To the 20. For the first time, davide pusterla from the italian partner community uggiate-trevano will be in adelsdorf in august to give the adelsdorfer and aischer organists a break.

As part of his political studies, the 42-year-old had to learn another language besides english. At that time he decided in favor of german. "Since I was able to establish closer contact through the partnership with adelsdorf, this came at just the right time for me, he said. "At the signing of the partnership in 1998 in uggiate, i asked the president of the adelsdorf partnership committee how and where i could learn german in the summer. She had the idea that I should combine my organ playing with my studies and so I have been representing the organists every year since then. So I caught two pigeons with one bean (an italian proverb – we say "two birds with one stone").

For over 20 years, beer week tuesday has been the day that unites generations. On this day a very special musical program will be offered in the stadl: famous interpreters of folk schlager and pop music will set the tone. Also in the 70. The organizers have once again put together a star-studded line-up for the 20th year of beer week – including the "niederbacher siblings" and "rudy giovannini". Already at 12 o’clock "safari" will be the first time to reach for the keys and the sides.

After its premiere last year, the kulmbacher beer week is now familiar to you and the audience is also female, here the mixture is right. True to the motto "music should make you happy", the program of the local band is varied and covers german schlager, oldies, but also folk and country music. Singing and swaying along is allowed.

"We want to create a clear demarcation from services that make their business at the expense of creative," said association head florian drucke.

Among the twelve providers that have already been awarded the so-called playfair seal are music services such as itunes, deezer, juke, spotify or wimp. "We want to reach out to everyone, including other industries," drucke affirmed. The plan is to expand the idea to include films, books and games.

A packed hall, great music, dancing, imaginative costumes, an exuberant audience and performers who put on a program lasting more than three hours. These days, carnival events can be found in every nook and cranny in the district. And yet: the carnival at the BRK senior citizens’ home in ludwigsstadt is special.

Especially because everyone from the apprentice to the janitor to the home’s management put in a great effort. But the undisputed stars of the afternoon were others, namely anni gallitz and hella scheidig – home residents and together 173 years old. Quickly put on the doctor’s coat, straighten the black bow tie, put a stethoscope around his neck – and off he goes. Anni gallitz – alias emergency doctor dr. Gallitz – and her partner hella scheidig not. Four appearances went on the account of the two rustigen ladies. Whether at the doctor’s visit of hella scheidig, who as frau krautwurst is not too fat, but only too small for her coarse, or as a linguistic pensioner in the park, the two energy bundles were simply a blast. Also during the solo performances of hella scheidig as the dashing lola as well as anni gallitz as the "pitiful mister mollmann, who is unmasked by his wife as a regular guest of a night bar, no eye remained dry.
"We are no longer excited. We are a well-rehearsed team", the seniors confidently. Anni gallitz is 87 years old and comes from the fichtelgebirge, before she and her husband moved to lauenstein later on. Hella scheidig comes from ludwigsstadt and is one year young. Together they have been performing for decades. "We are both in the vdk. Anni was local supervisor of lauenstein, i of ludwigsstadt. We have spent several afternoons performing together and have slipped into a wide variety of roles," said steger, hella scheidig remembers with a smile. The two ladies had a whole collection of funny speeches to their credit. That is why it is not difficult for them to surprise with new performances, even if they are especially on the theme of "a boat trip is fun" had nothing in their rough repertoire.

What can be achieved together was recently demonstrated in the robfeld district of bad rodach. Through the interlocking of various cogwheels, the "playground" project became a reality successfully converted. The SPD city council faction gave the initial impetus with its "playground offensive", getting the ball rolling. At the official inauguration of the new playground in robfeld, mayor tobias ehrlicher recalled the first talks with the people of robfeld in which the wish for a playground was manifested. Because no suitable land was available in the town, robfeld quickly agreed to build the playground "am eulhack" to settle. In view of the 17 children under the age of twelve in the bad rodach district, the majority of the city council also saw the need to set up such a play area.

After the way for the project was free, the robfelder musikanten and helmut bracklein suddenly came forward. Bracklein made it clear that he wanted to take over the excavation work, and the robfeld musicians did not relent; they wanted to take over the installation of the playground equipment. After the city had received a grant of 30 percent from the village renewal fund for the entire project, the plans could be put into practice.

the premiere of the "lutzi-warm up – wildcard-battle" has united not only musicians of different styles, but also generations. It was packed at the bad kissingen youth and cultural center on the occasion of its first competition cooperation with"…And off goes the lutzi!". A total of six up-and-coming bands from the region competed for a gig at the music festival in rottershausen. In the end, the indian rockers from "taste of affinity" triumphed from munnerstadt.

