Ein halbes Jahrhundert nach der Bandgründung: Andy Scott geht mit SWEET auf Geburtstagstour – und denkt gar nicht ans Aufhören

Andy Scott gave The Sweet for a maximum of ten years when he joined the band in 1970 - now the guitarist is going on an anniversary tour on the occasion of the band's foundation 50 years ago. The 68-year-old, who once led the formation from bubblegum pop to glam rock and hard rock, would have liked to have played birthday concerts together with bassist Steve Priest, who is mainly on tour in the USA with a group of the same name. But that won't happen, as Scott regrets in an interview with eclipsed.

eclipsed: To be honest, could you imagine going on that birthday tour in 2018 when you joined The Sweet?

Andy Scott: No, of course not.

eclipsed: A few years ago you announced one last Sweet tour. What's the situation now, will The Sweet continue?
