THANX FOR THE GREAT CONCERT !!! but (just a vision) next time i would really prefer a kreidler PARTY instead of "concert" to avoid chairs. your music is sooooo dancable, you act like dj's, so it was a pity that there were rows rows rows of seats like in cinema - incredible silly :-) will you invite some day STAN LAFLEUR again to give his voice and lyrics as a special guest??? i have a remembrance of such an interesting concert in düsseldorf years years years ago... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyGCsU3OUQ4
der PRATER is ne feine location, da freu ich mich drauf!!! :-) gbits ne vorband? fangt ihr pünktlich an? ich bin frühaufsteher, ich meine: frühschläfer, nur ausnahmsweise "nachtmensch" :-) macht der STAN LAFLEUR eigentlich noch manchmal als specialguest bei euch mit oder war das damals ne einmalige sache? es war jedenfalls ziiiiiiemlich klasse...
