Avant-Garde Fiesta in Germany 2005 (PICS)

Jean-Hervé Peron of Faust is putting on a shindig at his house in Schiphorst, near Hamburg, Germany. The festival runs for 3 days from 16-18th September 2005, and is very reasonably priced at EUR40 for the whole weekend if you book in advance (only a little more on the gate). Flights from the UK are very cheap by Ryanair to Lübeck for example, and you'll even get collected from the airport if you book in advance.

Acts playing at the Fiestaval (as it has been dubbed) include: Faust (with JHP and Zappi, playing every night of the event too!), Chris Cutler, Charles Hayward, Ulan Bator, Chris Karrer from Amon Düül II, Ectogram, Permanent Fatal Error, Stella Maris Drone Orchestra and a whole host more from around the world. As this is a show being staged by one of the more flamboyant members of Faust, expect all-around nuttiness, occasional painted nudity and some really amazing music, while Lightning Rod will be smearing the site with his tripped-out pschedelic lightshow.

Important note: It's not a commercial festival, it's a big party, and the entry fee is to cover expenses and suchlike.

So let's have a Barbemeet in Schiphorst for the Equinox - has there been a Barbedeutsche gathering before?

On the cash note, Ryanair are doing some flights from £0.29 each way to Lübeck, as long as you don't mind flying at 6.25 am that is...

I should of course add that's from Stansted... other starting airports may vary in price. Sorry for being London-centric.

I'd pretty much given up on going to this, but Mr Mango's sorted me out with a free lift! Off to Deutschland I go...

"Bad Bwoy, inna Deutschland/Rude bwoy, inna Schiphorst"

Stoatie, just what was it about your Germanic experience that has left you overusing the word "dude"?
It must stop.

Blame Sir Montague Grizzly the Dragontwatter of Schiphorst. He started it all off and it ran out of control from there on in, I'm afraid.

Yes, I succumbed to the dudery too. Sorry. Won't happen again.

Yeah. The dudery was totally bogus.

The Barbarism was(is) pretty overwhelming too... I blame the fire.

The Faust Tractor probably had an influence of some sort too.

Ah, tractors, drums and beer at daybreak. What have we all missed?

Not a picture of me, by the way. But I was there when the pic was taken.
