Special guests and NSFW antics are par for the course at any Steel Panther show, and when the band took the stage recently at the House of Blues in Hollywood, both were in plentiful supply.
Often when a band breaks up, they take a handful of years off, then get back together for a tour. If that works well, then they get back into the studio for a new album. The Scorpions have subverted that formula, first by deciding not to break up, but also by announcing that they are working on a new album.
Just because the Scorpions are in the midst of a farewell tour doesn't mean that the end of the road is near as far as band projects are concerned.
Singer Klaus Meine says a 3-D concert DVD is in the works, and it should be on the market in the next few months.
But that's not all. Meine adds that a new Scorpions album and a career-spanning documentary are also on the horizon.
