The set list was cool, some classics and some later stuff, very pleasing. War Pigs too!

The running time was perfect for a reunited SR, not so long as they over stayed their welcome but short enough to have had a fun time to and play some of their best songs.

Missed the support.

The sound was good, better than what I was expecting from the Scala as I had heard it was whack. Way too muddy though, the guitars could have used some mids and the bass fucked up during the second song or something but it didn't ruin the show.

The crowd was exceptional for a band that is kind of average and hasn't been around for like 15 years, it was pretty packed. Raging mosh pit all the way through too.

Good fun!!!

They're one of my favourite bands. I'd love to be able to go to Wacken this year just to see them.

This raged. Having never seen them since discovering them in '89, I was, how you say, jolly chuffed to finally see them. The set-list was slightly too American Way, perhaps, as Ignorance is an insurmountably better album, but we still got, 'Administrative Decisions', 'Violent Solutions', 'Ignorance' and 'Death Squad'. Great turn-out and good mosh, but not a single stage-dive.

In summary - Approved. Welcome back.

I saw Reich at Wacken. I only really know their greatest hits sorta material, but they still kicked my fucking ass. They played for an hour, opened with American Way, covered War Pigs and finished with Surf Nicaragua. Arguably the best part was that the lads blatantly loved being back on stage after so long: the turn-out for Reich was huge, with enthused cheering before, during and long after the set.

Fucking legendary band, I gotta say. :rockdevil:

Yeh awesome performance, they played a perfect setlist, looked like they were having mounds of fun and basically just kicked ass. I got a tour shirt, which is also a big pile of brilliance.

yeah they put on a good show at wacken, the war pigs cover was spot on. They didn't blow me away like the other thrash bands at wacken but was cool to see them live for the first time.

Aye, i have never been that big on them. But seeing them live will defiantly make me listen back through their stuff again.

Two points, they really did seem to enjoy themselves immensely and the rhythm guitarist's (Don't know his name....shame) teeth were thrash as fuck lol.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...
