I have to admit I am not very disappointed that I missed this show. I wonder if I am missing something in the translation??? Found in a the local döner shop tonight.

Escape from the Krank Haus

(and now a slight bit of back-blogging) On my way home from Istanbul, I began to feel like something was not quite right with my throat. By mid-week, I (along with everyone else in Potsdam) was down for the count. On Wednesday, it felt like nobody on the campus was at work. I went home […]

Tangerine Dream on Steroids

Last night I saw Sigur Ros at the Tempodrom in Berlin. A band from Iceland, I was not very familiar with their music. However, after watching this video, I decided it was probably worth going (just in case). The Tempodrom was an interesting place to see a show. I thought I was watching a show […]

Today I am in full recovery mode from a very busy, and very good, weekend. The weekend started out on Thursday night after work with Konni and I going to the Abenteuer Park. It was a lot of fun and very challenging (both muscles and nerves). We made it around three different loops in the […]

A Sunday without Autos — at least for part of the day.
June 3rd, 2008 · Comments Off
On Sunday, I took part in some sort of ‘demonstration.’ I am not sure what the purpose or cause was, but it basically consisted of most all the roads (including autobahns) leading into Berlin were closed to autos and opened up to bikes. According to Paul, the police said there were 25,000 people and the […]
Music convergences

One of the nice things about living in Berlin is the huge amounts of cultural opportunities. Last weekend, Paul and I went to the IMAX theater to watch the new U2 – 3D movie. Not a movie that makes you think a lot, but I was in a mood to listen to loud music, so […]
