Chain Reaction, Anaheim, CA27th July 2009
I Am Ghost
What makes a live album? Well you need a stage, a band, sound equipment, what else is missing? Perhaps maybe an audience to watch the show as it slowly forms to become something big and exciting for everyone. So you go off and post numerous flyers and posters and go tell your friends, family, grandparents, teachers oh wait it’s the summer but isn’t there summer school in the mists… Well anyway once all of this is said and done that do all you need to do right? Wrong! Once that is all taken care of a live proportion is need to be put into place right, right so turn on the live equipment and let’s get things started. At least that’s how it went down at the hot and steamy Chain Reaction in Anaheim, California.

Colos-Saal, Aschaffenburg, Germany24th July 2009
Ohrenfeindt
The Aschaffenburg Colos-Saal has always been known for a variegated Alternative music programme. Every week, its stage attracts hundreds of people from the Lower Main area. Last Friday, the Colos-Saal responsible were proud to present a real institution of German Rock coming from the as famous as notorious Hamburg red light district St. Pauli: OHRENFEINDT, consisting of Stefan Lehmann (drums), Dennis Henning (guitar) and Chris Laut (harp, vocals, bass). Founded in 1994, the band has released the three albums ‘Schmutzige Liebe’ (2003), `Rock’n’Roll Sexgott´ (2005) and `Mit Vollgas und Blaulicht´ (2007) up to now. Due to its frequent appearances at biker events, OHRENFEINDT is regarded to be deeply-routed with that scene. http://www.ohrenfeindt.de / http://www.myspace.com/ohrenfeindt

Amphi Festival 2009 Day 1 Rheinparkhalle: Laibach, Feindflug, Agonoize, Marsheaux, Absolute Body Control, Scandy, Xotox, Jäger 90, Auto-Auto
The Rheinparkhalle was standing in the sign of harder electro music on the first festival was. It was even so hard, that the plaster fell from the ceiling during the FEINDFLUG gig. The hall could not be used anymore afterwards for the whole festival for security reasons. It was quite some tough work for the crew to get all the gear from the Rheinparkhalle to the Theater and make the LAIBACH gig happen there… it all took them only three hours, so big compliment for anyone of the team!
