what happened so far:

December
I got myself a new high score in 2005: 43 shows, incl. 31 with Doc Schoko. The hardest working band I ever had! More statistics? I'd like to thank everyone I was lucky enough to play music with last year. You'd be surprised to know how much that means to me.

So, here's the December news: 3 more SCHOKO shows, the first shows organised by our new agency and also the first as a quartet. Uwe Jahnke of Fehlfarben and S.Y.P.H. fame joined us on lead guitar. If this band was pretty good before, we're heading for stellar now. No kidding. No nonsense Kraut-Punk with passionate vocals, a strong and flexible rhythm section, and a wall of guitars (Uwe alone counting for at least 5). What great fun we had!

Berlin's Magnet Club is known internationally as a good live space with a killer sound engineer (thanks, Peter!). The live sound easily made up for the lack of audience. Only 30+ friends enjoyed the best show we played in 2005 (the quiet, quasi acoustic gig at Hasenschaukel in Hamburg remains my favourite though, but there were other things involved than music) and partied with us until the club manager cut down the beer supply.

Uwe's first gig with the new band line-up was up-lifting, and his pal Jupp took the enthusiasm on the road with the band. Jupp is a cool and max. reliable professional driver and a great pal, who brought an amazing VW to take us through Sachsen. The interior resembled a private jet, and in fact the only thing that reminded me I'm still in a car was that there was instruments in the back and not a stewardess with a choice of refreshments.

Both Leipzig and Chemnitz were good shows, Chemnitz perhaps the better one, because we had to cut down the aggression a little, due to the fact that Doc's voice had suffered from the noise we had made in Leipzig. Played more relaxed the program sounded a lot like CAN. Listening to Future Days on the bus might have helped... But it was fun all the way. Thanks to Tim and Karsten! Chemnitz also provided the best hotel we had so far.

So what can you expect in 2006? Many more live shows and even better playing! Far from getting stuck in sheer routine we become more and more a real musical unit. We really learned to play live together by doing exactly that. And that's an experience I'd always wanted to share with my pals The Furthurs and Leatherette while still in Köln. Now I'm in a new town, in a new band and I'm happy I can do what I'm doing. Er, I'm about to want to thank the members of the academy, too, so I'd rather shut up...

By the way: "Sei still", our cover version of the MONKS' "Shut Up" will be the flipside of the new DOC SCHOKO 7"! This will get me another mark on my Vic Firth 5AJ! You can buy the new single directly from Louisville Records or in your local store by the end of January!.

Conzert No.43 took place at the lovely Zentrale Randlage. And it turned out my best solo performance of the year! 90 minutes of music, bad jokes, unintentional slapstick and the great Bernhard Christian on violin as guest star! Fantastic live sound! Thank you, Xenia and René!

The place was near empty when I started (winter finally had Berlin in its grip), but half-way through the program I had another look and the club had filled up. Strange how there's always Swedes in the audience when I manage to give a more than okay performance. The Swedes were also the first to buy the home-made CDs I offered that night. Thanks! But without doubt everybody in the room had great fun - those hardcore ballads I play are much easier to swallow when there's a little joke in between. Being totally relaxed in a friendly atmosphere probably helped a lot, too.

I played all of my newer songs and a wild mix of covers. Songs by Roxy Music (2), The Who, Frank Sinatra, The Hollies, The Walker Brothers, Gram Parsons and some more didn't sound out of place at all. The less when accompanied by Bernhard's violin, just as if we had been doing this for years already (instead of for the first time). You guess it - I needed to celebrate this THOROUGHLY. How this infected my immune system, made my way back home quite an adventure and knocked me out over new year's eve is another story... May I see you all alive and well in 2006!

November
DOC SCHOKO at TRANSPORTERRAUM studio with Moses Schneider! We recorded a MONKS cover for a tribute compilation that'll help to finance Dietmar Post's gorgeous film about one of the best bands of the 60s. I'm really proud of the results of our studio efforts. Moses made two quite different mixes (full version and an edit). Like the end of the psychedelic era never happened! Harmony vocals! Pure ecstasy! The only other band who already sent in their contribution to the compilation are: The Fall! Hi Elli!

