Trier, 20h30,
Headlights is an indie rock band
from Champaign, Illinois. The band
was formed following the dissolution
of Absinthe Blind, when members
Erin Fein, Seth Fein and Brett
Sanderson formed a band named
Orphans. It was only when Tristan
Wraight started writing songs with
Fein that Headlights was formed.
Headlights released The Enemies
EP in 2004, and followed that up
in 2006 with a split single with
Canadian indie rock band The Most
Serene Republic. Later in 2006, the
band released their debut album, Kill
Them With Kindness. Synthie pop
mixed with thoughtful melodies.

Multi-faceted American jazz
trumpeter Randy Brecker has
always had his roots in jazz, but
delivers music that is full of stylistic
variation from bop to pop, from
funk to fusion. Another star of the
international jazz scene is Claudio
Roditi, a master of Latin Bebop.
Andrea Tofanelli is one of the most
successful Latin pop trumpeters
on the scene (Luciano Pavarotti,
Jovanotti, Adriano Celentano,...)
and Ernie Hammes, Luxembourg’s
virtuoso trumpeter and flugelhorn
player, has long been one of the big
names in the local jazz scene. This
unique meeting of four star soloists
from different genres promises to be
an explosive virtuoso performance
of specially arranged standards and
original compositions.

The Folk-Clupp Lëtzebuerg, in
collaboration with the Kulturfabrik
Esch, presents Trio Rouge: Lucilla
Galeazzi (vocals), Michel Godard
(tuba), and Vincent Courtois (cello).
In the tradition of Italian singing,
the “cancione” would be too
restrictive a classification-their scope
ranges from tender love songs to
improvisations to stirring pieces of
revolt from the Great War. The band
leader is singer Lucilla Galeazzi,
born in Italy, with a passion for music
from her roots.

24 55 51, 20h30, FREE,
The first edition of ‘Open Mic’, an
evening of free musical expression,
took place on 14 December. It was
a great success and Rockhalcafé
was already full at 22h. This first
edition proved 3 things to us: 1)
that a curious and interested public
existed for this kind of evening, 2)
that a good few rappers, slammers
and other Hip Hop fans have
well and truly taken hold of the
country’s microphones, 3) that our
Rockhalcafé is the ideal venue for
this event. Two members of the
band, Uranami, will take care of the
evening’s entertainment.

Sour is anything but a side project.
Stone Sour have established
themselves as a multi-faceted hard

the contemporary edgy electronic
production of Detroit or Berlin, the
pop of Prince and Roxy Music,
the electronic howl of Cabaret
Voltaire, the emotional clarity of
Curtis Mayfield or the weirdness

hipshaking beats, grimy riffs, dirty

on vodka”. Here comes the new
German underground popduo
Planetakis-Sugarcandy pop to highly

Pontes is one of the most famous

with a mournful cry, other times in
a hallucinatory staccato, but in any

Portuguese music of melancholy
that the late Amalia Rodrigues
introduced to international ears.

Trier, 20h, €18/€21,
Hans Söllner is a German singer
and songwriter whose earlier works
were mostly humorous (and often
insulting). His criticisms (of the
political system) and marijuana
smoking have led to repeatedly high
fining. More recent work includes
serious reggae tunes sung in the
Bavarian dialect. He has over 20
albums under his Rastafarian belt
and has been playing with Austrian
reggae group Bayaman Siss’Dem
(formerly The Buccaneers) since

Solaar’s milestone albums and
various tracks with their friends and

Crecy. In combination Cassius are
among the most successful outfits
currently operating both in France

Münster, 26 20 52-1, Mon-Sun

Being left-handed is the most
ordinary and natural of differences,
yet over the centuries it has been
the cause of discrimination, injustice,
oppression, and rejection. The
Neumünster Abbey Cultural Centre
(CCRN) will host an exhibition
devoted to this astonishing fact.
While left-handers are no longer
forced to use their right hands
at school, it is still the case that
most technology is designed with
right-handers in mind. Yet it has
been demonstrated that while the
left hemisphere of the brain – the
seat of rational thinking – is more
developed in right-handers, the right
hemisphere – the seat of imaginative
thinking – is more powerful in
left-handers. This event will feature
exhibitions, conferences, concerts,
and children’s workshops.

