flyer_5years.jpg I can’t believe this. It’s five years ago to the day that I called Raimar that fateful evening. Well, the rest is history, and by now, common knowledge. Now to spread this knowledge ( like strawberry jam on a peanutbutter sandwich) or to add insult to injury (agewise) we decided to crack down, clamp down and get down.And hope for the worst - no the real deal is: we called and everybody’s coming, so you’re very warmly (yes especially intimes like these) invited to join us for a hearty celebration of five years Art Critics Orchestra, together with friends like Fehlfarben’s own, the legendary Peter Hein (who is rumored to present a Mittagspause classic), the amazing Dave Allen (”Berlin’s favourite Scotsman”), reeds man extra-ordinaire Stephan Reiter-Raabe from Vienna and Party Dicktator and Mandolin Maniac Ole Wulfers, as well as former band members, guitar whizzes Oystein Aasan and Sabine Schmidt and our beloved vocalist Christiane Rekade, plus extra sweaty afterhour Beats by SoulFireClub’s DJ Sonic.So bring your handkerchiefs, remember (as always, ’tis the season) to come early to avoid disappointment!It’s the legendary and sweaty Zosch We love ya. If it’s five years this time, we’ll probably have to go to school next year.  Yours truely Andreas Boomboomboom
