After a short break to relax it was time to start working. The Madhouse was well packed and I had learned from conversations that many people here were already looking forward to seeing the Ron Evans Group for the third time in Augsburg. By the way, the first gig came about after the Ron Evans […]
After the photo session at Rainer’s place we went to Augsburg, district Lechhausen. This is where the Madhouse is – a unique club, furnished with great attention to detail, pub, living room and stage in one. These kind of clubs are threatened with extinction, have their fan communities, who meet there again and again like […]
Before we went to the Madhouse in Augsburg on November 16th, we met in Munich at Rainer’s place. I had some lights from my studio in Hanover in the car boot and came a little earlier so I could set up. The room was not really big, but it was enough for the task. A […]
14 days ago I joined the Ron Evans Group again on two evenings during their gigs. In the afternoon of the second day we added a photo session for a new group photo and some headshots. But one after the other. On November 15th we started at the Schwabing Podium. For some time now, to […]

The last stop of the Retrospective 3 tour was the Kofferfabrik in Fürth. A great location – just like you would imagine a live stage in a really old building, but with the patina and charm of the past. Rainer (from the Kofferfabrik, not from the band) did the soundcheck here like Volker did it […]
At the KultBahnhof I have been twice: in April and August 2016, in April with the Ron Evans Group to the Retro 2 Tour and in August to the Gifhorn Blues Festival. I really like this former station Gifhorn-Bienenbüttel which has been converted into an event location and music school. Volker Schlag runs his business […]
Yesterday evening we went again to the Kiste to Berlin-Hellersdorf in the east of the capital. I have been here with the Ron Evans Group in April 2016. In the Kiste there is a quite varied program, cinema, music, photo exhibitions on offer. Compared to Schmölln, the room has a completely different concept. On the […]
Today I am sitting in a hotel in downtown Berlin and writing down my impressions from yesterday evening. Otherwise the days will get mixed up during the reportage. I started the first part of the article after breakfast in Schmölln. There was the first stop of the tour. Last year the group played here already […]
Live again at the Village – the Ron Evans Group with a new line-up! On Saturday, 25th August 2018 it was time – the Group with Ron Evans (guitar, vocals), Rodney Harley (bass – with Ron in different formations since the 80s on the road), Rainer Blencke (guitar, vocals, saxophone, percussion – with the Group […]
