Oldie Night in Northeim (Germany), 12 May 1994:
Second
Oldie-Festival
"Waldbühne"
is a fan-paradise
Good music
and nice spring-weather: 3500 people were fascinated by the
second Oldie-festival in Northeim at the "Waldbühne".
The fans really liked the performances of the 45 minutes long
performances of the old stars; they also liked the fantastic
atmosphere at the open air arena. And the nice whether also
helped to create a great party-mood for the visitors of the
second "Forever Young" event.
In the evening it was the usual picture: Lighters and candels lit
up the open air stage that is said to be one of the prettiest in
Germany. After the show the musicians told us that they also
enjoyed the concert very much.
(...) Nobody thought "This is only a playback
show". Everybody knew that the bands of the 70s were still
strong.
Especially Suzi Quatro from Detroit, who will live in Hamburg
after her marriage soon, proved this in her very loud way. The
woman with the tight outfit and the great voice performed her
hits "48 Crash" or "Can The Can". The
audience loved her and came closer to the barrier in front of the
stage - singing and shouting.
SAILOR, who appeared in the usual outfit, also got good
resonances. The leadsinger in the "captainslook"
expressed the fun of great live performances: A constant smile
could be seen on his face while he accelerated the speed with his
guitar. That´s why "Girls Girls Girls" or "A
Glass Of Champagne" were enjoyed very much and made the fans
dancing.
The good quality of the music made good old memories come back
into the visitors' minds. But that doesn't mean that there were
only old people in the audience. Surprisingly lots of young
people celebrated the Oldie-party as if the number-one teeny-band
was in town.
They performed lots of former number-one-hits:
"Zabadak" with Dave Dee", "Sugar Baby
Love" with the Rubettes" and "Baby Come Back"
with the Equals. Top-act were Slade with hits like "Far Far
Away". The surprise of the show were the guests "The
Original Blue Moons", a local band from Göttingen that
started the show. (...)
The text under
the photo of Georg:
"SAILOR" played as fresh as at the beginning of their
career - the best musical act.
NORTHEIM - Warm
temperatures and nice music from the good old days - that was
available for 3500 people who made their way to the idyllic
"Waldbühne" in Northeim in order to see the second
Oldie-Festival.
(...) Afterwards SAILOR performed and cared for a great
mood and many joyful expressions on the faces with songs like
"Girls Girls Girls".
