a place the Hard Ons play a lot.. and the home of Red Lounge Records that press both HO’s and me solo stuff on wax. the venue Alte Hackerei is an ex abattoir.. the guys think its funny that with me OCD I can even step into the place but.. happy a place of slaughter is now a rock venue. also Germans still smoke in venues, they somehow think its “progressive” so I’m mainly sitting outside till its time to rock.. one such night.. dark and lightly raining.. moon hidden by low clouds…. etc
