Germany's Scorpions planning farewell tour
The German rock band Scorpions is bringing down the curtain on a career spanning more than four decades, The Associated Press reports. The band, known for its early 1990s hit "Wind of Change" among others, said on its Web site Sunday "we agree we have reached the end of the road." The rockers said they would end the band's career with a final album - "Sting In The Tail," to be released in March - and a tour that will start in Germany in May and take it across the world "over the next few years." Guitarist Rudolf Schenker founded the band in Hannover in 1965.
