DORO Performs In China; Photos, Video Footage Available

November 30, 2008

German metal queen Doro Pesch played her first shows ever in China on November 15 and November 16 in Guangzhou and Beijing, respectively, in conjunction with a three-year exhibition/festival/culture exchange project initiated by the Chinese and German governments. According to a posting on Doro's web site, more than 30,000 people turned up to watch her perform.

Commented Doro: "The gigs were just awesome. The fans really partied out during the shows. I would not have expected them to be that much into metal and my music, especially as these were my first shows in China."

A short fan-filmed video clip of Doro performing in Guangzhou can be viewed below.
