After releasing their “Best Of” album Buckcherry is now touring and playing those awesome songs live. Buckcherry is an American rock band from Anaheim, California formed in 1995. Along they brought the Swedish rock band Hardcore Superstar.

On this tour the guys stopped by in Aschaffenburg, Germany. An almost sold out Tuesday night brought quite some Hardcore Superstar and Buckcherry fans to the Colossaal. The venue was crowded and everyone was excited to see the bands. As Hardcore Superstar entered the stage the audience went wild. The Swedish band played all their hits, played with the audience and talked to their fans in between. The audience sang along to all songs, danced and cheered out loud. It was an energetic show with lots of good vibes and fun. Everyone was having a blast – band and audience. What a party. An hour later Hardcore Superstar was done with their show and went off stage. The fans were shouting for more, so the guys came back on stage and played two more songs.

Last band of the night was Buckcherry. After a quick break and fresh air, a cigarette for some and a drink for other, the audience got back together in the venue to party with the Californians. Buckcherry played all their hits including “Next To You”, “All Night Long”, “Crazy Bitch”, “Everything”, “Sorry” and many more. The audience went insane to the music. And so did the band on stage. Rocking around and using up the entire space they had, playing with the audience and throwing guitar picks at them. In between the songs the guys talked to their fans. The fog and light set the perfect atmosphere even for the slow songs Buckcherry was playing. Now and then they included a guitar solo. As the singer introduced the entire band each band member got to play a solo on their instrument which was really great. After over an hour the guys went off stage, but they as well were called back by the audience to play another three songs. Oh what a night full of awesome bands and awesome music. Hardcore Superstar and Buckcherry sure was a cool combination. Let’s hope they will tour together again some day.