Christian gimperlein wished for a beautiful kerm and a good mood before the start of the kirchweih parade. Gimperlein is the chairman of the albertshofen needs association and, together with many others, began organizing the albertshofen church fair as early as august. But no matter how long the preparations lasted, no one could influence the weather in favor of the kirchweih. Nevertheless, christian gimperlein remained confident shortly before the start of the parade on sunday: "there is no such thing as bad weather at the kerm."
The weather was more than modest: it rained during the entire show, the spectators who lined the streets kept themselves dry as best they could with umbrellas, and some of the posters on the floats slowly softened.
Nevertheless, everyone was in a good mood: the high council – all members in tails and top hats – was never tired of making clear who was having kirchweih this week. Even when their voices had grown hoarse from shouting, singing and puffing cigars, they still celebrated themselves and their village loudly on their wagon. "Who has kerm? – we have kerm!", the older boys shouted again and again, cheering and raising their cylinders in the air.
The rest of the party people on the floats didn’t let the bad weather spoil their mood either. They had worked too long for that, as could be seen at first glance: a train of tractors, all decorated with lettuce heads and colorful vegetables, drove leisurely from the land of the vegetable trade to the parish hall to pay a visit to pastor otto golkel.
After singing "laudato si" at the top of his lungs, he served the high council drinks – but not the kind the members of the high council had expected: instead of alcohol, they had special drinks. "We’ll have to practice that until the next term, a member of the high council shouted, but by then the carriage was already moving on. After that, the other wagons passed by the parish hall and pastor golkel was presented by the drivers with either bread with freshly churned butter or a cup of soup.
Then the clergyman himself had to go into action. He had to snatch a sausage from a string with his mouth from a fishing rod. "They have already come up with something nice", the pastor noticed after most of the cars had already passed by – but he hadn’t yet spotted the car of the surveyors.
Instead of the rattle of a tractor, the audience at the side of the road heard loud music and the noise of an engine revving far too high. Instead of a bulldog decorated with gemuse, a neon yellow car drove through albertshofen’s streets. On the roof of the car a black sofa with the writing "make kerm no war" was rotating.
With this car, the geometers have perfectly fulfilled their mission for the kirchweih, namely to appear as bizarre, crazy and above all anarchistic as possible. "These are the wild ones in the village", suspected pastor golkel.
The surveyors also went wild when they had to look for and dig up the kirchweih barrel after the parade. Somewhere inside a small field this barrel was buried. Before it was found again, a toilet bowl was dug up and the surveyors destroyed as many old things in the field as possible. The church fair speech "the kerwaraid" became a utopia, almost in the background: the highlight was simply the geometers.
When the barrel was finally dug by the very youngest under the guidance of the surveyors, the mood reached its high point. The rain could not harm the church fair. Wet, but in good spirits and with big grins on their faces, the spectators of the procession went to the parish hall for coffee and cake afterwards. Christian gimperlein was right with his prediction at the end of the kirchweih parade: even the worst rainy weather can’t harm the kerm in albertshofen.

Georg friedrich handel provides this evening's theme song. "Hallelujah" tont it in coburg's youth center "domino" from the speakers. Then simon and jan enter the stage – admittedly without drums and trumpets, but instead with two guitars.

"Hallelujah!" the musical cabaret duo has christened its current program – a choice of title that fits the style of their songs perfectly. The tendency toward sentimental melodies only serves as camouflage and is repeatedly and ruthlessly counteracted by cynical texts that like to pretend they want to sing about the idyll, only to expose it all the more surely in the next moment.

Frolicking in the colorful water, climbing, sliding, diving for apples, shooting cones with water pistols, eleven-meter shooting and gender competitions – all this made saturday afternoon at the aquaria one of the most enjoyable days of the easter holidays for the children. "Are you in a good mood, do you have power, do you want to party??", moderator rainer blasted into the microphone. Full of enthusiasm, the young bathers shouted a resounding yes in chorus. Like a pool full of lively tadpoles, the children danced to the music in the water and sang along loudly to the familiar earworms.

Exciting competitions
