    Livereview: Whitesnake - Kharma 16. November 2008, Zürich - Schützenhaus Albisgüetli By Rockslave Es gab nicht wenige Leute, die ob dem neuen Studio-Album «Good To Be Bad» ziemlich baff waren, respektive der weissen Schlange so ein Comeback kaum zugetraut hätten. Doch 2008, dem mit Abstand besten Jahr in Sachen Rock und Metal seit Langem, passt es einfach wie die Faust aufs Auge, dass auch Whitesnake hier mit von der Partie sind. Der geneigte Fan wurde live wie auch von der Tonträgerseite her regelrecht verwöhnt und es bleibt zu hoffen, dass dieser Zustand noch möglichst lange anhalten wird. Coverdale & Co. waren das letzte Mal im Juni 2006 im Zürcher Volkshaus zu Gast und lieferten dort einen starken Auftritt ab, der unter anderem von der idealen Location profitieren konnte. Dieses Detail war heute Abend auch im Fokus, denn das schmuck und weihnächtlich beleuchtete Schützenhaus machte in der Vergangenheit eher Schlagzeilen in Zusammen- hang mit Ex-Bundesrat Christoph Blocher denn als Austragungsort für (Rock-) Konzerte. Man durfte also ge- spannt sein! Kharma Den Ost-Schweizer Rock-Fünfer sah ich dieses Jahr nach Huttwil und Lenzburg nun bereits zum dritten Mal! Während der Auftritt am «Rock- sound Festival» ganz ordentlich geriet, harzte es in Lenzburg etwas, vorab wegen der Technik. Das schien hier in Zürich zum Glück kein Thema zu sein. So eröffneten Kharma den Konzertabend vor einer be- reits stattlichen Anzahl Fans, was mitunter auch zu einem Teil an den kalten Aussentemperaturen gelegen haben dürfte. Sei's drum..., auf je- den Fall umso besser für den heutigen Support, der kraftvoll loslegte und das Publikum schon bald auf seine Seite ziehen konnte.

  • ASCAP/BMI Comment
    Stuart Rosen Senior Vice President General Counsel November 20, 2015 Chief, Litigation III Section Antitrust Division U.S. Department of Justice 450 5th Street NW, Suite 4000 Washington, DC 20001 Re: Justice Department Review of the BMI and ASCAP Consent Decrees To the Chief of the Litigation III Section: BMI recently alerted its community of affiliated songwriters, composers and publishers to the profound impact 100% licensing would have on their careers, both creatively and financially, if it were to be mandated by the U.S. Department of Justice. In a call to action, BMI provided a letter, one for songwriters and one for publishers, to which their signatures could be added. The response was overwhelming. BMI received nearly 13,000 signatures from writers, composers and publishers of all genres of music, at all levels in their careers. Some of the industry's most well- known songwriters added their names, including Stephen Stills, Cynthia Weil, Steve Cropper, Ester Dean, Dean Pitchford, Congressman John Hall, Trini Lopez, John Cafferty, Gunnar Nelson, Lori McKenna, Shannon Rubicam and Don Brewer, among many others. Enclosed you will find the letters, with signatures attached. On behalf of BMI, I strongly urge you to consider the voices of thousands of songwriters and copyright owners reflected here before making a decision that will adversely affect both the creators, and the ongoing creation of, one ofAmerica's most important cultural and economic resources. Vert truly yours, Stuart Rosen 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10007-0030 (212) 220-3153 Fax: (212) 220-4482 E-Mail: [email protected] ® A Registered Trademark of Broadcast Music, Inc.
