SCORPIONS Cancel Second Consecutive Show Amid KLAUS MEINE’s ‘Respiratory Infection’

Due to Klaus Meine‘s ongoing recovery from a virus and respiratory infection, hard rock icons SCORPIONS have had to cancel their scheduled performance at the Monsters Of Rock festival in Bogotá, Colombia, last night (Wednesday, April 30th).

Band said in a statement: It is with great regret that SCORPIONS will be unable to perform in Bogotá tonight. Klaus has still not recovered from the virus and respiratory infection that forced the recent Buenos Aires cancellation for SCORPIONS and is unfortunately still unable to sing. The band send massive apologies to all their loyal fans in Colombia and are again extremely disappointed not to be able to play in one of their favourite countries.

“They’ll make every effort to return to Colombia in the future.”

SCORPIONS released their latest album, Rock Believer, in February 2022. Most of the recording took place at Peppermint Park Studios in Hannover, Germany, while mixing was handled at the iconic Hansa Studios in Berlin. The mix engineer, Michael Ilbert—known for his Grammy-nominated collaborations with producer Max Martin on projects for artists like Taylor Swift and Katy Perry—lent his expertise to the final sound.
