Friday night. A bar made of concrete and comfort. A place to live the good times and the bad. To silently stare into a glass of Vodka, Bukowski-style/ to casually laugh at the meaninglessness of it all/ or to enjoy the weekend’s first round with the crowd: That’s

THE TRAGIC TURNS OF LIFE Bar
with Christoph & Philip

Your barkeepers will have kind words and drinks for everyone, music, strange visuals, art. Tragic Turns Of Life – that’s what we live on in our beloved/ bewildered Berlin. But by the bar, there’s our friends to prove that all will be good.

Amy MacDonald presented her new album to a crowd invited by Universal Music in Berlin yesterday. It was a very nice concert. Looks like her new “Hit Single” will be the Song “Spark” watch out for that!

My personal favorite was when Amy came back up on stage to sing  her version of “Dancing in the Dark” a classic by Bruce Springsteen. So if you like girls with guitars and great voices … watch out for her new album!

This is kind of a rare picture. After the early 10am AQ1 Show this swedish model took some time off to relax before  going to the next show. Eventhough it was just two minutes and we used it for a little shoot she seemed quite happy after her powernap!

It must be hard to get up around six or seven in the morning to get  to the first show and then look skinny, pretty and happy. Having seen the backstage entrance cigarettes and coffee seem to help a lot to be skinny, pretty and happy without a propper breakfast in the morning. But what about the shows in the afternoon and evening?

“Hey my name is B.R. and i am German.
The Germns killed many Jews in the past.
What i am about to show you is an exhibition
about the authenticity in our lives.
How authentic is your mother?
How authentic is your country?
How authentic can art be?
Is there something like “authentic” anyway?

Because of theri history the Germans understand authenticity,
the internet knows the meaning of the words as well.
I trust the Germans more than the internet.
So, this is more an exhibition about
bringing back the trust to the people of Germany
than about doing some arty stuff.
If you know what I mean”