‘During my first visit to Japan in

word that I had to know before
visiting Japan. The thin vocabulary
of about 150 words that I managed
to scrape together had to do almost
exclusively with an exotic and
imaginary Japan, or a consumable
Japan… with eating Japanese food,
Japan at war, Japanese pop culture,
the Japanese art and fashion worlds,
and, overwhelmingly, with dozens of
Japanese brand names. I asked five
Japanese-speakers to improvise a
series of scenes from daily life, using
my primitive foreigner’s Japanese.’

Elusive and little known, Tziganes
or Gypsies evoke many confused
feelings: fear, fascination... The
conditions of their appearance in
Europe, their ancestry and culture,
their beliefs and day-to-day lives,
how they appear (or don’t) in
history, all create a place for them
in our society as the ‘Others’. The
identity that we give them is full of
prejudice and stereotyping, which
is characteristic of how we classify
cultures alien to us. Through a series
of original objects from everyday
life, documents and archives, works
of art and films, we discover the
world of the Tzigane, complete with
interactive media.

After their successful production
of The Changeling last season,
Cheek by Jowl return to wow us
with the remaining play in their cycle
of Shakespeare’s four romances
after Pericles (1983), The Tempest
(1988) and The Winter’s Tale (1997)
- although some critics prefer to
class Cymbeline as a comedy. The
namesake and main character,
Cymbeline, is based on a true British
chieftan, Cunobelinus, who ruled
before Roman times. Imogen is one
of the few great Shakesperian roles
for a woman. This ‘problem play’
encompasses scenes which are very

package (www.show.lu). €101,
€35/€40/€45,
The legendary Shaolin monastery
is considered as the place of origin
of all Chinese martial arts, called
Wushu. About 1,500 years ago,
the monk Ta Bo, also known as
Bodhidharma, settled over there
and developed the ‘18 techniques
of Buddha’s followers’, based upon
24 external and internal muscle
exercises ensuring the physical
training of the monks before and
during the long meditation periods.
‘The Masters of Shaolin Kung Fu’
come from the heart of the province
of Hen-an, where the Shaolin
monastery still exists, at the foot of
the holy mountain of Song Shan.
Being at present the sole production
from the Shaolin district, they really
feel under the obligation to respect
the pure teaching of the Wushu arts.
A great number of grand masters
and national champions are now on
tour in Europe – as ambassadors
of Kung Fu teaching – with a
really sensational show especially
conceived for Russia’s president
Putin. After a long break, the original
production ‘ The Gala of the Masters’
is again on tour in Europe, with a
completely new and very lavish
show. They give an insight into
the Confucian doctrine, but they
also present breathtaking Qi-Gong
exercises such as ‘The flying needle’
or ‘The bed of nails’. The unified
whole formed by the body and the
spirit is presented in an explicit and
understandable way through this
impressive show.

Satyre, the Greek statue that was
recovered by fishermen from the
ocean depths of Sicily. For this
extraordinary piece about arid land,
desire and life, he has collaborated

minutes. Each session will focus on
illustration, photography or graphic
design, either by professionals or
by students, and offers a chance

their work if they so desire. The
“Room with a View” is a temporary
magazine store and library set up
in the stunning “aquarium” of the
Casino Luxembourg - forum d’art

