Helge Schneider and his Traveling Stars | Katzeklo auf Räder

In the organizer's words:

When HELGE composed Katzeklo in 1993, one could not yet think that in the future it would be possible to see each other on the phone! Complete utopia! Now, however, things look quite different!

Everybody has a cell phone, and the smallest children can already handle these things like old people. The vacuum cleaner does its work without cables and without instructions, and the lawn mower also does its duty, no matter whether someone stands behind it or prepares the potato crate in the cellar with Keim-Ex, so that the things do not germinate.

Cat toilet on wheels, does the master want to visit us on a tricycle or something?

No, that's not possible at the moment, maybe in the future. At the moment HELGE still needs four wheels to get to us with all his musical instruments and Kladderadatsch! He is with his 68 years strangely neither aged, nor does one notice it to him at all, on the contrary, he seems to become more and more a child with the years, his stories lack any reference to gravity.

As he stands there conducting his band with a thin plastic stick, Herbert von Karajan, if he were still alive, HELGE would certainly ask if he could have lessons with him!

His band consists exclusively of living human beings, here is nothing to be felt of the often awarded so-called "artificial intelligence", one even gets the impression that this has nothing to do with intelligence at all, pure force of nature, the sound!

"Are the hearing aids switched on, gentlemen?" then it starts.

Would one have given HELGE 30 years ago unconditionally his wallet for safekeeping? I hardly think so! But today? Today you can do that with confidence. Because everything the master touches becomes pure pleasure. Give (you!) your (your!) wallet to the cashier, and they will experience your (your!) blue miracle!
