Muff Potter farewell concert at the Jovel

really wanted to nail no punk. That he then embarked on this path but we have to include a large disco room of his Hometown Rheine owe. After all, it wants to at least the legend, he found the audience there so stupid that he ultimately had no choice at all. It was said: Roxy or punk. Nagel chose the latter and formed a band with Bernd Ahlert, who after a character in Tom Sawyer called "Muff Potter" and wanted to make music in the style of the punk band EA80.
That was sixteen years ago, Nagel was 17 years old. Now, half a lifetime later, the band has released eight albums and numerous singles and risen to one of the most important German punk bands. But even the best times go by - in the summer, the Band announced its dissolution. In order duly to thank and say goodbye, the band went in December to big farewell tour, on Saturday there was the very last concert before about 1,500 fans in cathedral Jovel.
time for a summary: 18 concerts have played Muff Potter here, from the kebab house to the Halle Münsterland, in nine different shops. "That one must first create in Münster," as Nagel says. The concert at the Jovel should but all previous gigs in the shade and share a grand finale - so full it was on a Muff Potter concert ever. Accordingly, the band was stirred then also by the enthusiasm and dedication with which the fans celebrated the concert and in the tinsel rain hits even sang along one last time in "unbreakable" to "flash Bop" to "22 tracks later."
It may be a coincidence that Muff Potter have written so many songs about goodbyes, but on Saturday night made it all make sense. "Get me just go home, do not ask for tomorrow" because it was programmatic, or: "They're the end? That's can not have been yet. " But as this is now taking the leave. It is never easy, and it usually hurts a bit. No wonder that on Saturday no one wanted to go so right. But a more worthy farewell it could not have been. And in the end will, in the words of EA80, a hopeful "goodbye!"
