Number 1 One I

Did we already mention the enormous weather? Our cellar tanned bodies were screaming for sun and 35 degrees in the shade. We can already feel the palm trees growing here. Soaking wet we arrived at the Kulturni Dom of the Studentski Grad wednesday afternoon. It was the first time people were dancing and sitting on their seats at the same time. We didn't know that this is possible. Great audience here in Belgrade! The people understood our not so good (only two words) serbian very well. So in return we taught them some german words like 'Hui' and 'Jeah'. Still it was a big mistake to organize a seated concert. The air was burning during the show. After a couple of songs the students tore the wooden banks apart and threw them around. Fortunately the local police academy was nearby. The boys and girls had a tough job to hold back the groupies from smothering the bandmembers. At the end we had to play one encore after the other to calm down the raging crowd of ca. 500 people! After all there very friendly to us.

Belgrade's nightlife could offer great spots that had nothing to do with water though it sounded like it. The 'island' is easy to reach without swimming. It's a small piece of green bedded between highway 72 and highway 63. The 'fountain' is also a great place to sit because it's as dry as a bone. No water here as well. At least the kiosk round the corner doesn't give a damn about prohibition and sells alcohol even after 10pm. It opens every morning at zero o' clock and closes midnight. The appartments were great but after this great night only half of us were able to get there.
