The carpeted, cinder-block room where the band mingles with friends, family and strangers normally serves as a locker room for football players, but today it's a postconcert rest area, a place to relax and escape the summer heat. Their set earlier this summer on the five-band "Monsters of Rock" tour is over and they've already taken the 50-yard limo ride from the end-zone stage to the inner sanctums of RFK. The torches wane, but the chant of "Scorps!" grows louder.īut there will be no more music today from the Scorpions. The fans want more of what West Germany's Scorpions just gave them: heavy metal with a sonic yet melodic punch. More than 40,000 people are yelling, writhing and lighting paper cups on fire, thrusting the torches heavenward in a heavy metal gesture meaning "We Want More!"Īlthough roadies are scurrying around the stage like hungry rodents, picking up and pulling wires, clearing instruments and preparing for the next band, the noise persists.
