Flashback: Minsk and The Apollo Video Programm

August 1, 2010 by Farmer's Boulevard → 2 comments

Around 19 years after the World Wide Web gone public, 13 years after Farmer’s Boulevard was founded and 5 years after YouTube was invented we did it: our first video upload. Hell yeah, sometimes we are really Oldschool :) Now it’s time to introduce our Vimeo profile and the FB tube.

Like you know we never got the diary of the Tour 2009 finished because of a lack of time and a lack of really useable/stable video editing tools under Linux :) - but we got around 10 hours of video material and probably more than 2000 pictures. Here is a small bit of it. The video is a very rough cut of footage from our show in Minsk where we played on May 20th, 2009, pictures were also take around this time. We thank Luda and Igor for guiding us a whole day through Minsk, and Mitya and his friends for organizing the show.

This year we won’t play Belarus, but again in Czech Republic, Ukraine and Poland in September. And again we are excited to go. Hope to meet you on the roads!

Nach Leipzig ist vor Leipzig

Vielen Dank an alle von Euch, die am Samstag bei unserer Show in der Lichtwirtschaft waren. Uns hat es viel Spaß gemacht, Euch hoffentlich auch. Wie wir auf dem Konzert schon gesagt haben, hilft uns die Show finanziell bei unserer Osteuropa-Tour, insofern tragen wir euch die ca. 7500 km mit im Herzen. Wer Bilder gemacht hat, ist ausdrücklich aufgefordert, uns diese zu schicken :)

Der nächste Termin für Leipzig steht auch schon fest, wir spielen am 13.06.2009 im Zombiekeller Underground in der Alten Spinnerei in Leipzig. Also wer uns am Wochenende verpaßt hat oder nicht genug bekommen konnte, kommt dort vorbei. Das ist sogar eine Freeshow, kostet also nüscht.

Hier noch ein paar Bilder aus der LiWi:

Stickin’ to the guns at the hair salon

Photo session crew

We did not make any official band pictures for years but after our show at Atari Leipzig in November 2008 Tristan offered us to do some. So for the first time ever we got a real flash, a real camera and (maybe important) a real photographer. The deal loked like that: first he shoot some pics in our area, later we change to a special location and he has the right to put us in very special situations for the pictures. We started at the Spinnerei in Plagwitz and we ended at a very noble hair salon in Leipzig city. It was fun, we could behave like clowns. Official promo stuff is now at http://farmers-boulevard.de/promoartwork/, here you can check out the whole day picture-wise:
