Zwischenfall, Bochum, Germany9th January 2009
Vintage Electronic Festival: No More, Vomito Negro, Click Click
Belgium, Germany and the north of England were the centres of the New Wave, Industrial & EBM explosion in the 1980s. At the VINTAGE ELECTRONIC FESTIVAL in Bochum got a fine (well) vintage act from each of these alternative music strongholds. The Zwischenfall club in Bochum is probably for the Alternative/Goth scene in West Germany as essential as all those pioneering bands hailing from Central Europe and the UK. It was pretty much the first and for quite a while the only club in the area where you could listen to all the early heroes of Goth, EBM, Industrial and Wave. And see gigs of them! So it truly made sense that the VINTAGE ELECTRONIC FESTIVAL featuring CLICK CLICK, VOMITO NEGRO and NO MORE plus a whole bunch of DJs back from the day took place at this legendary club.

Passionskirche, Berlin, Germany
22nd December 2008
Corvus CoraxThe venue has to be one of the prettiest I have ever attended, set as it is in Marheinekeplatz, a small square in Kreutzberg, Berlin, where there was an evening Christmas Market going on to start the excellent atmosphere of the night off. Crowds of all ages milled happily about looking at the stalls and drinking Glühwein as they waited for the doors to open.

Kulturfabrik, Krefeld, Germany9th January 2009
Tyske Ludder, DAF
What’s best on a cold, cold winter’s night when you’re even freezing you’re hands off with your gloves on? A sweat inducing concert and the only DAF show of the "Der 30-jährige Krieg - als wär's das letzte Mal" tour in the Ruhr area promised to be such an event and besides, when you’re getting a chance to see a cult formation like DAF you don’t pass it up.

Arena Berlin, Germany19th December 2008
In Extremo - Sängerkrieg / The Black Sheep
Yes, it’s a cold winter. So much the better that IN EXTREMO put the heating on full blast at the end of the last year - last but not least because of their Pyro-Show & Fire-Stuff on their stage. The guys choose the arena Treptow for their Berlin show... possibly not the best choice. The arena has although a nice ambiance but the building has not the optimal acoustics.
