Recently they warmed Sports fans Stiller an anecdote from 2004 on. Herbert Grönemeyer had taken the Munich offspring on tour. At the intro of “Heimatlied” one of the audience shouted: “That’s not music!” Flo, Peter and Rüde were so curled up with laughter at this outrage that they couldn’t continue playing for a while.
That brings back memories of other supporting acts. Often unpleasant, at least for the bands that had promised a lot like them Bananafishbones in Bad Tölz, whose performance in front of Neil Young was called off because the master damaged his guitar finger while smearing sandwiches. Career-conscious people even plundered the band’s box office in order to present themselves in front of a large audience for thousands of marks, only to have to be booed in their 30 Minutes of Fame. Both Rolling Stones It was different, because they booked after having had a good experience with the local band ZZ top in Texas on their “Still live” tour in 1982 simply those artists who were currently selling the most records, and in Germany that was Peter Maffay. The result, however, was disastrous and is treated in the biography of the Tutzinger rocker as “Waterloo”: When, after a few soft songs by the ex-pop singer, “there was talk of a rocking horse, the first fruit flew …”
But it rarely went well, and the support act received applause not only when the main act was named. To the flame show of Rammstein Everyone present in the Muffathalle in 1997 remembers, but who still knows what came next? The wood, or was it That I?. When Linkin ‘Park the demo tape of the Emil Bulls heard during the soundcheck break, they invited the Schäftlarner personally. After the anger marvel of Kreisky in the Elserhalle nobody wanted the sandpit rockers anymore Madsen Listen; likewise claims the editorial colleague, who once with Drowning By Numbers before Giant sand was allowed to play just because the US indie stars needed their Fender twin amplifiers: “We sunk them!”
The news from the sports fans in their “Oldletter” is: You will be performing again this year in front of Grönemeyer, around June 8th in the Olympiahalle, and that’s nice.
