BREAKING NEWS - NO LIVESTREAM FROM BTF
Due to the current standstill of (cultural) life, we are allowed a short update. Since we have not received any anxious inquiries so far, you seem to assess the situation in a similar way to us - keep calm for the time being.
Since nothing seems impossible at the moment, we are assuming a positive development in the next few weeks and months. A number of large festivals will take place before the BACK TO FUTURE and by then it should be easier to assess future developments. In the meantime, we are continuing to work on ensuring that your favorite festival can go off without a hitch this year and nobody has to follow a boring livestream. Tomorrow another batch of tickets will be sent to you. It's nice that you also keep your confidence.
In the coming weeks we will all miss some concerts (who's screaming "And where's the football?") That we have been looking forward to for a long time. It will be a real effort to maintain the infrastructure for our scene. But does the loudest woe also come from those who need it most? We don't have a magic bullet and quick decisions are quick decisions. Where do you see sensible points of attack and realistic possibilities?
For what we should use the concert-free time even more intensively, to think about how we want to shape our coexistence in the future. Perhaps the mantra "Faster, Farther, Higher" should eventually pay off positively for people and the environment...

PISSE - THE BAND
Last year the catch-up concert didn't cut it, but this one did. Pisse come by for assembly work. We are not sure to what extent they are really whipped by disgust and make low music for a dishonorable audience. Especially with our audience! Anyway, let's say: comfortably tight.

BABY SHAKES - PUNKIGER SUNSHINE POWERPOP
Baby Shakes from New York, with their punk power pop, which has been sun-ripened for around 15 years, are a perfect match for us and our Rockaway Beach called Waldbad. These are easy, fluffy melodies that you should wear sun protection factor 50 for if you don't want to risk animal sunburn. Warm welcome!

ERROR SNIFFS - FINEST 77S
Since we think it's important to support younger and not too well-known bands, we make sure to do justice to this point every year. In this context, we would like to introduce you to Error Sniffs in 2020, who play gaudy punk rock, founded in 2016 and specify Erfurt as their place of origin.

VERY FINEST DARK-POPPUNK - THE LILLINGTONS
At first they were very Ramonesque old-school poppers, in 2017 they came back as dark poppers with the album "Stella Sapiente" and landed a real mega-hit with it. We are really excited that we can confirm The Lillingtons for 2020 and that as the only Schland festival show ever.
Our Facebook flitz beeper is constantly whistling the songs to us as weirdly as possible out of sheer joy. Hopefully it will be July soon so that this ends!

SCREECHING WEASEL, RIVERDALES,... - THE METHADONES
Although The Methadones musically differ a little from the Ramonesque sound of the two bands around front man Ben Weasel, there is this direct connection. The guys from Chicago were invited to the Punk Rock Raduno Festival in Italy and we were able to persuade them to give a second concert on European soil. Here we go!

L.A. MACHINA
We didn't really know L.A. Machina by name, but we were convinced when we found out more about their souund and past. We stumbled upon THE DOLLYROTS, VIVET, DEATH VALLEY GIRLS or THE DARTS . And to complete the name dropping: they also gamble at the Punk Rock Bowling and Music Festival, then the band also fits in perfectly with us.
