Heilig in Heidelberg

• Lambchop

• Heilig

I went to Germany on a business trip. I arrived on the morning of March 16 and did my ritual of checking into the hotel early in the AM, napping and making myself get up around 1 or 2pm, showering and then walking around the city. I walked to the music shop Vinyl Only to see if I could find some records for Terry. When I got there I saw a poster for Lambchop playing that night at the big church in the Heidelberg Church. They were going to be playing with a string quartet from Krakow Poland. I was so tired, but called Terry to get his opinion. I had walked half-way street when Terry talked me into going. I went back to Vinyl Only and got my ticket. The show was beautiful even if a little odd for this southern girl to buy a beer while watching a band in a church. After the show Kurt Wagner sat out front and for 1 Euro would glance at you, then draw a portrait. I have mine in the buffet in the dining room. I then said hello in my best Tennessee accent, it was a funny little conversation though I’m not really sure what I said other than I used to shop at Mary’s shop in college (Lucy’s Records) and loved the Migraine Matinees.
