The Sunny Window of the Rainy Summer - Lesson Number Twentytwo
Man, this summer! April - April - April! The sunny window of the rainy summer was just right when concerts on Friday evening were also postponed to later dates due to the violent storm. The festival had initial difficulties, which were mastered well, and the great shows that followed finally overshadowed this wind hole. The storm didn't come back. On Saturday and Sunday there was the most beautiful sunshine.
The first concerts were held on Wednesday and the festival settled in. "Hot Fur" was the first time a band from Israel was at the Zappanale, "Oozing Goo" thundered their progressive rock'n'roll, weighing tons of keyboards, into the bewildered auditorium. Fritz Rau had to cancel due to a death in the family, but all other planned 'extra events' took place in the Bad Doberaner Kamp cinema and on the festival grounds. On Thursday, "Zappnoise" from Stralsund stood on the small stage, and despite some program changes, they all got their turn: "SoundSchleuder", "Evil Dick", "Tonlast", "The Journey".
Friday at 1pm was Jim Cohen time, the perennial Zappanale presenter and refreshing Zappa copywriter could do a TV show, he's got what it takes. And if he climbed onto the stage of the Kamp Theater at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, more of the festival audience would have the chance to enjoy his vivid, astounding performances.
Dutch journalist Co de Kloet not only has his own 24-hour show, he has repeatedly interviewed Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart and musicians from the Mothers of Invention and broadcast interviews on his radio show (" Supplement"), Thursday evening he had plenty of time to report on this (and more).
Parallel to the festival, there were again interesting and definitely worth seeing exhibitions in Bad Doberan at Markt 3. On display were works by the German painter Lothar Taube, the Austrian Helmut King - an old friend of the Zappanale, Carlos Zerpa from Venezuela and the well-known artist Cal thighs.
From Friday noon on the festival site: the best: music. Terence Hansen played their sets, after which the violent storm took over. Hardly anyone let the festival mood spoil and lo and behold - later in the evening the breeze died down and the stages were used again. First,Essra Mohawk gave a too extended concert. The lady referred to by FZ as 'Uncle Meat' was once the first and only mother. At the Zappanale she mainly played lyrical songs and blues. As she began to cover her former boss, the audience moved and couldn't wait to hear 'his' Zappa.
Doctor Nerve from New York, via the Kickstarter project 'Send Dr. Nerve to the Zappanale' (http://www.youtube.com /watch?v=g0uwX441t8Q), dropped out at 5 p.m., but thought they would also play at 2 a.m., which they did, but in front of a relatively small audience, the day of arrival the majority of the crowd went to bed earlier sent. The following day, the avant-gardists around Nick Didkowsky gave a second concert on the Truck Stage, the small stage, and finally the rested audience was able to enjoy the crass crazy program of the free jazz metal freaks. Unfortunately, there was an almost complete overlap with "Jono El Grande" on the main stage, whose zappa-esque original compositions are highly recommended (no less than Doctor Nerve!).
And: on Friday evening, after Essra Mohawk, who was on stage with the extravagant artist Sandro Oliva, it didn't end! Njet.Project/Object by the gifted André Cholmondeley gave a terrific Zappa set. Featuring: Ike Willis and Ray White. Who of those who played with Zappa was still on stage: Robert Martin. In addition, Chris Opperman, who has already released several albums under his own name
