Ein anderes Galactic Peace Tour?

Wenn ich höre das Krautrock, ich glaube das vielleicht kann lebe ein anderes Galactic Peace Tour. Ich habe kein Geld aber diese ist wo ich lebe und diese ist was ich höre. In Italy sind Reis und Aldo, in Amsterdam ist Patricia, in London ist Alazarin, und in Deutschland ist vielleicht Lefty. Ich kann nicht wo ich werde lebe aber ich kann so viel wo ich möchte spielen, wo ich liebe zü spielen.

Diese ist nicht Google, diese ist mein Herz.

Translation:

When I hear Krautrock, I think that perhaps another Galactic Peace Tour can live.  I have no money but I know where I live and I know what I hear.  In Italy are Reis and Aldo, in Amsterdam is hexx Triskaidekaphobia, in London is Alazarin Mondrian, in Germany will, perhaps, be Lefty Unplugged.  I don't know where I will live but I know so much where I want to play, where I love to play.

This is not Google, this is my heart.



Nationalism is a very very big thing to me as I have seen the worst of what it can be in American military despotism and now I search everywhere for the best it can be.  I see it so much in Greek traditional music and the music of Greece overall and I love that.  However, it is very much a defined mode of expression, even the rock is very much old school.  That is a beautiful thing but it isn't what I do.  I hear it ringing all through me in Krautrock and I love it.  I hear it in Reis and Aldo, Sister hexx, Alazarin, and Lefty.  All sing of the Galactic Peace and the Love of Man.  It brings tears to my eyes as I so much believe the Truth of everything all of us say.  It is only in silence that we are defeated and we will speak!

It does not look like I will be able to stay in Greece anyway.  Georgia is wonderful and I love her but the dental work has cost so much so fast that I am broke and Lotho is broke.  The cost of Internet is much higher and the speed is much slower than the Web site promised and this makes it impossible to work online so there is little chance of survival here.  What I hope is to trade the iMac to pay the balance on what I owe Georgia and then I can leave without carrying any debt with me except to Mary and Harry for the tremendous help they have given.  If I have no house then there are three hundred extra euros each month and that is nowhere near enough to get anywhere to stay but perhaps it is enough to travel from friend to friend to stay a while with them while we jam.

I realise that Krautrock is a historical thing but the Love of Peace is not and it lives very strongly in Germany.  I hear Cat speak in extremely passionate resentment of things of which Germany is accused and I know now for myself they are not true.  Nowhere is perfect but nowhere is working harder to find perfection.  Germany has so much earned its right to speak and it is something the world needs to hear.
