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.

Palladium, Cologne, Germany
17th December 2008
INEXTREMO and THE BLACK SHEEPFor a purpose built auditorium, rather than a multi purpose arena, the Palladium is huge, with a vast staff who manage to make sure that there are even minimal queues when leaving and collecting your coat... very impressive.

Dark X-Mas Festival 2008: Kloq, Rotersand, Diary of Dreams, Nitzer Ebb
Our fifth and last Christmas festival took place in the South of Germany, at Augsburg’s Rockfabrik. Like the other evening in Ludwigsburg, the line-up consisted of KLOQ, ROTERSAND, DIARY OF DREAMS and NITZER EBB. Despite being Monday, already several people waited in front of the closed doors to get in. An uncommon arrangement of seats (right, left, and two metres parallel to the stage) awaited us in the venue. That gave a cosy impression and so we nailed down a good spot pretty much at the front.
