30 years of DORO! 30 years of rock and metal! 30 years of dedication, passion and love for the music and the fans. DORO celebrated the 30th anniversary of performing live during 2013/2014 by touring the world extensively for a year and by playing three anniversary shows!
The tour kicked off impressively in front of 85,000 people at the world's biggest metal festival, Wacken - the crowning finish was two sold-out nights in her hometown, Dusseldorf.
And everyone wanted to be a part of it: Phil Campbell (MOTÖRHEAD), Biff Byford (SAXON), Chris Caffery (SAVATAGE), Blaze Bayley (ex-IRON MAIDEN), Joakim Brodén (SABATON), Hansi Kürsch (BLIND GUARDIAN), Udo Dirkschneider, Uli Jon Roth, LORDI as well as many more amazing guests - the list of stars who celebrated the metal queen on stage comes across like a "Who's Who" of the rock and metal scene.
Three decades of DORO - three unforgettable nights - forever captured on three DVDs and two Blu-rays! Nuclear Blast releases the incredible DORO anniversary shows on June 24th, »Strong And Proud - 30 Years Of Rock And Metal«. A great memory for everyone who attended the concerts and a revelation for all fans of good, hard rock music and classy live performance. Not to mention DORO's obvious joy of playing live.
DORO: "We spent endless hours, days and night working on the DVD, because we wanted to present a real highlight for all rock and metal fans for the 30th anniversary. We took care of every detail. It began already with the bombastic stage in Wacken, we worked one year on its design. In Dusseldorf, we even celebrated two nights in a row. One "Classic Night" with a 40-piece orchestra and one "balls to the wall" rock show on the second evening. Furthermore we played anniversary shows in Moscow and New York."
»Strong And Proud - 30 Years Of Rock And Metal« contains 38 songs in total, a full load of rock and metal, including all DORO classics, many old WARLOCK hits und ingenius cover versions of songs such as 'Fear Of The Dark' (IRON MAIDEN) and 'Balls To The Wall' (ACCEPT). The filming and cutting is phenomenal, and the sound crystal-clear. Once again, the packaging was painted by DORO's favourite artist, Geoffrey Gillespie.
Additionally, »Strong And Proud - 30 Years Of Rock And Metal« offers a detailed, revealing movie with a two-hour plus documentary , »Behind The Curtain, Inside The Heart Of DORO«. It reveals the amazing unseen insights behind the scenes and during DORO's touring life.
DORO: "There's always great impressions from all over the world and never before seen pictures from our life behind the stage. The camera team accompanied us for over one year everywhere and captured very emotional, intimate and human situations."
This unique music movie takes the viewer on DORO's world trip, to South America, Moscow, and New York. The title hits the nail right on the head: »Behind The Curtain, Inside The Heart Of DORO«.
