Later we met Alexis Korner and that was our luck. Because the organizers were not present at all and nobody was there who could give us any information. Alexis was the good soul of the festival and probably also its salvation. During the breaks he was always on stage with his guitar, played a par blues tune and made sure there were good vibrations on the square. And behind the stage he took care of the other musicians. He took us by the hand and drove with us into a pension. We were totally exhausted from the long drive, but we still sat and talked with him until four in the morning. | Later we met Alexis Korner and that was our luck.

That's when I realized the check wasn't covered. | I can still remember Limbus because we were friends with them, and then Ton Steine Scherben came and the stage started to burn.
