Nothing at all? That is strange, maybe someone somewhere in Germany has advertised, otherwise he will be playing to hardly anyone.

Hope you both have a great time! Take lots of Chuck photo's for me! ;)
I believe the set list is the same as the rest of the tour. I have also seen some interviews from German TV but being all in German I have no idea what was said..

From what I've heard, the tour's going pretty well here in Germany, Hamburg wasn't sold out, don't know about Hannover yesterday. There's been quite a bit of news covverage so far in newspapers and on the telly, and all have been really positive. According to a posting on palerider.de, setlist is pretty much the same as in the states, even though "Wicked Young Man" seems to be back. Don't know what was dropped for that, though. Vengeance and Feminin Side were both played.
And various sources report that David Coverdale was lip-syncin (spelling???) the whole show in Hamburg.

Ok, it seems that someone mixed it up...no wicked young man in the setlist.....in hamburg, whitesnake played first, from 8:10 till 9:35, then alice from 10:20 to 11.50. So Alice is headlining, but both acts play for about 90 minutes. Plus a local(?) support act ("Five and the Red One" in Hannover)

Word is that Coverdale lip-synced in Hannover, too.

Setlist was (in no particular order)

It‘ s hot tonight
School‘ s Out
Billion Dollar Baby
I love the dead
Poison
Eighteen
Steven
Welcome to my Nightmare
Your Feminine Side
Vengeance is Mine
No more Nr. Nice Guy
Cold Ethyl
Feed my Frankenstein
Under my Wheels
Only Women Bleed
Woman of Mass Distraction
Halo of Flies
Dirty Diamonds.

I was in Essen and it was great as always. Whitesnake went on first and everything seems like Alice was definitely the official headliner. On big electronic signs around the venue you could only read his name. It was the same Psycho Drama Show we all have seen so there were no real surprises in the setlist. Alice was in a fantastic shape, Calico and Sheryl apeared in the Show and the live versions of 'vengeance' and 'feminine side' rocked! It was not completely sold out but it's a 10.000-people venue and it was pretty well packed as far as I could see.

After the show I had the chance to meet Alice and finally got signed my DaDa Vinyl ;-) I talked a little bit about the new upcoming 'Spider'-Shows (he's coming back to germany for some festivals at least next year), the remasters (there's nothing new - it depends on the record company) and did the usual small talk. It was a great experience.

Ok, I'm not really sure about the Whitesnake playback thing because there were lots of echo effects during the songs and he was holding his mic VEEERY low from time to time... that could be the reason why everybody thought it was not live. So again, I'm not really sure. But I enjoyed it anyway and it was great to see Reb Beach on guitar again (he's now playing with Whitesnake).
