and off we go again to a happy - fire .striped T-Shirt contest. This time in neat blue and white, just suitable to our famous bavarian sky, which unfortunately today is rather grey than blue and white. Oh well, I don't really think, one has got to do with the other. But the Haute Couture of In Extremo puts up some levels, like their music. And last one has nothing to do with stripes in white and blue, but therefore with lots of sparkling flames. 
.
And that one again, I  mean the fire magic ain't to big thanks to munich's authorithies, who are even anxious , that a candle could burn down a whole castle. So forget about a long discussion, you won't change anything, because of their stuborness.
Jesus wept, let's don't give a damn about huge fireworks and pyroshows, and just let's go for those white and blue striped T-Shirts, a few pretty boys and of course the music. 

At least this time I have the straight comparison between the last show, which had been my very first one, and this concert of the Chippendales of Middle Age Rock. The first stint was six months ago, and I still remember it very well (-not just because of the music Just right for me - old woman, who's grey cells are not that fresh anymore, but still quite fit for my age. 

And let's be honest, I have no impression so far, that anything has changed within the post antique Rock'n'Roll choreography since last December. Comparing the setlists from then and now, everything is the same exept two tracks, which have been exchanged. Yeah okay, there's gotta be at least a little bit of a change...

The magic starts once again with the man in black and his beautiful solo prologe, which is echoed by aprox. 4.000 throats. This devotion does not lead from a one time experience, because most of the fans here, have experienced their heroes at least a dozen times or even more. 
Unfortunately tonight the photographic space of time at this backpipe chamber concert is restricted to a lenght of only two songs. Who the hell knows why. . Fact is, that my lense only gets the visual aspect of  a black coat and blue-white stripy t-shirts and not a partly striptease. That one starts, after the battle in the photopit is finished. Intention or Coincident?? Or is this rather due to caring about us because of the fire sparkle of this mini excess? Alright, so then, there will be no visual sexy frame to this epilog, but rather decent image care in blue and white strip.....

Okay, okay finito, before I become silly. Let the music do the talking - And that one consists almost 1 : 1  of the same chapters like last December, like I mentioned before. But maybe I'm suffering a fata morgana. Fact is, that the band enthusiasm is going down in the cellar, when the technical break down comes along. In the beginning not even realizing up on stage, and down in the audiance we don't hear anything anymore, this broken pipe develops into a 10 minute disaster.

Thanks god, also the eternity finds an end, and the poor souls of technicians get the thing back going onto a normal decibel level. One more bonus point for our friends on stage, who apparently haven't lost their good mood because of the sound problems. You call this proffessionallity, and they just got around the supergau, whereby it's definately not the fault of the band up there. This again leads into a big applause for the victory above the technique. Peace again inbetween all those fans and friends of dark shades and black colour. Very practical, variable and practically to combinate with everything, most of all with black. I for my part, prefer rather those blue and white stripey..... yeah you know what I mean....don't ya'?!

In any case all these 4.000 something friends of middle age back pipe culture are sending their signals of 100 percent devotion. Wauw, I'm sure, some rockbands would give a lot for receiving this affection. the generell vibe has reached the boiling point and spreads out in every 442,5 directions with the speed of sound. 

And yes, this question in the beginning - "how are your"? is more or less a waste. But let's take it as a nice polite phrase. Because of course they do well down there, when their German Top Idols are up there presenting them all their musical diamonds. One joker is followed by another ace of heart and is forming a royal flash. 
Anyway, victory belongs to In Extremo, although to me they do not seem that energetic like last time in December. Maybe a bit tired from intense touring or just got up with the wrong leg first tonight - who knows. Never mind, because most of those black foot indians in the audiance do not feel my way,- so what?!

However, the band has won again and one more time. Whether with 'Spiellmanns Spruch', who reflects in 'Vollmond' on the 'Horizont', or is it just those blue white striped sexy t-shirts. And that' why we'll continue to love you - here in Bavaria, in Mexico, or Russia and on the edge of the milkyway and in eternity amen.... 
But all this please in blue....and...))))))))))  http://www.inextremo.de/
