SCORPIONS Consider Reuniting With Former Members
April 20, 2010, 14 years ago
According to Amy Sciarretto from Artist Direct, SCORPIONS singer Klaus Meine said that the band may also have former members Uli Jon Roth, Michael Schenker and Herman Rarebell join the current lineup for a few shows. Meine was quoted as saying, "Nothing's planned yet, it depends on their schedule as well, but they're more than welcome to do something like A Night to Remember and play songs that are connected with this moment in time when they were with the band."
