the wild hog is heraldic animal of the free hinterwald festival: "Let it all hang out!" was the motto of the 14th. Hope we see next year the rebirth after 3 years hiatus

A Repost from "Voodoo Waggon" / "Floppy Boot Stomp"portraying the so called "Hinterwald Scene", in a small german town Püttlingen/Köllerbach, where in the mid 70ies the younger ones took up their chances and layed the groundwork for a scene with a lot of bands, magazines and a free festival that should have this year its 41th birthday ... if there weren't obstacles like a damned pandemia or poisonous dumb animals stopping the whole show in 2019
when this was planned but didn't happen
So I repost some stuff as kind of surrogate to this years festival portraying the now almost 50 years of what we call the "hínterwald" and the "wald & wiesen cowboys" (forrest & plains cowboys). I suggest taking a look at the site I prepared in waiting for the 40th festival, enjoy the fine art of "snoid studios", to whom this blog is a bit dedícated celebrating him here every sunday - his art isn't published yet even I'm trying to "nudge" him a bit to do it.
Enjoy his festival posters (to be found under Snoid Studios -> Plakate) and all the portraits of folks who are part of the scene then.
Tthe typical "Hinterwald" Understatement-style: I'm just nobody (in the also typical hinterwald-patois/dialect, "E. Garkäner = E. Niemand = J(ust) Nobody"). This is how folks at the "Hinterwald" handle this kind of stuff: "We're not interested in making money or being successfull - we just wanna make our thing". So none of the bands had ever a greater audience - even they deserved a lot of like "Sinalco Fluor S" or Triebwagen with their dialect lyrics.
So "Snoid Studios" (aka "E. Garkäna") never published a book with his works - even I'm trying really hard to make him do so.
