by I have to give in: the red carpet is not my favorite location. Nonetheless, I felt very thankful that after some trouble and a rather late notice I was able to have some impressions of the celebrities, who partied the very first night of the German Rock of Ages tour. I already gave you my thoughts about the German show – this posting is just about the people who came to rock for the first official night after the preview show. A bit of yellow press feeling on Flyctory.com – hope you nonetheless enjoy this very special Pictured Story on Flyctory.com.
There is a combined gallery with a total of 311 major size pictures as part of the concert gallery, featuring the show epilogue as well as the red carpet impressions.

Rock of Ages Germany Opening Night – Red Carpet Impressions
Here are some impressions from the red carpet at the Deutsches Theater in Munich, where quite a significant proportion of shows takes place at the beginning of the tour.
