Doro rocks and shakes the House of Blues<\/strong> <\/p>\n

\"Doro\"The metal queen Doro Pesch shook the House of Blues on Friday night Feb. 22.<\/p>\n

Doro\u2019s show was over two hours of metal and energy that the audience could not stop fist pumping, shouting and headbanging with over 20 songs and five encores. She started the show with Warlock\u2019s \u201cI Rule the Ruins\u201d then followed with \u201cEarth Shaker Rock.\u201d The songs were combinations from Warlock and her albums. The band has been touring the U.S. for the last five years, though previous tours they were doing some east coast shows. Doro has been consistently recording and performing for 30 years and that\u2019s why she is the \u201cMetal Queen\u201d and there will be more years of music from her. <\/p>\n

The band was non-stop energy and very interactive with the audience. Nick Douglas on bass and Johnny Dee on drums have been with her for over 20 years with new members of the band \u2014 Luca Princiotta on guitar and keyboards and Bas Maas on guitar. They played three songs from the new album Raise Your Fist<\/em>: The title song, \u201cRevenge\u201d and \u201cHero\u201d which is dedicated to Ronnie James Dio. The Warlock songs were \u201cAll We Are,\u201d \u201cTrue as Steel,\u201d \u201cBurning the Witches,\u201d Johnny\u2019s drum solo during \u201cMetal Racer.\u201d Other songs they played were Judas Priest\u2019s \u201cBreaking The Law,\u201d \u201cUnholy Love,\u201d \u201cFur Immer,\u201d \u201cMetal Tango\u201d and four encores. She took requests for that, including \u201cLove Me In Black,\u201d \u201cBurn It Up,\u201d and \u201cEast Meets West.\u201d
\nThe crowd wanted more and they could have played more. <\/p>\n

Overall the night was energizing and the crowd didn\u2019t want it to end, still shaking from the music and power. <\/p>\n
