The day began just like the entire half year before, with lots of gray and snow. So this is what March looks like here. Annoying! It wasn't until the afternoon that we decided to go to Münster anyway. Two friends were supposed to come along. I really wanted to go, no matter the weather and whether I was alone or not. Then we set off and we were... too early. That doesn't happen very often, so we had delicious burgers at the burger place across from the Gleis. Along with a cold Coke. Fast food before an American band plays live isn't really bad either. After the snack, we headed back and the first spectators gathered in front of the entrance. The annoying thing about North Rhine-Westphalia is really the smoking ban. It's super irritating. But luckily, I knew almost every second person hanging around there, so many conversations were held about this and that. Pogo from "Messer" (and many other bands like Press Gang, Short Fuse, Dramamine, or the Schlippies) was also there, and since we hadn't seen each other in a while, we had a nice chat as always when we met. Great guy. At some point, "Bad Sports" started. As a trio, they are not only the backing band for "Nobunny" but also the support act for the entire tour. I had only briefly listened to a few songs beforehand and was curious about what to expect live. On record, it was pretty good but not really something that blows you away. Then they started, and they were really awesome. Primitive teen beat reminiscent of a garage and wild version of the Buzzcocks. Here, too, the spirit of Joey Ramone was omnipresent, and the bassist looked like a teen version of Dee Dee. Simple, melodic garage punk should sound this great more often. Apparently, I had only listened to crappy songs online, or I just wasn't ready for garage sound that day. Whatever. Everything fit here, and afterwards, we went back into the sleet to smoke. Nice people everywhere, like Bernd from the CRKO fanzine, Christian from diegoldenehor.de (definitely check out the site!! the photo here is also his!!), Holgi the old rocker, and many others. Then the intro started, and I quickly grabbed a Coke at the bar, and the party could finally begin. A few words on the side: "Nobunny" is a mix of human and rabbit. Dressed only in a denim jacket, underwear, and a bunny mask, he joyfully celebrates naive party rock & roll that convinces from start to finish. The music is a mix of the Ramones, parties, girls, cocktails, and a lot of 60s teenage-heartbreaking rock & roll. Just awesome and fun. Songs with titles like "I am a girlfriend", "motörhead with me", or "chuck berry holiday" say it all. You shouldn't miss it. Records are definitely recommended! After the concert, there was a cigarette afterwards, and I got back in the car with the two smitten girls who were raving about Nobunny to drive back to Osnabrück. The "Record Riot Concerts" at Gleis 22 are always recommended! I got the photo from Christian Kock www.diegoldenehor.de (copyright belongs to him and the band) THANK YOU!
