The day begins quietly enough. Clyde and the driver take a short shopping trip downtown before getting down to work. This year's European heat wave seems tailor made for leisure or plain old lounging. But there's no lounging here. There's still plenty of work to do, starting with sound check, after which we all sit down to a home style meal cooked by Tedo and Dave Richards. They make a serious team in the kitchen, which is born out by the various people who take a pass on the food that's already available in order to have some of their creations.
The German people know their reggae music and they couldn't wait to see Burning Spear once again. Most of the people have waited at least a year for this and can't wait for the show to start...and it started with a bang!! The audience projected so much energy that it became contagious and the exchange began. By shows end, there could be no doubt that the people's loyalty to Burning Spear was richly rewarded.
