WER IST DAS?

1999

Recorded live in October 1998 at the Prater Biergarten in Berlin. We pre-gave-away tickets for three unplugged shows to a frantic audience. And unplugged meant just that: no amps, no microphones, not even for the rare vocal performance. Includes one of our all time favourites “Saragina Rumba”.
