YOU - THE LAST CONCERTS
After YOU had restarted playing live again in 2017 – after a break of several years – three live concerts took place. First on December 15, 2017 in Krefeld, Germany, the second on May 4, 2018 in Berlin‘s FEZ at the Superbooth Festival. These two concerts are documented on this album.
The final YOU concert took place on June 8, 2018 in Krefeld. Unfortunately, no recording of that performance was made.
On August 14, 2018, band founder Udo Hanten passed away and the band YOU
came to an end after almost 40 years of music.
