Open-Air Festival in Heidelberg, Heiligenberg Thingstätte
A big festival with major headliners Pink Floyd and Deep Purple, that was originally cancelled. Apparently, this was because most of the advertised bands cancelled due to commitments elsewhere or due to the dubious history of the venue. So, a number of the German bands, together with "Cannapol Kommune" (Checkpoint Charlie) from Karlsruhe, organised their own event at the same venue.
Announced Bands: Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Xhol, Edgar Broughton Band, Embryo, Quintessence, Tangerine Dream, Guru Guru Groove, Nosferatu, Missus Beastly, Fashion Pink, Floh de Cologne, Warm Dust, Wedge, Gila Fuck
Only these bands are known to have played: Nosferatu, The Wedge, Checkpoint Charlie, Missus Beastly, Guru Guru.
