Another sleepless night, including nice music and nice people.
"Altstadtzauber" means something like "old city magic" and is some kind of festival here
with more or less local bands (there were 52 bands over 2 days this year),
a flea market (got a pair of AKG K240 for 5€) and some other stuff.
Two of three bands I listened to yesterday were quite good, one was outstanding.
They're called "Free to Dream" and consist of 5 spanish and one austrian guy,
2 Guitars, a bass, a drum, an opera-voice and a lot of key instruments, like a Hammond B3,
a Minimoog and so on.
The singers' voice is great and he has a good stage pressence,
the skills of the guy on the keys are outstanding and the others also know what thei're doing.
They played some covers like "hush" from deep purple and a lot of own songs
which were too complex for most of the audiance maybe, but sounded just great.
I likely get the chance to assist the next record of this band and the "Peter Mayr Project" which
is another band (Acid Jazz and the like if i kept that correctly) of the guy on the keys, Peter Mayr.
He's really a king on the keys, loves the B3 and the Minimoog and makes crazy great music.
I hope that I can do something with him, but I think that my stuff will be like childplay compared to his music.
