X-Perience Live at Kesselhaus (Berlin)

Well, almost! The Berlin concert for this 2024 was initially scheduled to take place in the Maschinenhaus, but the venue soon became too small for the large number of people who wanted to attend, so in March it was announced that the show would be moved to its sister venue, the Kesselhaus, to finally accommodate more than 450 people, a good thermometer to show how X-Perience’s stage work has managed to capture the attention of the public.
Want to know more? We tell you all about it!
X-PERIENCE AT KESSELHAUS - The Location
The Kesselhaus is a legendary Berlin hall, part of the Kulturbaraurerei, a complex of buildings listed in 1974 for its unique architecture. The former brewery became not only the largest brewery in Berlin at the end of the 19th century, but also the largest brewery in the world in the 1920s.

The Kesselhaus and Maschinenhaus share the same entrance, wardrobe and architectural style, however, as soon as you enter the hall, the main difference becomes apparent. This year, X-Perience has a much larger space in all dimensions!

X-PERIENCE AT KESSELHAUS - The VIP Pass
One of the novelties of this concert was the possibility to upgrade your ticket by bringing your ticket to the venue one hour before the regular opening time to participate in a bandmeeting.
An upgrade automatically included for those who had been signed up to GetNext’s MEGAFAN reward for at least 3 months before the concert
Nathalie tells us how she experienced this moment
The Fanclub met in front of the Kesselhaus before the entrance was opened. We talked a lot, did photos with the famous flag. There were new faces but also, of course, a lot of known ones ☺️
Shortly after 18:00 the doors of the Kesselhaus were opened and Bernd was calling all the VIPs to come inside. So everyone with a VIP Ticket or the Getnext (Megafan) subscription were allowed to enter.
the fan club gathered in front of the Kesselhaus gates
At the entrance you needed to show the ticket or tell your Getnext name and got a little voucher for drinks. Bernd was greeting everyone and checked if everything was alright!
Afterwards you were able to put your jackets to the wardrobe and could go a few stairs up right into the Kesselhaus! – a really huge stage… way bigger than last year.
There was on the left the huge Merchandise where Matthias was already waiting and Claudi came to greet everyone with a lovely hug!
The Merchandise stand was offering a lot of articles, including CDs, Stickers, Posters – and, of course, the brand new Angelzoom Album (a limited amount of the Pre-Prints).
With the voucher we were able to get a sparkling wine or water – and so we all cheered together. 🥂
By the time Alex, Marilyn, Andreas Uhle and all the other family members came and to greet everyone. It was the perfect time to get signatures and do a small smalltalk with 😍
The atmosphere was great! – Band and Fans so close together.. almost felt like a big family. ❤️
About an hour later the normal entrance started. A few band members, like Claudi and Lyn, went backstage to prepare for the show.
The Kesselhaus was filled very quickly and so above 400 people were waiting for the start of the concert.
Thank you so much Nathalie for sharing this experience with us! 🤗♥
X-PERIENCE AT KESSELHAUS - The Concert
There’s nothing like coming home, having a room full of X-Perience fans and on stage, having the full band back.
On the left, Matthias’s stand with his fireproof Roland XP-10, to which a new sticker with a black background and white ‘X-PERIENCE’ lettering had been applied that morning, the old one, which had been on for 30 years, had already been removed. The old one, which had been on for 30 years, had already been removed.
Next to him, Andreas’ music stand, where we all expect him to place the sheet music for songs like Wasted Times, Come into my Life and of course Game of Love. His trumpet adds a distinctive touch to our favourite synthpop band!
In the centre is Claudia’s place, her presence and her voice are undoubtedly the centre of attention in the room.
from left to right: Andreas, Matthias, Claudia, Lyn, Bernd and Alex
Behind her is almost always Lyn, although the second voice of X-Perience is so at home on stage that she is often seen visiting her bandmates’ booth to sing with them!
The next position is that of Bernd, with keyboards and vocals.
Finally, to the right of the stage, Alex finally returns to the stage, now fit and recovered, to take over his command centre where he is in charge of all the sequencing of the concert.

The night was going to be full of surprises and they started with a new intro prepared for Endless Summer, (good way to start the last night of summer!) and then a new version of I Don’t Care, but a new one! different from the one heard in previous concerts like in Magdeburg!
Towards the middle of the concert, Bernardo was welcomed on stage as a special guest, who played an introduction to Mirror on the piano… but as I find it weird to talk about myself in the third person 😅 I’ll do a different post to tell you about the whole experience! 😘👍
Mirror was actually the first song of a fantastic idea that I hope will be kept for future concerts.
The Medley, 6 songs summed up in just 10 minutes! And when you have such a wide repertoire of beloved songs beyond the hits, it’s difficult to choose which songs stay in and which ones stay out of the playlist even with two hours of concert!

Next it was Lyn’s turn to take to the front of the stage to perform her latest single, ‘Whenever it Takes’ live. The reworking with Daniel LaPeur of one of the singles from her second album is doing very well on social media and live it was amazing to see how Lyn immediately took the audience by storm, moving around the stage with an irresistible panache and naturalness.
And for performances, no doubt Angelzoom, whose return has been warmly celebrated by X-Perience fans and who were grateful that Claudia and Bernd’s project had its moment in the night, filling the stage with 80’s Forever, the most synthpop song of their new EP “Grateful”.
The night continued with more hits like the latest single To France or Magic Fields, but when it was time to leave the stage, the audience was still hungry for more and the applause and requests made the band come back to play 4 indispensable songs that nobody wanted to miss. Starting with Game of Love, with which Andreas fills us with love with his soft and sweet trumpet and ending with the classic version of A Nverending Dream which was a warm embrace of nostalgia that left the audience with a feeling of fullness and satisfaction.
