Munich Blade Night 2004

"I see that the true spirit of the Putsch is still alive and well in old Muenchen. Hey Keydeck, slowburn and Punchbear, why not head on down to the Hofbrauhaus in your brown shirts and see if you can stir up some action? The machine gun comment was especially warm - first the skaters, then the Jews, then the Gypsies, then..."

And then one dark night, they came for my sense of humour. And by then it was immaterial as I didn't have one.

Wait a minute, why am I expending precious kilojoules of energy typing this?

I stand by my bladers comment. I think they're a plague.

Speaking of Putsch - seeing this herd of stupidly grinning me-toos rolling by you begin to understand how Munich some 70 years ago could become the capital of the movement: "The road is ours - if you want to cross it you will have to become one of us or end up in the hospital." I wonder when they will start to bring their torches along?

And - oh - how I love the organizers' statement how ecological this all is - especially seeing all these cars parking in my neighbourhood on mondays with people sitting in the open door and getting into their blades.

Alles ist vorbei! Yesterday was the last event of the year. Save yer rantings and ravings for 2005!
