With additional dates confirmed for the Japan tour, Michael Schenker is suddenly feeling more energized. This latest, powerful footage further fuels those expectations. This work was filmed at the Fort Lauderdale performance on September 6, 2025. It's a front-row audience shot. While the greatest feature of this work is the experience of monopolizing the show from the ultimate special seat, another thing we shouldn't forget is the singer. On the current "MY YEARS WITH UFO Tour," Eric Gronwall and RD Liapakis alternate between performance locations. To understand the current situation, let's start with a bird's-eye view of their ongoing activities. 2025 March 11th + 14th: MOR Cruise (2 shows) (Robin McCauley replaced by Eric Gronwall) "MY YEARS WITH UFO Tour" April 9th - May 15th: Europe #1 (28 shows) ← *BARCELONA 2025 etc. June 28th - August 23rd: Europe #2 (9 shows) ← *WACKEN 2025 (Gronwall replaced by RD Liapakis) September 5th - October 19th: North America (30 shows) ← ★Here★ 2026 (Liapakis replaced by Gronwall) January 28-29: Japan (3 shows) (Gronwall replaced by Liapakis?) February 18-March 22: Europe #3 (22 shows) April 7-13: Germany (7 shows) This is the 2025/2026 schedule announced so far. The Japan show has been added, and a subsequent European tour has also been announced. Things are finally starting to look like a full-scale world tour. The current official singer is Eric Gronwall, but last year he temporarily withdrew from the tour due to a family illness. RD Liapakis took over. Things were going well until Gronwall returned to the tour safely shortly after, but then things got complicated. It was announced that Liapakis will front the band for the currently ongoing North American leg and next year's Europe #3 leg. For now, Gronwall is scheduled to sing for the Japan show, but it's becoming increasingly unclear who the official singer will be. Meanwhile, the Fort Lauderdale performance marked the second show of the ongoing North American leg. It marked the first show since the tour resumed with RD Liapakis. This vacuum-packed footage offers a powerful, front-row experience of the full show. Being in the front row is impressive enough, but the seating on either side is also exceptional, sitting exactly between the singer and Michael. The view, free of other audience members, creates an otherworldly feeling of "just you and the band." And because it's a club-sized venue, it feels like you could touch him if you let your eyes wander...or rather, you can experience a sense of intimacy, like jumping right into his arms. It's so close that Michael might even yell, "You're getting too close!" From this exceptional seat, you can experience a UFO paradise transformed by Liapakis's singing voice. The tracklist itself remains the same as the European edition, but there are some minor changes. Let's summarize the details here: Force It (4 songs), Mother Mary, This Kid's, Let It Roll, Shoot Shoot, No Heavy Petting (4 songs), Natural Thing, I'm A Loser, Can You Roll Her, Reasons Love, and others (7 songs). New Murderous Intent: Lights Out, Love To Love, Too Hot To Handle, and others: Only You Can Rock Me, Hot 'N' Ready, Doctor Doctor, Rock Bottom... While Europe featured solo moments based on instrumental tracks like "Lipstick Traces," these were omitted in North America. There were no new songs, much talked about in "WACKEN 2025," and the show was a careful listen, focusing on each song. While their long-awaited return to Nippon Budokan is much talked about for their Japan tour next year, this album is the complete opposite: a club gig. This film is a shocking video that lets you experience UFO Paradise from the front row. It's the luxury of sharing space with the guitar god in a closed-door atmosphere where you can almost feel his breath. This is a front-row audience shot from the "September 6, 2025 Fort Lauderdale performance." Sitting in the front row, exactly between the singer and Michael, you're completely surrounded by the stage, with no other audience members visible, giving you the otherworldly feeling of "just you and the band." Experience UFO Paradise from a super-premium seat, with RD Liapakis singing with a powerful voice reminiscent of Mark Tornillo.
