Während ein Kater ja seine Daseinsberechtigung hat gibt es einfach die Momente im Leben, wo man trotzdem über die Stränge schlägt. Um am nächsten Tag nicht in den Seilen zu hängen haben wir diesmal eine Geschenkidee gegen Kater. Auch gut geeignet, um dezent auf übermäßigen Alkoholkonsum hinzuweisen…

Heute wurden mir dem Auto echt alles geboten. Auf dem Weg ins Moor abtrocknende Wege, Nur vereinzelt noch kleine Pfützen. Im Moor sehr geile Matschstellen. Auf der Geländefahrstrecke ebenfalls alles dabei. Schotterpiste. Anspruchsvolle Stellen was das Fahren angeht. Staubtrockene, sandige Abschnitte. Und auch schlammige Abschnitte mit teilweise tiefen Wasserlöchern. Ich werde beide Orte auf jeden Fall wieder besuchen. Bei schwülen 30°C war es zwar auch extrem geil in den Gummistiefeln. Besonders weil es auch Staub gab. Aber wenn es so richtig matschig wird, ist es auch geil im Moor und auf der Geländestrecke. Ich liebe beides.
achtung: dieses plakat entspricht NICHT meiner politischen meinung / stimme. ich waehle weder oekofaschisten noch linksfaschisten oder rechtsfaschisten, da diese meiner meinung nach ALLE in die tonne gehoeren. ;-)
dieses plakat soll lediglich sagen: ich finde es idiotisch, dass ALLE nur von "DEM ATOM" reden.. die leute demonstrieren gegen "DAS ATOM" und somit gegen sich selber und gegen das ganze universum.
andere sind da differenzierter und demonstrieren gegen ATOMKRAFT - und haben trotzdem solarzellen auf dem dach und geniessen die sonne bis zum sonnenbrand, weil sie auch nur ueber gefaehrliches halbwissen verfuegen.
einige wenige haben es verstanden und demonstrieren gegen kernfissonsreaktoren... doch auch sie denken nicht zu ende. was denn dann? kohlekraftwerke? noch schlimmer. der abfall, die asche, ist ebenfalls radioaktiv; noch dazu entsteht gefaehrliches CO2.
also: weg mit atomkraftwerken UND kohlekraftwerken?! theoretisch ein guter ansatz: praktisch bei dem energiehunger der deutschen aber nicht umsetzbar. das wuerde nur dazu fuehren, dass wir strom aus dem ausland - z.b. frankreich - kaufen muessten - auch sog. "ATOMSTROM". wir haetten also genau das gleiche, nur zu einem hoeheren preis. OHNE MICH.
baut effiziente windkraftwerke etc., dann koennen wir nochmal darueber reden. bis dahin bin ich FUER (weitere) kernfissionsreaktoren und GEGEN kohlekraftwerke... und gegen oekofaschisten.
in english:
WARNING: this poster does NOT resemble my political opinions / vote.
this poster is just here to say: i find people dumb who demonstrate against "THE ATOM" and thus against themselves and the whole universe.
others are more differentiated and demonstrate against nuclear power - yet they have solar cells on their roof and enjoy the sun until sunburn, because they have insufficient knowledge, too.
some people again are aware of the facts and demonstrate against nuclear fission reactors; but also, they do not think twice. coal power plants are even worse, as they produce radioactive waste as well - and dangerous CO2. so, shall we shut off nuclear power plants AND coal power plants? a good idea - but just in theory. we would no longer be able to satisfy our hunger for electricity then; and that'd lead to us buying power from e.g. france - also NUCLEAR power. so, we'd have the same shit but for a much higher price. COUNT ME OUT!
build efficient wind power plants etc., then raise your voice again. until then, i am PRO (new) fission reactors and AGAINST coal power plants. and against eco-fascists...
geil , im zustand wie man sich erinnert . sagenhafte 1100ccm,50ps . mein erster wagen war 'n 127er - dat ding hier als schrägheck :o)) !

Life and career
Wolf was born in the Bronx, New York. He planned a career as an artist, but he got a job in the late 1960s as a disc jockey on then-cutting edge Boston FM radio station WBCN and began exploring his interest in blues and rhythm and blues music, giving himself the nickname "the Wolfa Goofa", sometimes expanded to "the Wolfa Goofa with the Green Teeth" (as mentioned in the intro to "Must of Got Lost" on the Blow Your Face Out album). Later as solo artist he called himself Woofa Goofa Mama Toofa. He formed a group called the Hallucinations who performed with The Velvet Underground, Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker, and Sun Ra. He then saw the J. Geils Blues Band in concert and quickly joined. He was the vocalist and frontman, and often acted as a sort of manager. Wolf was known for his charismatic stage antics of fast-talking quips and "pole-vaulting" with the microphone stand. He and keyboard player Seth Justman were responsible for most of the songwriting. Creative differences followed their Freeze-Frame album, causing the J. Geils Band and Peter Wolf to part ways in 1983.