Somewhat less successful was the LEELOO KOBAYASHI show in Halle, which should have been my good-bye to the band project. Mr. Thein told me the laptop power supply broke after the soundcheck and there was no chance to fix it. Bad luck. No show. While talking this and other things over on the phone we decided, that we'd miss out too much fun while working separately and thus happily made plans for future collaborations. I'll keep you informed! Maybe you should read this and finally get the LEELOO album! Or the 12" remix? There you go!

November went by as it's supposed to - dull and depressing, but with a few good live shows, for instance the LOCAS IN LOVE. If their new record turns out half as tight as they're live now it'll be just wonderful! Also big fun: THE NOTHINGS and TRASH-CATS at the Pfefferbank. While I'm talking of shows I've seen: MARIA TAYLOR was beautiful but her band was boring, MARK KOZELEK was pure magic, SENDER and KOLKHORST (hey there, guys!) were great!

October
What a gorgeous and golden October that was! I remember how I instantly fell in love with old West-Berlin in autumn 1986. Sure, I was a young and romantic guy then, but really, the October sun does something special to people here. I played 5 more shows last month and my personal live highscore - 42 shows in 2003 - is already within reach.

Yours punkrock heroes DOC SCHOKO played Berlin twice, on Oct. first and sixth. Club 103 had a bunch of DJs, several live acts, a gourmet chef for the catering and - I liked it. Not all bigger party events suck. Also, this was a real top-of-the-line show. We had learned a brand new song while in Austria - Oktopus im Pentagramm - and couldn't wait to play it for our pals at home. The Louisville folks and some more friends were in the audience (hi, Claudia!), and even the dozens of Berlin rich kids in the audience seemed to like what we did. Oktopus is a 5/4 funkrock with Doc ranting about spiritual essentials and being fucked-up. You'll like it, too.

Much more intimate was the show at Schokoladen Mitte. Less people, less noise, more pub rock. My cup of beer. Some old friends from Cologne in the audience. Great sound engineer! This is a very good place for live music. I could have seen it much earlier in life, if the FURTHURS CD presentation had actually happenend back in 1997. And now the landlord wants to close the thing down. See their homepage to find out if you can help.

My drum kit stayed over night, the next job was not too far away: "Heaven to Heaven", Artus Unival's mixed-media -performance at the Glaskasten in Wedding. I was happy to be back with the COSMIC SOUND CONCEPT once more, for the show in June was a great experience. Olli, one of the two other drummers that night, was so friendly to pick my instrument up with his microbus. The Glaskasten is a multifunctional event room owned by the city of Berlin, perhaps a former squat, in the middle of cultural wasteland. Wedding is a poor area, and once you can convince the mayor, that your concepts of culture better the whole quarter, you can make a living and have a real budget. Means, the place looked out of place posh, but was very nice. Maybe they should invest some more in a reliable and smart technician.

COSMIC SOUND SYSTEM was 15 people on stage that night (including dancer Susi), of course it took a while to make the band sound good. I'd never played with 2 other drummers, but we got going from the spot, hey IT WAS FUNKY! The soundcheck already made me look forward to the show.

Which turned out a little different than the original concept Artus had given to us. The whole thing should have been a cycle of 13 improvisations about life from birth to death with all that matters in between. The music got carried away while it was created (dancer Susi didn't like that too much), I wonder if anybody could still tell where we were concept-wise. But: it was pretty cool all the way, maybe a little too carefully played sometimes. We played about 2 hours and didn't even notice it, the audience danced to it and even the recordings sound good.

