Michael Schenker Group - My Years With UFO - 50th Anniversary Celebration

In the organizer's words:

Guitar legend Michael Schenker celebrates the 50th anniversary of his time with UFO live on tour

By joining UFO at the end of 1973, the then 18-year-old Michael Schenker contributed significantly to the international mega-success of the British rock band and rose from a "German wunderkind" to one of the most renowned guitarists of our time, who continues to influence entire generations of musicians worldwide with his legendary guitar playing.

During his time with UFO from 1974-1978, known as the "Schenker era", Michael Schenker released five groundbreaking studio albums such as "Lights Out" (1977) or "Phenomenon" (1974) and the live album "Strangers In The Night" (Live in Chicago 1978), which is still considered groundbreaking today, and is jointly responsible for worldwide hits such as "Doctor Doctor", "Rock Bottom" or "Only You Can Rock Me".

Michael Schenker is not only celebrating the 50th anniversary of his time with UFO with reissues of the best UFO songs of that time with many guest stars on recordings, but is also embarking on a major European tour with his backing band in 2025.

The "My Years With UFO" tour spans several European countries and starts on 09.04.2025 in the Netherlands. From 10.04.2025, the guitar virtuoso, probably the most famous "Flying V" player in the world, can also be experienced live in Germany with the greatest hits and classics of his UFO era.
