β | According to Alexander Reynolds this gig probably never happened. This was posted August 1st 1997 on eGroups.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20000310204911/http://www.egroups.com:80/group/idm/11665.html</ref>

β | well, as the earlier fellow mentioned, bad vilbel was not as aesthetically
| |
β | impressive as i had thought, after listening to ae's rendition. the town
| |
β | is basically split in half -- the nothern side a rest stop for senior
| |
β | citizens with the money to burn; the other half a industrial suburb,
| |
β | dedicated to bottling the spring water which the name of the town implies.
| |
β | nothing sinister or 'bad vibe'-ish, as the music impressed upon me. i had
| |
β | visions of a decrepid town with miserable, greenish looking citizens, all
| |
β | wasted on bad acid. oh well. amber#'s 'montreal' wasn't too far off the
| |
β | mark.

| |
β | sunflower was an absolute mess. it's been raining a lot in germany these
| |
β | past weeks, and the festival should have been called 'woodstock iii' or
| |
β | some such, due to it being held in some poor farmer's sunflower patch. a
| |
β | lot of warp and skam acts should have shown up, according to the schedule,
| |
β | but i guess due to the rain they decided to opt out -- including autechre,
| |
β | unfortunately -- and i don't blame em a bit. this would have been a great
| |
β | event, with acts like mike paridinas , andy maddocks, freeform, autechre,
| |
β | and boards of canada. i'd have asked for my money back but i had an
| |
β | alright time, i suppose, even though the festivaal was held twenty km
| |
β | northwest of regensburg, itself a good two hour trip away from muenchen. i
| |
β | had to perform heroic juggling acts to schedule this part of my trip --
| |
β | wish i'd lived in europe instead of the states.
| |
β |
| |
β |
| |
β | so, no autechre review. sorry, gang.
| |
β |
| |
β |
| |
β | hope you're all well.