Next was a weekend without live music, more construction work at home, until it was time to sing some extreme ballads at lovely ESCHLORAQUE. Host DJ Lobotomy got everybody in the mood, and then it was time to laugh and cry in your beer. I learned two things that night:
1. NEVER AGAIN leave house without a DI-box of my own. Miking the acoustic guitar up needs a master technician and a stone cool performer. Both weren't in the house that night.
2. Hey, this ballad thing works! There were people in the audience who laughed at my jokes, digested the sadness of the music AND asked for the right songs (can you play any Walker Brothers?). Right on! Thanks to Bernhard for saving what was possible soundwise.

More construction work until my calendar screemed: DOC SCHOKO in Dresden! The Scheune is a renowned and respected live club - good people, good food, good soundcheck and a lovingly executed rider (no Beck's) should have been enough reasons to play a mighty good show, but somehow we didn't. Or maybe we did, but we didn't like it that much.

This sounds much more melodramatic than it really is. Some songs, Ohnmacht most of all, were as convincing as ever, if not better. Anyway: our fellow performers in Dresden, Finn, Hund am Strand and special guest star Flo Fernandez had no problems at all that night, perhaps because most of the lovely audience had shown up for them. Finn in particular were great, singer Patrick is brilliant, much better live than on records, if you ask me. He sings loud and clear and gets all them damn notes I tend to miss when I pull out all the stops. I already hear us singing "You've lost that loving feeling" together. Patrick, can you hear it, too?

P.S.: Bob Dylan at the Arena in Treptow was great!

September
My first solo gig after almost half a year saw me back at Kap Arkona on one of the last hot summer evenings. You guess it: pubs aren't too crowded in summer when there's no air condition. But the few people who listened got a heart-felt reading of the following titles:
The air that I breathe (Hollies)
Crimson and clover (Tommy James & The Shondells)
You've lost that loving feeling (Righteous Brothers)
The sun ain't gonna shine anymore (Walker Brothers)
While there's still something (KK)
Cowboy song (Phil Lynott / William Butler Yeats)
Lonely streets (KK)
In the wee small hours of the morning (Dave Mann / Bob Hilliard)
The show got me some great remarks afterwards. "You look like a dentist, but you sing like an angel. Do you have a girl-friend who can appreciate that you are so sensitive?" No, I didn't go home with her.

The SCHOKO gang played Berlin twice this month. German and Turkish TV Station TD1 invited us to do a short set in their "blend tv" music program. Very friendly people, strange production routines, if you're not a media insider. I liked that a lot.

Playing at the Popkomm convention isn't much fun normally, but the Louisville Records birthday party at Festsaal Kreuzberg wasn't anywhere close to bad vibes. We were the second act (out of 5) that night and played a Krautrock-oriented set. Of course it rocked nevertheless. It was very interesting to meet all the other Louisville acts for the first time. A shame I couldn't see and hear all of them on stage, too. Florian Horwath's and Oliver Welter's performances were quite impressive, the Puppetmastaz did an interview backstage, that was just hilarious. The whole bunch of Pop Stars in waiting partied until morning, danced to DJ Lobotomy's records and eventually went somewhere else to have some last drinks. God knows where that was, I can't remember.

Quite memorable in comparison was the short trip to Austria, where DOC SCHOKO played three shows, Vienna, Graz and Innsbruck. The original plan had been to take the whole Louisville package on the road, but the show at WUK in Vienna got cancelled because there was some other major concert event on the same day. So it was just us and Florian Horwath's band (who was on tour anyway) who went to Vienna to play the famous but much smaller Chelsea club. Very good sound engineer there!

The best show was Graz though, where we played at a multi-media art exhibition finissage. The thing was called Girl TV and the curator was a pal from Hamburg, whose tape label "Einlegen" had published Dominik's solo project The Island in 2004. What really made the difference was the fact, that the whole thing was intimate, so we didn't need a huge PA system. Media artists are smart people, and so we also got the whole show on video. You can watch it or download it here.

The Innsbruck show had a big budget, but some major downers. FM4 radio does parties with new bands on a regular basis, and they were so gentle to invite us over. They actually drove us all the way to Innsbruck, which was very nice. The food was great, too. And the other band TNT JACKSON were darlings. Also there was a great and funny conjurer from Hamburg, Mr. Manuel Muerte, with his more than lovely assistent, Ms. Busoni, who were both in the brilliant Hamburg beat band THE MOBYLETTES a while ago. But the media professionals who were supposed to organize the event were something else. Nobody except Chris, the brave technician, seemed to know what was going on. The communication was, er, difficult.

