"Ich liebe Vorhänge."
So, I survived the 1st May. I said I would go directly to Potsdam in the afternoon to visit the city, but I ended up going to Kreuzberg first 'cause I was curious (and was craving a burrito). The Oranienstraße was full of people, with little stands selling grilled food and lots of stages with all sort of music, from punk rock to reggae to techno. I went away short before 6 PM and people just kept coming. Too bad there were problems later and a policeman got wounded. But I was already in Potsdam when that happened. I only saw the Park and Schloß Sanssouci, but, man, they're amazing. I'll definitely bring my parents there when they come to visit. That is, in less than 3 weeks! :O
The Abwärts concert was fun as usual, I love the music, but it was pretty much identical to the one in Berlin last year. I met Eline and Steffi totally by chance at the S-Bahn station and we went to the venue together. The club was almost empty and the first row consisted of... well, children, I think the average age was 14-15? Anyway, they seemed to have the time of their life, jumping and pogoing and generally having a lot of fun. No screaming Rod fangirls, thank God. After the concert I even caught a glance of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, aka Gary. It think half of the audience was on the guestlist, by the way. :P Anyway, all in all, it was a good concert.
Here a moment from the gig: Rod needed a bit of privacy.
Zitat Rod: "Ich liebe Vorhänge." XD
On Sunday I went to Spandau, wandered a bit around the Altstadt (it's like being in a totally different town) and then visited the Zitadelle. I had already been there in 2004 (WTF 6 YEARS AGO!?) for the Zauberfestival, but yesterday it was totally empty and I could take dozens of pictures. At the entrance an old man asked me if I wanted to go on top of the tower and as I told him that I didn't really have much time, I thought "He reminds me of someone..." And then it clicked: he looked just like Herr Wagner in Richy Guitar! Even the voice sounded the same. But it couldn't be him, the film was shot 25 years ago, even if he is still alive, he must have changed a bit. Right? ¬_¬
And the 30 days music meme. Man, I'm already skipping days...
30 days music meme
Day 01. Your favourite song
"Heroes", David Bowie
Day 02. Your least favourite song
"Ad ogni costo", Vasco Rossi.
Day 03: A song that makes you happy
"Friday I'm in love", The Cure. The video is so absurd, I can't help but grin like an idiot whenever I watch it; and the song always brings back a lot of happy memories. :)
Day 04: A song that makes you sad
"Beautiful", Christina Aguilera. This song and a few others used to make me terribly sad, but not anymore. I can't think of any song that makes me sad at the moment, so I'll just use this one.
Day 05: A song that reminds you of someone
Day 06: A song that reminds you of somewhere
Day 07: A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 08: A song that you know all the words to
Day 09: A song that you can dance to
Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 11: A song from your favorite band
Day 12: A song from a band you hate
Day 13: A song that is a guilty pleasure
Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to love
Day 15 - A song that describes you
Day 16 - A song that you used to love but now hate
Day 17 - A song that you hear often on the radio
Day 18 - A song that you wish you heard on the radio
Day 19 - A song from your favorite album
Day 20 - A song that you listen to when you’re angry
Day 21 - A song that you listen to when you’re happy
Day 22 - A song that you listen to when you’re sad

Why did that actually make me laugh out loud for real? XD

Potsdam is so gorgeous! I wandered all around there one day. And I really like Spandau too. The Zitadelle is cool.
"Friday I'm in love" is probably my favorite Cure song, but I've never seen the video before! Yay!
