Last Saturday I saw Franz de Byl giving a concert in a pub in Reinickendorf. A place where planes continuously thunder in to touch down at Tegel airport. The audience consisted of maybe eight people. Met a real friendly Kriminalhauptkommissar featuring a Harley Davidson shirt and mind. What with the rock gang trouble in Berlin right now I thought that to be quite funny. But back to the music: I was surprised how well the band played. And how old the guys were. But then again, those who were in their twenties in 1968 are now about sixty plus. There you have it. Rock and blues might be dead in a few years in the truest sense of the term. Started to think that by the time I get to a retirement home, the afternoon teas might be techno parties or some such. Not a bad outlook, after all. But as long as it lasts, I’m all for guitars.
Let’s dope the pope, Franz de Byl