The DOC SCHOKO band couldn't have been more out of place there among hordes of ski jet set youth in mommy's pearls and daddy's wallets. It didn't work at all for most of the show, until finally Doc started to scream at the audience. That made an impression. The room was already pretty empty by then, but most people who were still there started dancing. Strange. The last few songs of the show were great. The rest of the evening was band discussions, too much booze and bad moods. Most of what we discussed that night was plain stupid, but what was good about it was the passion and sincerity in our efforts to make better music together. What really counts is that the whole Austria trip was full of socially and spiritually rewarding situations. We met some great people. Special thanks to Rainer and Sandra!

July & August
Summer didn't only bring another "0" to my collection of birthdays, but also my first real German tour. As some of you readers out there will probably remember, I've been on the road before with a couple of bands and had some wild trips, but 16 shows in 9 days? Nope. Well, now I did it. Even the rehearsals and office tasks went smoothly until, on July 29th it was time for the Doc Schoko Mobiltour

After 2 weeks of practise and a test gig at my place we went on the road. Doc and me took the plane to Cologne, while Domink and our great new friend and tour manager Oliver moved our instruments there by car. Our tour bus, an old VW microbus called "Manati" looked a little ragged at first sight, but proved soon enough that she's the maximally reliable rolling hotel her owners promised.

The tour start in Cologne was most promising, we met many old friends and added a bottle of SYPH ( Slowenian Slivovice, personally imported by Mr. Harry Rag) to the medicine cabinet on the bus, that already held the goods bought at the duty-free shop. While we played NORMAL record store, we first encountered a golden rule for touring bands in record shops: avoid the really good ones, cause that's where you're gonna leave all your money. But, you know, I had to have that John Cale album. Maybe that's why I look a little bedazzled. Of course Yvonne (the reigning queen of Louisville Records and our booker) got us only really good record stores to play...

My birthday included 3 shows (me being support act at the BLUE SHELL) and Rock'n'Roll lifestyle galore, surely one of the nicer birthdays I can still remember. Thank god, we had a day off after that and took our mighty hang-over to the Sauerland.

Finally we were on the bus. I even played drums inside the bus once (at Iserlohn), while Doc and Dominik played in front of CASH-BOX record store. More friends and family in the audience, among others Grandma Schoko. The smart booker at HirschQ club in Dortmund got us locals Colt45 as support act, which turned out to be a very good idea. They rocked and made it easy for us to blast the place into pieces afterwards. Also, the Dortmunders seemed to know quite a lot about chocolate.

Another mighty hang-over and no sleep. But we had to go to Munich, so what the hell. Manati made the distance in world record time and still went comfortably. I still wonder how Oliver did it. Wonderful sunnymoon record store saw an extremely quiet show and offered a lovely atmosphere that was most inspiring. Sure enough, we bought some records. Though announced we couldn't play Resonanz Schallplatten, too, but bought some more rare vinyl there. The X-Cess-Bar got a medium quiet show, due to a previous visit of the cops we had to cut down the energy a little, but the crowd nevertheless partied like there was no tomorrow. Munich was very, very friendly to us. Great people.

And on we went to Stuttgart. On the way Doc did yet another interview and played an acoustic set in Ulm, while I got mighty sentimental over those southern hills. Loads of sweet memories, or frankly: bad fucking blues. 2 warm meals and the most beautiful club I've seen since the Continental's or the Arlene Grocery kinda cured me, meeting my old friend Andreas there finally put me back into party mode. We played one of our best shows in front of a loving crowd. This could have gone on forever, or actually, it did. Thank you kindly, Monsieur Mo-Rio!

