Hi, I was just sorting out my mailbox and came to your message. What difference did you noticed between both video ? I know the video broadcasted in France have a different ending than the one broadcasted in Germany. In France, video end with an animated version of the official TDF 2003 logo In Germany, it end with a view to the Eiffel tower.

Karl Bartos Dates
by John Shilcock 10 Sep '03

10 Sep '03

I hear, from someone who has recently spoken to Karl Bartos' other half, that the concerts announced on this list are NOT going to happen. A phone call or two to the venues seem to confirm that. October is more than likely (at this moment in time) to be when Karl plays in the UK. Keep Werking John www.keepwerking.co.uk

Italian interview with Ralf
by Luca Dassi 05 Sep '03

05 Sep '03

The Italian newspaper "La Stampa" published last Friday an interview with Ralf Hutter about TDF2003 (still unpublished in Italy). Contents: the usual stuff. Notable lines follow. "We haven't been inactive during the last 17 years. We restructured our studio and transferred all sounds into a computer, did some computer graphics work (?) with Emil Schult, made a remix album and wrote a track for the Hannover Expo." "The Siouxsie version of 'Hall of Mirrors' is extraordinary, as well as the cover versions by Alex Balanescu. We liked very much the Senor Coconut album too." "We are preparing a multimedia tour due to start at the beginning of 2004. After our experience at la Citè de la Musique in Paris we're looking for other architectonically unusual places. In Italy there's a lot of them. In Turin they have that building with a car race track on the roof - it would be perfect." Full text (in Italian) available @ http://www.lastampa.it/search/albicerca/ng_articolo.asp?IDarticolo=846897&se zione=Spettacoli Ciao, Luca

Return of Kraftwerk vs punk, part 769
by Oystein Moe 03 Sep '03

03 Sep '03

Um, I know we're on overtime for this discussion, but filtre4pole said a couple of things I wish to comment on. Scroll to next message if you could care less. >Arf! arf! :-D yeah.... are you kidding ? Not really, no... but I do take this less than very serious. ;-) >[Putting away and especially *ignore* the fundamentals (indeed, not the >same >world) : easy] then finding out some funny similitudes (*btw* that I don't >contest ;-)) *after* the event is certainly interesting (and more amusing) >for anecdotal thoughts. As you can see, I agree wholeheartedly. >But building any kind of "connection theory" upon >that is much bolder ...and eventually ridiculous: because people who >*absolutely* (I still don't see why) want to put Kraftwerk and the punks >into the same bag must have forgotten (or mistaken...) some major facts: You have this habit of mixing the words "my opinion" with "the facts", it is slightly annoying. Facts, you will agree, are measurable, objective pieces of info, like "Kraftwerk released TEE in 1977" or "punk was big in UK in 1976-7". We can't reconstruct the music scene of 1977 so none of us can claim to know EXACTLY what was going on. Personally, I like my theories, I even prefer them to yours, but I claim no copyright of truth in this matter, and you shouldn't either. >Kraftwerk are subtle *elite* electro avant-garde artists of all time Here is where I disagree with you, because Kraftwerk are not "elite" in any other way than their fans making them out to be so. They have repeatedly reserved themselves from any elitist thinking, they refuse to comment on the influence their music has had on modern popular culture, and as Florian Schneider said in an interview with Norwegian music paper Puls in 1982, "I can assure you our music is not meant for round table conferences". Elite as in very good; absolutely. But elite as in "we do something you couldn't"? No, that's jazz music. Which I dismiss on the whole. I prefer punk. >when punks were just... temporal rock'n punk and jerks! ;-)) Please, how do >you >want to "compare/connect"? Obviously, "punks were (...) jerks" is opinion, not fact, as it would depend who you ask whether it would be agreed upon or not... Though I'm sure all punks would agree to some extent. And I compared and connected enough I think in my previous mail. And I STILL have this funny feeling I forgot what my point was. O well. oystein _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail snakker ditt språk! http://www.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/sbox?rru=dasp/lang.asp - Få Hotmail på norsk i dag

>>It doesn't matter whether he co-composed TEE or not. Every musician in the world has the right to play any music there is in the world. ...and if they perform that music publicly then they should pay the royalties to the appropriate authorities. Keep Werking John www.keepwerking.co.uk
