Great mood in the
"Westfalen"-hall with the best Oldie stars, The
best Oldie stars kept on rocking for only 5000 fans
Eight
hours of party-mood in the big "Westfalen"-hall
Almost worth an
entry in the guinnesbook - the big Oldie party in the
"Westfalen"-hall: Eight hours hit after hit
from the 60s and 70s, presented by the
"Rundschau" newspaper.
They looked a little grey, even a little old,
the stars of rock 'n roll, the stars of the 60s, the
bubble-gum-rockers. But the music was as good as ever,
although one or two songs were playback because of the
quick changes on stage.
Twelve bands and singers stood at the microphones and
created a great mood for the (unfortunately only) 5000
Oldie-fans. But they celebrated a great party in the
hall.
Marmalade started with their classic
"Obladi-Oblada", then Chip Hawkes the former
voice of the Tremeloes made a lot of lighters shine their
light with "Silence Is Golden". And then the
other bands followed quickly: Jeff Christie sang his
million-hits "San Bernadino" and "Yellow
River" before it was time for
"bubble-gum-rock": "Simple Simon
Says" or "Chewy Chewy" with Ohio Express.
The surprise for the Oldie-fans: Bernie Paul came on
stage and performed his hit "Lucky" for which
he won the "Golden Lion" of RTL exactly 18
years ago on the same stage.
The mood got better the more beer was sold.
When SAILOR, the secret stars of the evening, came on
stage the mood was on its climax: "Girls Girls
Girls" was sung by many voices. Even The Troggs
could not surpass this success with their "Wild
Thing" shortly before the end of the show.