More Autobahn with no sleep. It takes ages to get to Frankfurt where we play Pro Vinyl record store. Thank god I don't collect old dancefloor 12", this shop would have killed me. Very friendly people and more chocolate experiences. Though we already had our share of driving through heavy traffic, on we went to Hamburg. Manati's soothing qualities (plus an occasional refreshment) somehow made the 500+ kilometers disappear. Hamburg's Fundbureau was not amused when we arrived 2 hours late. They paid us back with a mighty good stage sound. Small crowd, good show, warm beer. And our first hotel, the Kogge. I consider this a personal gift, for this was the place where I wrote one of my best songs. I was back to Singapore for one night.

Hamburg likes its nights long and its weather rainy. I got myself a new drum chair, the record shopping tour we had planned the night before got cancelled due to the bad weather. Rain was still a problem during the afternoon gig at "Rekord Store", but I got me a consolation price for the necessary cleaning job on my drum kit. Yes, another record...

Which brings me to the best show of the tour (the band is kinda split over this subject, but for me it was one of the best concerts I've ever played), another pretty quiet performance at the lovely Hasenschaukel. We dedicate the evening to the memory of our friend David Leder, who lived just a few steps down the street before he rode his horse away to the eternal hunting-ground. May you rest in piece, brother! That night we found a place to sleep at some friends' place.

All too soon it was time to go home. Ornette Coleman might have made an orchestral album about the spectacular skies of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, I can only offer you this picture. Bizarre weather there!

Back in Berlin and 4 shows ahead on what was left of the day! Vopo Records was fun. The place was packed and everybody enjoyed what we did, including the band. The Coretex Records show had to stop after 5 minutes, heavy rain and less than flexible regulars made this the only real fuck-up of the tour. The first evening show at Enzian made all bad moods go away. This is such a great little place. Doc says this was the best show of them all. Many friends in the audience, great atmosphere. The 8mm Bar was even more crowded but much less friendly, but we made a little money and sold many records. Musically this was extremely good, too.

Very clever to take Manati to the place of the last tour date before having a nap. About 4 or 5 in the morning, we finally found some sleep. I had my one and only night on the bus, the way home to Neukölln was too much of a task. When I woke up, the Mauerpark flea market was already humming, the sun was shining and I had a mighty headache. Although Doc had almost lost his voice by then, the last tour gig became another highlight. You might have guessed it: they sell records at flea markets, and for whatever cosmic reason I found what none other store on the road could sell me - a Fleetwoods album! My band pals could finally see that the Fleetwoods were not just a product of my Rock'n'Roll fuelled fantasy but a real band.

The stage at Mauerpark was improvised in the back of Tomy's and Mark's flea market booth, which worked well for all involved. While we played, the guys sold more than ever before, and we had a happy crowd of people in front of us, that wouldn't even know us normally. And then it was all over. But you Autobahns better pay attention: we'll be back! Blind Willie took the Cologne live pics, thank you again! The rest of the pictures was made with my Dad's little snapshot camera by either Oliver or me.

Waiting was our mission at SUMMERIZE festival - waiting for the band who wanted to share my drum kit, the soundcheck, the warm meal, the show, the money - it really was annoying. 12 hours after we first saw the stage we could finally go on and play. The crowd liked what they heard, though we can do much better. Nice hang-out afterwards with Sandra and Jens!

Finally, the RIO Festival at the end of August. Grand Fucking Central Station. I admit I'm a pub rocker by heart. This was much too big for me. Despite all the beautiful girls around (who still looked alarmingly great at 7 a.m. - you don't take drugs, girls, do you?) and all the pals who made it to Pankow. I really don't need 4 dancefloors to be entertained. I hardly dance these days anyway. I'd have preferred a better live sound. The show was okay, but it took a while to take off. Broken guitar strings at the very beginning made most of the audience go dancing elsewhere. The 50 people who dared to stay got some good versions of songs we're fighting with normally. You see - there's something good in everything... We had rehearsed many new songs for the occasion, but we didn't have the time to play them, too. Oh those guitar strings.

