Our friend Uwe, who fronts this hard rock cover band “Rockfever.” 

We got through our first day of this four-day festival, and the only thing that woke me was the sound of the truck cleaning the streets, this morning. There was a reggae band down the street that started at midnight and played to 6 a.m., but we didn’t hear it. Dawn and I made the mistake of buying “neuwein,” as our first cup, which has no alcohol and gives you diarrhea, according to our friends.

Here are some more pictures:

The sekt stand (German prosecco), literally right up the street from our house

Benny and Sasha, who warned us about the neuwein

Many impromptu bars like this one have sprung up 

Too much neuwein
