Today would have been Scott’s birthday. He was one of a kind. Always a smile on his face and an animal on the drums. He had the heart and the soul of a lion. Hail, Scott. Always remembered!
Russian fans contributed to making The Final Battle Tour 2019 one of the greatest experiences of our career!
Playing in new cities from Krasnodar across the whole country to Vladivostok, almost 10,000 km east, and many places in between was a dream come true!
We commemorate this special moment in #MANOWAR #history with this video, “House Of Death – Live In Russia 2019”. The sound was recorded live in Vladivostok on March 3, 2019 and the video features Manowarriors from Vladivostok and other cities.
Now the whole world can hear and see the power of Russia’s Manowarriors, while we prepare our return to Russia in 2021!
With more shows, more cities, and our full production!
Благодаря российским фанатам, тур The Final Battle 2019 стал одним из лучших в нашей карьере!
Это была наша мечта – дать концерты в Краснодаре и проехать по всей стране до Владивостока, почти 10000 км на восток, посетив по пути много замечательных мест!
Мы вспоминаем этот особый момент в нашей истории в новом видео – “House Of Death – Live In Russia 2019”. Звук для клипа был записан во Владивостоке 3 марта 2019 года и было использовано концертное видео из Владивостока и других городов.
Теперь Мир услышит и увидит мощь российских фанатов! Мы готовимся к возвращению в Россию в 2021-м году!
Больше концертов, больше городов, с большим масштабом!
Our #warchest #memory this week commemorates an unforgettable show in Zlin, Czech Republic 15 years ago and our fallen brother, Scott Columbus. A giant of a man! Gone, but not forgotten.
Here is a story from a true Manowarrior and Ultimate Fan, Daniela R. (Germany)
Daniela, we’re happy that you decided to share your story; it is inspirational and one that many of us can relate to.
Of course, I know the contest – but never would have thought of me to be interesting enough to participate.
There are so many really great and crazy people, like Sam and Linda or Katja who deserve their stories to be told much more. But, I feel very humbled and honored, that you asked.
Of course, I have a lot of great memories over the years, but I am not too much socializing or photo taking girl, because I am too shy.
So, except UFE, photos are very rare till now.
A story to tell, maybe the project I have since the Spoken Word Tour:
I am taking the time from the Spoken Word Tour to the Anniversary Tour to lose some weight.
Of course, I already knew that I will have to do that to stay healthy and strong, but Joey got me the last kick in the ass to do it seriously.
It is something I am not happy about for a long time now and as he said “if you are not waking up with a smile on your face, something is wrong in your life and you are the only one who can change that.”
These simple sounding words and personal contact had a big impact on me.
Most of my life, I let myself being pressed and held down by others and compensated it through eating.
The music of Manowar always helped me to bear that and gave me the power to go on since the age of 12.
Without them, I would have given up a lot of times instead of fighting and I am very thankful for that.
To meet them face-to-face at the first UFE is still like a dream to me and I have to pinch myself to believe it happened.
Since these two events, I realize more and more, that I start to overcome my problems, when I think of Joey’s words or listen to Manowar songs.
That kind of calibrates me and reminds me of my goal and to leave all the people behind that try to hold me down.
It is 10 kg down so far, but still a long way to go. I was planning to come back on UFE on the anniversary tour, if possible, so I will have a start (from the first UFE) and ending picture, then.
But I don’t know, if that is any kind of interesting for the contest or just crazy.
Daniela, thank you for sharing your story. Don’t let ANYONE hold you down, EVER! Those who try are losers and not worthy to be around you. You are brave and strong! MANOWAR and your MANOWAR family will always be there for you!