June
I joined Doc Schoko's band as the new drummer. Not only have we been pals for years, but also we have a mutual respect for each others music. When I came to Berlin, Doc involved me in several projects he did. Among other interesting things, we rehearsed and played a show together in April (scroll down for details), and when the offer came to join his band I didn't have to think it over too long. A family affair really. I'll be happy to rock down every house we'll be invited to play!

Meanwhile I'm still working on the great UPDATE and I'm getting there, slowly. Most recent addition is a collection of song lyrics I wrote through the years. In case you need song texts for your band or project, feel free to ask me.

I got myself a proper domain, plenty of webspace, and right in time for the beginning of summer all MP3 files on this webpage are available again. In case you want to hear anything special that's not offered here, just ask. And please note my new e-mail address. Thank you.

While there's plenty of plans cooking (what about Leeloo Kobayashi invading Japan?), I play drums in an improvising band with some new pals. We already did it in front of an audience twice, and we have a lot of fun. Artistic directions etc. still in the making, sort of a GRATEFUL DEAD influence on how we play very likely. We're an electric guitar, an electric violin and a drum kit so far. Both Bernhard and Thomas also play a couple of other instruments, so there's some more options, too. The weekly jam at C-Base saw us as the backing band for a juvenile Hip Hop gang with a very good female lead singer. Instead of krauting away (our motivation to go there in the first place) we suddenly turned into the JB All Stars rhythm section. And the kids took off like a suitcase of Sinsemilla. I haven't seen such happy faces in a while. A shame that the sound system sucked, this could have gone on and on forever.

May
Maybe you saw me play The Walker Brothers' "The sun ain't gonna shine anymore" at an Ian Curtis tribute party on May 18th that took place at Berlin's famous BIG EDEN. An impressive line-up of artists played mostly Joy Division tunes. The crème de la crème of Berlin's underground bands plus some guests from somewhere else managed to give everybody an unforgettable evening. Highlights were: the Kreuzberger Nasenflötenorchester performing "Love will tear us apart", the mighty Indoor Surfers, who were the backing band for many other artists, and - once more - The Nothings. As far as making a scene goes, I still seem to have my chops at hand. I can't tell you properly how good THAT feels, to be among musicians who know what they're doing, loving it. Cologne has some of these wildcats, too. But the sheer quantity of first class rock'n'rollers here is reason enough for me to want to be here for a while.

The LEELOO KOBAYASHI album is out in the shops. It's called "playthings" and is really good. You will like it. No, I don't sell it. Help yourself there. I hear we have plenty of airplay in Japan.

April
The national Partei convention in Berlin Kreuzberg first saw me drumming away with Doc Schoko. I got real sentimental, because the whole evening reminded me of the days at Cologne university student administration back in the early nineties. That was a long strange night, good conversations and great people around. Special thanks to Doc and Floating Di Morel.

The LEELOO KOBAYASHI live show in Cologne was a success and made an impression (being louder than Motörhead helped). Andreas, Theo and the other Funky Chicken officials were just wonderful, and I'd like to thank them all for the perfect artist support and service while at the party and beyond. You rock!

February & March
My beloved little song "To get your point across" has been published recently on the Underground Explosion Vol. 4 Compilation. You'll get a vibrant band recording of the track for your money that's not available anywhere else.
For further information please check Köln Musik Online.

Except for the beginning of spring this was the only good news in a sad, sad winter. Well, maybe the few solo gigs are worth mentioning, too. But the rest of these first weeks in Berlin was a major downer. I doubt I could have gotten through this without my friends here: Andi (& Nadja & Kylie), Claudia, Lutz (& Anne), Sebastian (& Elke), Tomy (& Alevtina), Doc - I love you all!

Once more: it's amazing how many first class musicians you can meet here. Meeting and playing with Floating Di Morel, Henry Reyels, Crazy For Jane, Bernhard, Thomas and Artus Unival ( & Cosmic Sound Concept) made the blues disappear in-between. Can't wait to see them go for good. Meanwhile I'm back at work. Thank god. More to come.
