7/05/06 Walpurgis night (Berlin part 2)
I invite you to Walpurgis night (April 30th) in Berlin-Friedrishain (ex-East Berlin) with A.C.K. a punk band from Frankfurt am Main who is singing lyrics in German very involved in politics specially against racism and fascism. The whole night the ambience was electric hesitating between a ritual civil urban war like for every 1st of May in Berlin-Kreuzberg or only a provocation to the police for fun…I let you dive in the sound and hear the story in both languages English and German. Thanks to Ralf, Markus and Gisbert, my partners in this adventure.

The concert with A.C.K. with the police’s presence everywhere; from 10:pm the police “began cleaning the place” but it was possible to escape in a bar and look at their operations throught the window : surrealistic for me !

Quelle production importante pour les fans de musique décoiffante ! ;-)) Même si ça n’est pas ma tasse de thé, je suis convaincu que c’est ta meilleure production, ta marque de fabrique, ton “créneau” ; le reste est accessoire. T’as du style ! Bravo !

AAAAnnie, tout le meltingpod en allemand !!!!!!! tu exagères j’ai tout écouté et j’ai rien compris evidemment. à part polizei konflit et antikonflit team voilà mon résumé…….. tu aurais pu te fendre de plus nombreux intermèdes en français pour nous mettre dans le jus… je comprends que tu aies voulu faire un test pour voir où sont des vrais supporters parce-qu’écouter ce long Meltingpod chez Goethe c’est pas donné a tout le monde. J’exige ma médaille !!!!

Nadine, tu as une médaille d’accord mais tu exagères en grande marseillaise…the podcast is half is in English, half in German but we change all the time it’s true : Meltingpod language !
My American friend Mike was lost too…:)
Alert : For the French speakers two new podcasts on line on MELTINGTALKS : Enjoy the political stories with a French Senator from Marseille !

I thought it was kind of interesting having it 1/2 German and 1/2 English, sort of like Arte without the voice-over . . . !
Anyway, sounds like a fun afternoon in Berlin : beer, sausages, and a friendly fight with der polizei for later in the day. Couldn’t they just organise a football match next time ?

Excellent idea to interview “in live” the public and to record the concert !
A different podcast music but “in studio” go to http://www.auboutdufil.com

The end of the Eurovision Song Contest ?
Lately I asked you to vote for LORDI from Finland and they won the contest…
They are not exactly what I like or love in Rock&Roll but they opened a door. I hope lots of european ROCK bands like A.C.K. could enter now.
Ja ! Ich hoffe A.C.K. kann im Eurovision ROCK spielen.
Comme d’habitude, les commentaires français (et c’était Michel Drucker cette fois) ont été pathétiques !
La concurrente française a été pathétique aussi, comme d’habitude également. France five points ! (c’était sur plus de 200 et pas sur 20).
What a shame ! There are such good ROCK bands in France too ! In Paris, in Marseille, Saint Etienne, Bordeaux, Rennes, etc.
Tchüss !
Salut Annie.
