	~~===Open Air Love~~ and ~~Peace Festival~~ Fehmarn~~===~~		Fehmarn was our first festival and we thought it would be a great festival: Whoever plays there, big stars and we are there too. So we were very euphoric and drove the 1000 km from Munich to Fehmarn with our VW bus in one turn. We arrived on Fehmarn in the dark in the evening and it was terrible weather: rain and storm. We were immediately welcomed by a horde of rockers who surrounded the bus. We said we were Embryo and should play here. The VW bus had a gutter around the roof at that time. The rockers clung to it and beat the people in front of us with chains to make room for us. We were totally shocked and shouted: Are you crazy? Stop it! But they were drunk and did not react at all.

	The next morning we drove together with Alexis to the festival area. To our surprise, we met all the Munich celebrities there - Rainer Langhans, Uschi Obermeier and people like that. They had come specially and hoped to talk a few sentences with Jimi ~~Hendrix~~. In vain, of course. Jimi came along and disappeared immediately in a caravan. In front of it rockers with drawn knives built themselves up and I thought again: For heaven's sake, where have we ended up here.		The next morning we drove together with Alexis to the festival area.

	I watched the Hendrix performance from the audience, and it was a completely different atmosphere. The weather was wonderful, and it was a huge atmosphere. I thought Jimi played a good concert, too. The people liked it, they were in a good mood. And we played right next to Jimi's gig and we got a positive vibe.

	The concert was great. We played for about ~~45 minutes~~ and the response from the audience was huge. As we played, the landscape changed. I really enjoyed that. The sun was shining and it was a special feeling to play right by the sea.		The concert was great. We played for about three quarters of an hour and the response from the audience was huge. As we played, the landscape changed. I really enjoyed that. The sun was shining and it was a special feeling to play right by the sea.

	After the gig the stress started. We had to bring our equipment to safety and to be careful that nothing was stolen. At that time they stole at concerts like ravens, because equipment was expensive. So we were quite panicky about what was stolen, because we had follow-up concerts on the way back, which we couldn't have played if something important was missing. We were so busy packing up that I didn't even notice how it went on stage.		After the gig the stress started. We had to bring our equipment to safety and to be careful that nothing was stolen.

	Max must have had the right nose or maybe they had told him, but he hid the money in his stocking. In front of the barrack he was searched by rockers and they would have taken all his money. Again and again we were confronted with these rockers, who enjoyed their position of power as stewards.

	I can still remember Limbus because we were friends with them, and then ~~Ton Steine Scherben~~ came and the stage started to burn. The only thing left for us then was to get on the bus and let's go. That's when I realized the check ~~wasn~~'t ~~covered~~.