Wolf became a solo artist for the next 15 years, but in 1999 the J. Geils Band reunited for several appearances, with Wolf resuming his duties as lead vocalist. They separated again, and Wolf began touring once more, as a solo act.
Wolf's first solo record, Lights Out (1984) was produced by Michael Jonzun of the Jonzun Crew, features Adrian Belew, and has a somewhat funky, electro sound. The eponymous single became a hit single the same year, peaking at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100. He recorded many duets with the likes of Aretha Franklin, Little Milton, John Lee Hooker, Don Covay, and Wilson Pickett to name just a few.
Long Line was co-produced with two musician friends, Johnny A. and a Bob Dylan backup band member, Stu Kimball. Tim Archibald (Bass) and Brian Maes (keys and backing vocals) who are both members of "Ernie And The Automatics", played on the record and Toured in support of "Long Line." His next two solo albums, Fool's Parade and Sleepless (the latter featuring guest appearances from Mick Jagger and Keith Richards), were both highly praised by Jann Wenner in Rolling Stone, receiving four-and-a-half and five stars, respectively. Sleepless (2002) was noted as one of the 500 greatest albums of all time in Rolling Stone issue 937. He has performed on stage with such diverse people as Bruce Springsteen and Phil Lesh.
Wolf toured in 2008 with Kid Rock and Rev. Run on The Rock N Roll Revival Tour. He performed "Love Stinks" solo with Kid Rock's band. Then he joined Kid Rock for "Ain't Too Proud to Beg", "Musta Got Lost", "Centerfold" (from the J. Geils album Freeze Frame) and "For What It's Worth".
The J. Geils Band re-united for a series of shows in 2009, including opening night at the Boston House of Blues.
Wolf's 2010 album Midnight Souvenirs won Album of the Year at the Boston Music Awards.[2][3]

Session Americana - www.sessionamericana.com
This ad hoc acoustic supergroup started around a table at a small pub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Ry Cavanaugh, Billy Conway, Sean Staples, Dinty Child, Jim Fitting and other friends gathered to swap songs and stories. Their lively performances and inspired versions of tunes from the dusty backroads of America's past were such a hit with fans that they decided to take their musical conversation into the studio. The two-CD debut Tabletop People ups the ante with stellar appearances by folksinger Rose Polenzani, Twinemen's Laurie Sargent, Dennis Brennan, Asa Brebner, Merrie Amsterburg, Dan Kellar, Presidents of the United States' Chris Ballew, Jabe Beyer, Tim Gearon and other luminaries. And the 18 gritty, funny, soulful performances included span a gamut of emotions and tastes that should please both adult and younger listeners.
"Genius ... Jaw-dropping vocals ... Session Americana is blessed in this regard:...musicianship that sets the standard for the genre in Boston
and vocals that do the same"
— Performer Magazine
Session Americana sit tightly around a small cafe table, ambient mics tuned to catch the whole sound of the voices and instruments. A suit-case drum kit, an old electric bass, a bunch of acoustic instruments, a field organ: This format feels very theatrical and though the musicians face each other, the audience feels drawn into the circle by the warmth, joy and camaraderie that emanate outwards by the all star cast of characters seated around the table. What keeps you coming back show after show is the same thing that any audience member longs for, great songs performed by a great band. The six core members of the band have brought enviable careers worth of experience to the “table”, featuring (current and former) members of Treat Her Right, Patty Griffin, Lori McKenna, The The, Dennis Brennan, Kris Delmhorst. The group has grown from a rag tag jam at a local pub to a regional institution, playing gigs from church coee houses to urban nightclubs to regional festival tents to large halls.
Band: Ry Cavanaugh, Billy Beard, Dinty Child, Jim Fitting, Sean Staples and Jon Bistline.

They come in may shapes and colors, the Stekker people.
Taken @ Stekkerfest. To dub Stekkerfest 'a lovely festival' would be an understatement. How do they find so many cute and friendly people is beyond me. This years edition saw Ripperton, Jimpster and Ceephax Acid Crew on the bill. But it was the crowd that made Stekkerfest stand out.

The J. Geils Band (English pronunciation: /gaɪlz/) is an American rock band formed in 1967 in Worcester, Massachusetts best known for their 1981 single, "Centerfold" which charted #1 in the U.S. in early 1982. The band played R&B-influenced blues-rock in the 1970s before moving towards a more pop-influenced sound in the 1980s. Since their initial break-up in 1983, the band has reunited several times.
The J. Geils Band first received FM radio airplay with the live single "First I Look at the Purse". They then began to get AM radio airplay as well with a series of several hit singles in the 1970s, the most successful of which were "Looking for a Love" (1971), "Give it to Me" (1973), a cover version of The Showstoppers' "Ain't Nothin' But a Houseparty" (1973) and "Must of Got Lost" (1974). Later in the 1970s, the band signed with EMI America Records.
