Says Schenker, “It’s a miracle that after all these years, something like this took place with the original band members of M.S.G. Being able to go back to those days and celebrate the music is an exciting experience for us, as well as for old and new fans. To be able to re-experience, and for the new audience to get a feel of what it was like, is incredibly enjoyable.”
