Udo! At Wacken!

June 17th, 2008 by goatlady

I’m pretty happy about this. Udo Dirkschnei­der, the crazy lit­tle man out the front of Ger­man power-metallers Accept and now U.D.O. is going to be doing a guest spot with Lordi at Wacken.

Just one song, mind you, but still… Udo is a bit of a leg­end as far as I’m con­cerned. Balls to the Wall rates as one of my all time favourite songs from my child­hood (I tried to slip it into the playlist at Gossy’s wed­ding, but the only 80’s power metal that made it past the DJ was Judas Priest’s Turbo Lover).

We’re a man down – Al will no longer be join­ing our epic jour­ney of epic­ness – but we’ll raise the horns for our fallen com­rades and bat­tle on, only 6 weeks til Wacken itself and a shade less than 4 weeks until we leave Aus­tralia. Wootage!