Bistrot littéraire “Belles
Roumanies 2007”
KulturFabric, Esch
Literary event on Romanian poetry
with Ana Blandiana, Emil Brumaru
and Pierre Joris (Luxembourgish
guest) and Alexandru Calinescu
moderating. Ana Blandiana was
born in 1942 near to Timisoara,
and now lives in Bucharest. After
the publication of her first poem,
she was denounced as a “daughter
of the enemy of the people” and
therefore lost her right to further
education for 4 years and to publish
further works. In 1964, she published
her first works of poetry and enjoyed
immediate success due to her ability
to write in a pure and simple style
about subjects such as death and
survival, and desirous love. Born
in 1939, in Soviet Moldova, Emil
Brumaru, medically trained, has
been dedicated to writing poetry
for many years. His 1st poetry
volume was published in 1970,
systematically eluding communist
censureship, with a baroque style
and provocative humour. His poetry
is ingenious, with erotic symbolism
which penetrates daily life. He is
one of the most important and little
known poets of Romania. Pierre
Joris left Luxembourg at the age
of 19 and has since resided in
England, Algeria, France and the
USA. He has published over 20
poetry compendiums incuding some
in French. He has made many
translations into French and into
English, and has published with
Jérôme Rothenberg, an anthology
of 2 volumes of avant-garde poetry
which spans the 20th century from
the world over. Since1992, he
has been teaching at New York
University in Albany.

A low budget cult classic with a

part as a masochistic dental patient.
Every scene was shot in a single
take and the whole film took just
3 days to shoot. It’s the story of a
sad-looking droopy-leaved plant
- called “Little Audrey” after owner
Seymour’s object of affection - that
is until he discovers its penchant for
human blood. And once our Audrey
has the taste, it isn’t satisfied with
bleeding Seymour into an anaemic
state. “Feed me More!” Seymour is
given the choice between loads of
money but feeding his plant body
parts, or coming clean… The tangled
plot thickens as the man-eating plant
continues to attract attention - and
dollars - all the while getting fatter. “I
didn’t mean it!” Whoever does? EN

While many people enjoy the return of certain trends and feel a sense of
nostalgia when seeing their favourite team sporting shirts that are a throwback
to past seasons, one trend that most football supporters would have been glad
to see the last of is hooliganism.
At last summer’s World Cup in Germany, organisers impressed with a
tournament under the banner “A time to make friends”. They had kept violent
confrontations to a minimum with a zero tolerance policy and had worked
closely with other European police forces. So, it is ironic that after all their hard
work the resurfacing of hooliganism should begin in Germany. To add insult to
injury, the main culprits are based in one of the host cities. Over the past few
months, fans of Lok Leipzig and other lower league clubs have seized matches
as opportunities to destroy stadiums and go on violent rampages through the
towns of opposing teams. All these incidences have culminated in the events
that unfolded in February, which saw 800 fans clash with riot police ending in
36 police officers in hospital.
Despite this, there are prominent people in German football who do not
believe that hooliganism is a threat to the federation. One Bundesliga manager
argued that larger incidents have so far been isolated to Eastern Germany and
confined to lower league encounters. Further suggesting that the problems are
born out of the economic difficulties that much of the region faces, rather than
a change for the worse within the football fan bases.
But, the situation in Italy tells a different story. Here, violence in and around
stadiums during Series A games has grown in such a way that the interior
minister has intervened in forcing clubs to deal with the problem. The fact that
most of the troublemakers, the ‘Ultras’ groups, are funded by the clubs
themselves has not been ignored. The Italian clubs have, until now, allowed
these fans to police the area of the ground, which they ‘own’ themselves, this
has led to flares, missiles and on one occasion a moped to be thrown during
matches. The government has now imposed strict new security regulations on
clubs, which if not met will mean they will be forced to play games behind
closed doors. Many clubs have argued that it will take them months until their
stadiums conform to the new rules, but the government will not give in.
Months of supporter violence culminated in the death of a policeman when a
firebomb was thrown into his car.
An empty stadium until safety can be assured is a small price to pay as
punishment for the death a police officer.
And on a lighter note…
Our boys, in Luxembourg, have finally done it. After almost 12 gruelling years
the national football team has won an official match. Around 800 fans braved
the cold in Hesperange to witness the Red Lions come back from 1 – 0 down
at half time to defeat Gambia 2 – 1 in a friendly in preparation for the upcoming
European qualifier against Belarus.
Luxembourg v Belarus will be at the Stade Josy Barthel, route d’Arlon,
Luxembourg, 24th March,17h.
