Folks,
wanna tell you about a concert I visited last night.
It was a band that quit in 1989 with the "Last Party Tour" and in 2008 they started the "next Party tour". To be honest I think most of you did not know the band, because it is a german one, although they had some fans in the Netherlands and the UK as well.
The band is called "Grobschnitt" and was founded in 1970. In the press it was always called progressive rock and some called it Krautrock (I hate this). It was not only the music, it was the show... what impressive.
Nearly 20 years of absence ended yesterday and my ears are still ringing. What a show, but the sound could have been better (now the sound engineer is writing ;) ). Only because the audience knowed all the text of the songs they were able to sing with the band. The mix of all the instruments was very OK but only for the vox there was missing the brilliance.
And the best was, beside the show, I met people I missed more than 10 years (including two ex-girlfriends, but this might be another topic)
and the people where smoking cigarettes which looked strange. some longer and the smell was a bit different :D
