The Metal Dayz can deliver more than just good concerts. The supporting program is at least as spectacular and varied as the bands that honor us this year. Now we want to introduce you to all the frame program points:
For example, listen to funny, bizarre and crazy stories from the world of rock and metal bands from one who knows exactly what's going on: Christof Leim, who plays in the bands Sinner, The New Black and Heavysaurus and was editor-in-chief of Metal Hammer, has more than enough stories in store that he wants to share with you.
Those who prefer to become active and want to indulge their passion for music should definitely visit Metal Yoga. Saskia Thode has made her two favorite hobbies her profession and combines loud metal music with classical and not so classical yoga. Every level of yoga experience is welcome in their sessions - especially those who have never dared to try yoga before!
Micha-El Goehre lives as author, poetry slammer and moderator in Essen. He regularly appears with solo shows and at festivals, readingins and poetry slams all over Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, Belgium and Switzerland. Now he visits Hamburg. As a poetry slammer he has already won hundreds of poetry battles and as a moderator he is responsible for the slam "Rumpus + Tenderness" in Essen.
Ricky Wagner (lead guitar and vocals at REZET) takes you on a journey of his musical career. The studied guitar teacher shows tips and tricks on how to take your guitar skills to a higher level. The exchange with the audience is particularly welcome here and is in focus. For beginners to professionals a must!
Appropriately, the question arises, how do you do shouts, screams and growls without ripping your vocal cords? The shoutcoach Thomas Fischer knows exactly who and offers a workshop at the Hamburg Metal Dayz!
You may not have known yet, but that's what you've been waiting for: Speak Metal - The Heavy Podcast usually brings you new, absurd, and sometimes profound metal-world news right into your ears every week. At the Metal Dayz Jasper and Stefan are now live and on site with all sorts of topics from the metal world. At Speak Metal they do not hold back with their personal opinions, so it is full of blasphemy and hatered, but quite often also full of love. Do not miss it!
Just in time for his 70th birthday, Klaus Büchner, co-founder of Torfrock and the voice of the well-known cult character Werner, published his first poetry book "Hanebüchner" in March 2018. The cult singer organizes his musical reading tour together with Christoph Stein-Schneider (Fury / Wohnraumhelden). In an original way, the two artists combine prosaic reading and musical show-taking into a special kind of entertainment program that they want to show off at Metal Dayz.
In addition, Kai Havaii and Stefan Kleinkrieg, the front- and songwriting duo of EXTRABREIT, invite you to an evening full of anecdotes, grotesque stories and legendary tunes: Havaii reads from his autobiography "Hart wie Marmelade - Memories of a Maniac" and brings extra petty warfare Hits unplugged to sound. A time travel of a special kind: fast, funny and full of intensity.
The team of Black Pearl Tattoo from Husby near Flensburg is also there at the Hamburg Metal Dayz 2018 and decorates the skin of some lucky winners with small works of art. And of course, the Trash Bingo with Maschine is there to be played.
So you see, there is something for everyone.
