LOKALMATADORE - INTERVIEW
You are now playing the BTF for the umpteenth time. What draws you here every year and do you know how many times it is? This is the hottest of all festivities. It's not for nothing that we're here for the 15th time this year.
If you're there every year, do you have something of a ritual about this weekend? We do have a ritual, but it's too unsavory to mention To tell the public...
Imagine that you finally had a wish, which one could the BTF team grant? The BTF team knows our wishes exactly, and after that Divakollektiv 2014 they fulfill our next wish this year and get the big Fleshtones. More is not possible. The fans can become more female, but they're pretty great as it is. At least they have excellent taste.
35 years of local heroes. Who congratulated whom the most? Blüm and I (Fisch) congratulated Bubba and Rommel, they're just the only ones who've been around for so long.

RUNNING ORDER 2017!
So then, here is the announced running order for the Back To Future 2017!
Almost traditionally, we start a little later on Thursdays, but immediately furious. On Fridays you should be there quite early because we don't take any prisoners right from the start, and on Saturday morning we meet as usual to sing warm to karaoke in the forest pool. An excellent plan, we think.
The running order is available on the homepage in simple black and white as »DOWNLOAD - Service deluxe, so to speak!

MAID OF ACE - INTERVIEW
You are coming to us for the first time. Have you heard of us? On our tour in May we met a bunch of people who want to come. They told us it was going to be a nice dirty festival with a swimming pool bordering the grounds. That sounds exciting and we can't wait to meet you. See you on, around and in front of the stage.
Why is Hastings (the seaside town the band hails from) cooler than Brighton (famous British seaside resort near Hastings)? Hastings is way cooler because we have so many reasons to pull the town together and just party. For example, we have Pirate Day. Hastings is having a really good time.
Who is Aleister Crowley? He was an English poet, painter, author and tons of other things... To be honest, I just had to google this . Oh, and he died in Hastings. Happy man who.
Oh my, the youth: Aleister Crowley is the most well-known occultist of modern times! Anyway, are you happy to see certain colleagues? Yep, we're trying to see as many as possible. The Adicts are always fun, Acidez and of course The Restarts, but also a few others.

Why is it important to be skeptical? Everything in doubt must be questioned.
Are there situations in which it is better not to be skeptical?Exactly at the moment when we play "Deutschland halt's Maul" in the concert.

ES WAR MORD - INTERVIEW
The stupid question first: What was murder? It.
Aha, you smart guy. First comes your release show, next the BTF. Is that courage or serenity? Since there are no coincidences, there will probably be determination.
How important are the German-speaking eighties as a musical reminiscence for the band? In general not, because we live in the here and now. But since we are / were part of these reminiscences, it is difficult to answer this question. Just this much: We are still alive, even though it was murder.
How do you feel about being on stage with this band? You will certainly be able to answer yourselves after the concert.

FLEXFITZ - INTERVIEW
What do you know about the BTF? Colorful line-up, colorful people - and all of it in the middle of Saxony. As a band from Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, we really appreciate it when alternative music culture takes place not only in Berlin or Hamburg, but also in the provinces. In addition, the BTF together with the Resist To Exist is a real rock when it comes to the big punk festivals in Germany.
What does it mean for you to play here? We are very happy that we can take another big festival with us this summer and still have the opportunity to record our new album NEBEL | LEBEN (released June 23). And when we look at the line-up like that, we get really sentimental at times. There are a few bands with whom we grew up more than ten years ago through the legendary “Schlachtrufe BRD” sampler. It's a great thing how the BTF also closes musical circles.
You are a very political band. What message are you coming with? We have been experiencing an unmistakable shift to the right in Germany and Europe for several years. In the autumn, the AfD, a right-wing party with a sovereign faction strength, will move into the Bundestag. Punk in Germany today has to be more political than ever! If it is not a left counterculture that calls racism, homophobia and nationalism by their names, who is left in these times? It looks so sad. Accordingly, we are not really into the fact that punk unfortunately sometimes degenerates into postmodern folklore without political standpoints.
What connection do you have with Thomas von Loikaemie? A very good one. Thomas is a friend of our drummer Martin, that's where the wire comes from. The two met a number of years ago at the Force Attack. And since Thomas now lives in Rostock, you meet every now and then over a beer or at concerts. Even if we don't have much to do with Oi-Punk musically, Thomas always has good advice ready for us. Be it for our music or privately. Best regards and a thousand thanks for that!

LA FLINGUE - INTERVIEW
What can people expect who don't know you?
We can't say that exactly. Gaffa tape? Plastic bags? Wild drinking? Excessive insults? Bad German with a terrible accent? Hm, maybe it's better not to expect anything.
Finish this sentence: To us, playing music means ...
Nothing! When you start thinking about the music you're making, you run the risk of getting bored. Or maybe we're wrong. Hm, somehow we don't get to the point.
Okay, who are you happy to see?
Yeah, we're really looking forward to The Kids. But also New Bomb Turks. Olivier saw her six or seven times and was never disappointed. Someone we've heard good things about, but haven't seen yet, is Sniffing Glue. But best of all is meeting lots of old German pals.
Oh and while we're allowed to do a little promo: Next year we're going on a tour with our Peruvian friends from Morbo.
