OFF: Burg Herzberg

[K Henderson]

Hi Folks...

Is anyone here planning to go this event?  So many excellent bands!  I've
seen a rumour that this may be the last one...is that true?  If so, I'm
going to do my best to make it over, esp. given no outdoor Strange Daze
(apparently, a travelling indoor show w/ MQB and Harvey is all Jim is
planning).  Sadly, it seems Guru Guru has been dropped from the bill, but
then they've added Magma, the Ozrics, and Korai Orom so it's really becoming
too good to pass up!!

I know this place is near Frankfurt, but how easy is it to get there from
the airport w/o a car?  Could I hop on a train and get within reasonable
hiking distance (< 5 miles) from the campgrounds?

P.S.  Doug...what are Pretty Things like these days?  I only have SFSorrow
and another disc from c. 1975 (?)...do they have any recent stuff that I
should hear before seeing them?
