A concert review by Karsten Wagner:

We arrive in the small town Gehrden near Hannover very early. In the hotel Katrin and I meet the bands who had performed here yesterday, including Suzi Quatro and Showaddywaddy.
While the other bands leave the hotel, we wait for SAILOR. A short time later some other SAILOR-fans join us: Sabine and her daughter Cilia, Marina and her family (Michael and Michaela).
SAILOR arrive at the hotel one hour later. We show the new SAILOR "greatest hits" CD that was released by Sony a few weeks ago. Georg and Phil both decide to buy one of those CDs from us because they did not know anything about the release of this compilation which also includes songs from the 1980 "Dressed For Drowning" album.
Georg has very much luggage, so that I help him to bring the guitar and all his other bags into the hotel.
Later Katrin and myself drive to the festival tent where the Oldie night is going to take place by following the guy with the Nickelodeon-car.
Now it is time for the soundcheck. The SAILOR guys are very hungry and don't have any time to eat, so that the fans Cilia and Michaela have to feed Grant with their pizza (see photo on the left).
We stand in the first row together with all the other SAILOR fans: Norbert, Christel, Inka, Claudia, Marina, Michael, Michaela, Manuela, Magret, Sabine, Cilia and Tobias... SAILORs show is absolutely great, especially their special perfect version of "Traffic Jam" and "Two Ladies On The Corner" with Henry on a small extra keyboard, Phil with a bass-guitar and Grant on a new drum-construction developed by Georg.
Grant's wife Michelle is there too. She is so kind to record a special video for Katrin and me (absolutely wonderful!!).
After the concert some funny things happen:
The cook of the hotel asks me for an autograph because he thinks I am Georg Kajanus.
Georg and his girl-friend Barbie ask me: "Where did you buy your new captains-cap?" I tell them that I discovered it at a second-hand market in our hometown Kassel.
