If It Wasn´t For The Aussies



.. or "Some Days Are Crap" (Fun video at the end).
... or... "Germans Fail (Again) To Organize".. Whatever, it was frustrating!
It was buskers-festival again, the third time.

I love (good) buskers! We do.
The first festival came with... lame buskers. Nothing inspiring at all.
The second one had international but you never knew when or where the artists are, despite there was a map.

This time we saw this...



Mombé was, according to plan, at main stage from 02:40 - 03:00 p.m.. But pic above was all we got.

You know. "We" make the time and I am punctual per sé, Ingo even more so.
In the end another band came onto stage and when I asked I was told a lame excuse by the staff and where to find the band instead.
And we went.
And they took their time like forever (we left and not only us).

See, we were full of hope and again purchased their stuff:



The girl where we bought it was dumb as well.
Ingo asked, handing over a €20-note, can you give me back small change for the buskers? - she agreed and gave €5-notes. Guess we wanted notes, huh, not like... €1 coins... for crying out loud, just stop using your brain!

€5 per item was actually too much and we won´t repeat this, not at the beginning at least!
We had...



Maps and timetables... useless.

There was...



All neatly listed and described, but, alas...



Which one is where???

We ended up at Schadt´s for a beer and went on to Herman´s for another yummy burger, but, again... ALAS!
Thanks to TU-Night they only opened at 06:00 pm, which means... all too late for Ingo!
So we went to the grocery store and got some sad crap and were more than a tad disappointed!
Again.

Thanks, Aussie guys, you were the only fun ones we were able to find:



What a crap Saturday! (At least we were together and healthy, too).

That's disappointing that the organization was that bad!!
You made the best of a bad start at least.

Yes, Ingo said it was the last time he went.

That IS a useless map -- and a clueless woman giving change. I'm sorry it was disappointing and disorganized. Glad the Aussies were fun!

Clueless, that´s the right word. Or is it? Aw, well, Sunday wasn´t better, LOL...

Oh that's so annoying when you're looking forward to supporting and enjoying an event and it's as if THEY don't appreciate it! When things start to go wrong it often escalates until the whole day is too naff! Maybe next year it'll be better Iris, we have to be hopeful right 😀
