UDO DIRKSCHNEIDER To Release Live DVD Of ACCEPT Classics In October; New Audio Interview Streaming

Udo Dirkschneider (U.D.O., ex-Accept) filmed the April 2nd Dirkschneider concert at Kaminwerk in Memmingen, Germany - where he performed Accept songs for the final time - for an upcoming DVD  release. Speaking with Planetmosh, Udo spoke about the upcoming release.

“The DVD will be out maybe already in the middle of October. I don't know yet. The record company is talking about this. But I think it will be October. It's also good promotion for the next part of the tour.”

Listen to the interview below:

Shortly before playing at the sold out Halle 02 in Heidelberg/Germany, rock legend Udo Dirkschneider was presented a Sold Out-Award by his manager/booker Frank Süpfle of ITM Agency for the extremely successful Dirkschneider tour, where 31 out of 48 Europe shows were sold out.

“It’s unbelievable, I never expected this tour to be so overly successful,” Udo comments. “It’s beautiful to see how many people walk with me on my personal way of saying goodbye to the Accept chapter.”

The singer with the charismatic voice had his musical breakthrough with Accept in the early ‘80s.

“It’s still so much fun to sing these songs live, they are a part of my biography, but nevertheless it’s about time to turn that page. There was so much talking and speculations about me and Accept, so this is kind of a musical statement from my end - which seems to be very interesting for the fans who came to these shows“.

Due to extremely high demand from fans and promoters, Dirkschneider will continue touring until the end of 2016. After the triumph all over Europe in spring 2016, Dirkschneider will tour in Israel and Japan, doing a lot of summer festivals and then touring US, Russia and Europe in fall and winter 2016.
