DR. MARK BENECKE: WGT Diary 2022 (31/60) – Hell? Maggots? Honey? (3/3)

Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.

There is emptiness in the agra between two events. DJ Elvis appears out of nowhere. Unrecognizable: Instead of the white DJ shirt this time in more than neat classic outfit. What happened? Elvis: “My mother saw the picture from yesterday and then she told me off: ‘Get dressed properly, son, or you’ll get a few! … Then I did that. But actually it’s like this, it’s the day of cultivated music for me. It’s one of my favorite days at the WGT. With VNV Nation as the closing act. I need an outfit that goes with the cigar, and that’s what I went for.” Mark: “We don’t want to hide the fact that Welle: Erdball is also performing, and Elvis and I may even announce from the stage these two exceptionally good bands that almost everyone likes.” Elvis: “Yeah, and Rotersand probably too!” Mark: “Now you’re going to see me get rolled in here…. What’s the most important thing to know when you go on stage in front of a huge black crowd like this?” Elvis: “Have fun! Seeing the people! Being pleased! It’s fantastic, the smiles from the audience… that’s so pleased, I always have to grin. My grin might look silly sometimes, but you’re really pleased. That’s inner peace.” Mark: “We suck out people’s smiles like bees and give them back like honey.” (Text & photos: Mark Benecke)
