U.D.O. are so great. such brillant music. no rip off no selling. But you never read much about the band. I started reading Rock Hard mag (German one) in 1989. And u.d.o. never had the glory to be on the title.... Sad but true Poser bands like manowar or hammerfall are there often..... d-a-m-n u.d.o. kicks ass. I love Udo´s voice to death :-)

Yeah, that is true with most magazines...
But U.D.O. is not so good on advertising itself via commercial, perhaps that is why other band is more written about in magazines...

I love the fact U.D.O. never got as big as Manowar. Only the fact alone that we get to see them in klubs instead of arenas is great, and the price is very affordable too! Remember what Manowar sings "Wimps and Posers leave the hall..."

maybe the P.R. guys for u.d.o. are like the rest of the band stuff that happens. it's all secretive. so the P.R. for u.d.o. would go like this!
on a day this year, u.d.o. will be playing. guess where?! or u.d.o. is a band made up of great metal musicians like guess who?! or who would like to announce.............shhhhhh.........shhhhhh..... (whispering)don't tell anybody

I don't know how it is elsewhere, but in Finland the UDO gigs have been mentioned in TV, in text TV as a "big" gigs, in the newspapers and in the net also. So this time U.D.O. has been marketed very well, at least in Finland. I think that is due to the Accept show in Finland in the summer 2005. I also have to say this: the venue that UDO plays in Helsinki is quite big one with 2800 capacity!!! Well, it is not JUST because of UDO but there is being feld a big occcasion called Finnish Metal Expo at the same time. Tickets are ONLY 20 Euros. ;D

Time to do some U.D.O. PR dept. bashing again. The lazy bunch of morons didn't manage to get more than aprox. 80 ppl. to the Stockholm gig. I find no words for their total lack of competence..

It's strange because I think at FME in Helsinki U.D.O. will have a 2800 people as audience.

u.d.o. should get on a real label with real promotion. they seem to have been doing everything half assed for years now. u.d.o. shouldn't be some bulls-h-i-t bar band. they should be doing large venues and having local bands or up and coming band open for them!

There is one bad thing concerning the UDO gig. Today it is also held a DIABLO concert in Tampere also. Yeah, it is only a Finnish band, but their record was at the first place in top 40 albums in Finland when it was released and it still is in top 10. I know that some people are going to see Diablo instead of U.D.O. Well, those people don't know what they are missing... ;D
