Ah, Gunther Diaz - big star up here in Norway (much like David Hasselhoff's
status in Germany) and will be sorely missed. Last time they played here in
Oslo was in march 94, supporting their 5th album, "Ich Liebe Die Fleisch"
for a packed crowd of enthusiastic punters. Their music could be described
as a mix between Guns & Roses, Scorpions and TNT. Gunther, R.I.P., we miss
you already.
