A-ha... Oh, yeah...

The Abwärts concert last night was great! The SO36 is such a great location (ah, the memories, I saw my first Ärzte gig there.)

It was my second Abwärts gig and it was just like I remembered: loud and rocking. I got there around 8 PM (it takes me less than 20 minutes to get there :P) and as I was waiting to get in I heard people talking in Italian and trying to understand what Abwärts was ("Is it, like, a band or something?" lol) I turned around and told them that, yes, that's an "electro-punk band" and I think I convinced at least one of them, because I saw him in the audience later. XD

The opening act, Amplify, wasn't bad, but man, they were so... young. When I saw them I thought "They are... children!" *feels old*

Before the concert I met black_plec and another girl I know from MySpace, then achtanablah arrived and, during the Amplify show, killer_ameise and Melina. I meet more people here than in Milan. XD

Rod was fucking HOT as usual and really seemed to have a damn good time. Want proof of that?


<333 ♥♥♥

More pictures here. They don't look very good, I didn't put much effort in them, I just wanted to enjoy the show. :P

Personal highlights of the night: Rod singing "Kentucky Fried Chicken in a Pizza Hut, Mc Donald's, Mc Donald's" (as seen in this short video, around 00:19 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0IZFtXCgvw ) and then singing... Körperzellenrock! XD My God, that's such a running gag between flaschengeist and me, I had to write her an SMS after the concert to tell her. I couldn't catch the moment, but I have this short video as evidence:

Also, there's something so damn sexy about Rod singing "A-ha... Oh, yeah..." It's the way he draws out the "yeaaah"... *dies a little inside*

Almut slept over at my place and took the train back this morning, it'll take her almost 7 hours to get home, poor thing...

And next Friday... BELA B! Yeah, I gave in and got a ticket to Dresden. I couldn't possibly wait until the 6th December, I'm so weak. :P

PS Also, lo and behold my brand new icon. The Hand of God indeed...

EDIT: Just remembered a detail: the guy wearing the fez you can see in one of the pictures brought shots to everyone and when Rod knocked down his, he almost bent in two backwards. I had to think of that scene in the Schattenreich DVD when they're practicing martial arts. All right, it wasn't so extreme, but it was fun to watch nonetheless. Still pretty flexible for a middle-aged man. :P
