We’re still processing the impressions from yesterday’s Eonly Warm-Up, even after a few hours of sleep. After a refreshing shower and a hearty breakfast, we head back to the Stadtbad around noon. When we arrive just before half past twelve, a small group of music enthusiasts has already gathered, including the usual suspects from yesterday, who we greet warmly. The grill is fired up, and some guests are already enjoying food from the stand by the entrance. Others pass the time with lively conversations. The second group for today’s Stadtbad tour is also waiting to get started. What’s that about a Stadtbad tour? If you’re curious, just check out our article from yesterday’s Warm-Up.

Skunk Anansie & Support: So Good
SKUNK ANANSIE are back in Germany for five concerts! 30 years after their founding and over eight years since their last studio album, fans can once again look forward to new music and a European tour! When SKUNK ANANSIE formed in London in 1994, the music scene was dominated by Britpop - driven by white men with guitars. However, the four band members - Deborah “Skin” Dyer, Martin “Ace” Kent, Richard “Cass” Lewis, and Robbie - stood out: as one of the first mixed-race bands, they drew attention right from the start. As support, “Bratpop” band SO GOOD was accompanying the tour.

Heilung - “Albion, Eiru ok Erop Ferdhast” - Support: Eivør
With the resounding chants of Christopher Juul, Maria Franz, and Kai Uwe Faust, HEILUNG does not merely perform; they invoke. Their rituals, veiled in the essences of forgotten landscapes, pull you into a realm where the primordial and the modern collide. Their sonic enchantments, crafted with ancestral breath and iron’s cold kiss, transcend the mere act of listening, pulling you into a communal trance born of earth and stars. Prepare, kindred spirits, as the Nordic collective declares their recent voyage, “Albion, Eiru ok Erop Ferdhast”, an odyssey through the mists of history and the echoes of old. The evening was opened by phantastic Eivør, always a wonderful live experience.
