THANK YOU, that was amazing!

Maybe we will always contact you a little later than other festivals with a short water level report. However, this is not because we were in a coma for two days, but rather cleaned up, dismantled and sweated with dozens of helping hands. And that after six energy-sapping days of construction, three eventful days of the festival with you and only a handful of hours of sleep.

But hopefully the words of thanks will reach you even with this little delay. A huge thank you goes to all those who are now removing all the legacies of such a grandiose celebration with us - anyone can celebrate ;-). Furthermore, those who made sure that no throat remained dry, eaten really tasty in between and both could be disposed of in a clean toilet. The best music was listened to, sheltered sleeping, celebrating and bathing. In addition, those who put the festival in the right light in the run-up to and during the festival and thus made a lot of people aware of our hand-picked line-up.

And with that we are with you. One or the other may have noticed. Your interest surprised us a little - THANK YOU! Thank you for tackling hundreds, if not thousands of kilometers and arranging for the space available. The Back To Future went off in such an orderly manner and despite the short interruption and the associated evacuation of the area you were so understanding and celebrating LOIKAEMIE so mercilessly afterwards. In the planning phase, of course, you also think through such situations and hope they never arise. Honest? The fact that the evacuation of the site went so smoothly due to the dangerous weather situation was not even close to our plan. You are amazing.

Hopefully we'll all see you on 16./17./18. July 2020 healthy again!

CLOWNS INSTEAD OF ALARMSIGNAL

Sure, it's the way of things, but when it comes unannounced, as in this case, it hurts all the more. We are wordless, speechless and at heart with the band. Unfortunately, there is no alarm signal. With tears in our eyes we look forward to clowns!

INFO ABOUT GRILLING

Following consultation and statements from the authorities, the following information about camping:

!!! GRILLING IS ALLOWED AT THE WEEKEND !!!

Use grills, charcoal on grass is not an option! If you have a camping stove at the start, you can also use it and pamper yourself and your tent neighbors with culinary delights. Open fires, i.e. anything similar to a campfire, is prohibited. We think it's a good compromise.

The drinking water situation on the camping area remains tense. Unfortunately there is only running water. If you need drinking water, you should pack a reserve or you can get supplies in the forest pool.

Otherwise it looks almost sensational in terms of the weather. Optimal drinking, bathing and sleeping temperatures. Top go-around conditions, what?

PASCOW IN THE BTF CHECK

Musically a board, outstanding in terms of content, the power on stage and smart guys apart from that. Here is the BTF check from PASCOW with P from Gimbweiler with G, you fuckers!

When you received our request, what was the first thing you connected with it? So with the BTF. Swen: Since our last time at BTF, I keep remembering how we saw the first song of the gig. Is even documented on Lost Homesickness; For everybody who's interested. Alex: Feels like me. This is our BTF trauma. Apart from that, we actually always wanted to go swimming in the lake, which we haven't managed to date. But this year we'll be there early and if the weather is right, we'll be in.

What does punk rock wellness mean to you? Swen: Apart from going on stage and playing a concert, you don't have to worry about anything. If it can still be in the idyll of the BTF: perfect. Alex: For me it is more of a contradiction, but I would like to let you convince me of the opposite.

Which bands are you looking forward to as fans or interested parties? Swen: To Marky Ramone and The Briefs. Unfortunately, they don't play on the same day. Otherwise I generally like to watch bands and look forward to the alarm signal. I have fond memories of them. Sympathetic band, not only because Bulli is involved.
Alex: I'm also looking forward to the alarm signal and Cockney rejects. I would also like to see The Bar Stool Preachers live. The negative approach is a classic, so I'm a little afraid that my expectations might be too high. The dead crack whores in the trunk are also usually very entertaining and I also find Egotronic with the band very good.

How would you describe the Back To Future to an ignorant person? Swen: Who Fancy bathing fun with punk rock, you can relax here with lots of nice people. We will definitely do that. Alex: There are fewer and fewer real punk rock festivals and the Back To Future is solid here. Both in terms of the line-up, the concept and the audience. I like it. And when the scene “shrinks back to health”, then a festival like Back To Future can happily remain a constant

Finally: tell a joke. Swen: Weiste watt? The cow shits flat. Alex: As you can see, we are way ahead when it comes to jokes! But don't worry, if you take Swen's butts off while drunk, he'll be funny.

INFORMATION

Already in the 1990s there was a cool gang in Glaubitz that started to organize concerts at the riding arena. One of these pioneers is Rene Schieritz, who runs a drinks shop with a cozy seating area around 500 meters from the campsite, in Nordgässchen 4.

Original sound from a crew member: "This is the last surviving punk rock still in Glaubitz". This is open for you on Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Those who want to relax with coffee, beer, sausage and sandwiches will be happy to stop by.

INFORMATION

Sustainability and nature conservation have always been important to us. In addition, our tent meadows are home to horses for most of the year. Therefore, please urgently adhere to the following rules - there will still be car controls for the incorrigible:

There is no barbecue, no fire, no glass (not even in the forest pool) and yours must be disposed of on the tent site Garbage. You can get sacks from us. Since you need the short nights to sleep, we do not tolerate any aggregates.

piy-btf-SHORT CHECK

How do we start Saturday? Yes, with a highlight that everyone can contribute to its uniqueness. Come and sing with PIY - punk rock karaoke. But now first the BTF short check.

How would you describe the BTF visitors? A bunch of crazy drinking chaots who prefer to let the sun roast on their stomachs with loud bangs in ominous forest baths. Good people.

And what about the location where you perform every year? It's a forest bath. We don't have a stage. We let people scream and drink schnapps at noon at 30 degrees, right next to a pool that is up to 6 meters deep. Beautiful!

What is the favorite song at BTF? What's the worst ?!

How could the BTF be made even better? Direct festival site connection to the outdoor pool with a water slide from the main stage directly into the pond, beer self-shooting facilities in and around the site, cotton candy.

Which Saturday opener on the festival site did you miss and are you annoyed about it? Terror fat. Unfortunately, we played them down last year because we had mercilessly overdone in the forest pool! After a quick look at the organizer's carotid artery, we stopped and were able to watch the last riffs from afar while dismantling - sounded promising! Invite them back!
