love and not war, be happy and make others happy," the band members said in a statement ahead of the big concert.
