Nik Kershaw: A review of 1984 and his comeback in Kaiserslautern!

Kaiserslautern, Deutschland - Nik Kershaw, the unforgettable star of the 80s, is back and brings the memories of 1984 with his current tour to Kaiserslautern! This year he experienced the rapid climb to fame, which changed his life forever. "It was a wild ride," Kershaw recalls the time when he became one of the most sought-after stars in the pop world from an unknown musician. Within a few weeks he could no longer take to the streets without bodyguard. Two albums in one year and countless appearances - the pressure was enormous, but overwhelming the excitement!

The sudden fame brought both shine and shadow. Kershaw, once shy and reserved, suddenly saw himself in the spotlight and became the object of public attention. "People had the feeling that I belong to them," he says, describing the challenges that were accompanied by fame. The British press, known for its sharp judgments, did not make it easier. "I decided not to read reviews anymore," he explains to protect himself from the negative comments. Despite the difficulties, success gave him a certain self-confidence, even if he often fought with the high-truck syndrome.

an unforgettable appearance at Live Aid

Another memorable moment was his appearance at the legendary Live Aid concert in Wembley. "Two billion people watched," Kershaw recalls the nervousness that came over him. "I stood next to me with nervousness," he confesses, describing how he stumbled across the text of his hits "Woodn’t it be good". Despite the panic that he seized, the audience noticed nothing - proof of his acting talent, which brought him through this stressful situation.

fans can look forward to a nostalgic experience when Kershaw appears in the Kammgarn in Kaiserslautern on December 12th. Under the motto "1984" he will play both albums that have been released this year, play live and maybe have some surprises ready. Kershaw, who is still enthusiastic about his music today, remains an unmistakable part of pop history!
