Scorpions - Send Me An Angel [Gdansk, Poland_04 June 2009]
The concert titled "It started in Poland " took place in Gdańsk
shipyard 04 June 2009 to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the first
free elections in Eastern Europe.
Gdańsk Shipyard is a large
Polish shipyard, located in the city of Gdańsk. The yard gained
international fame when Solidarity (Solidarność) was founded there in
September 1980. In 1980 Gdańsk was the arena for events that changed
the face of the world. A strike by 17,000 ship builders saw Solidarity
(Solidarność), led by shipyard electrician Lech Wałęsa, recognised as
the first non-communist trade union in the then Soviet Eastern Bloc.
The move was one of the first successful steps that led to the eventual
collapse of communism, across Eastern Europe. In Poland on 4th June,
1989 the first free elections to Parliament were held in the whole
communist world which marked the begining of the end of communist rule
in Eastern Europe. Later that year in November the Berlin Wall came down..
