Another exciting day

It was a very short night in Franconia last Sunday. After only 3,5 hours of sleep it was time for breakfast. Some other visitors of the Dunkelschön concert were staying in the same hotel and it was nice to talk about the past event during breakfast.

After packing I went to Schonungen again. I needed petrol for the way home - and had to collect my SDcard from the band to get my memories. By 1:00 PM I was on the road again and there was no hold up on the way.

Coming home at 4:30 PM I had time for a cup of tea and some cake before my sister arrived to drive with me to Hannover for another concert. Angelo Branduardi's music has accompanied me for almost all my life and I looked forward to this church concert very much. Due to all the travelling I had not bought a ticket yet, as a hold up on the motorway would have cancelled the concert for me.

We arrived on time in the city, but it took us at least 15 minutes to find a place to park the car! Still, we made it to the right church just in time. Can you imagine my face, when we were told, that there were no tickets left? NOOOOOO! That couldn't be - not after 400 km of travelling!!!!

The young man at the entrance was very strict and almost angry about my pleading for finding a way. While I still tried to comprehend the situatian, a woman asked the "gate keeper", if there were still seats on the balcony? She was told, that the sound wasn't any good, but there might be free seats. Well, I decided to follow her and have a look at the balcony. My sister was already upstairs and we found plenty of free seats with a perfect sight to the stage - and no one asking our business up there or if we had a ticket!

So we enjoyed a wonderful quiet concert, maybe with a less perfect sound than in the church itself, and I could take wonderful photos and videos to share with other fans.

Of course we are full of gratitude and donated money for other cultural events in that church.
