Kultur in der Kirche


Keeping track of the European gigs of my two very favorite bands Bat for Lashes and Beirut, I noticed that both of them were playing in the same venue in Cologne: The Kulturkirche.
Since my sister lives close by neede a house sitter because she went off to India with her husband, the conditions were perfect for yet another internship.
Said - done, after an interview with the pastor, I started as assistant to the event technician. The very day before I started they hosted the Eins Live Radio Concert with the Arctic Monkeys!
It is an actual church that is still used as such. Only that there are massive speakers hanging from the walls, spotlights rigged high above the church benches and a bar in the back. And, of course, the stage. Sometimes, when there are too many concerts in a row and we do not have time to bump it out, they are having weddings and baptisms on stage.
A great lotta concerts and shows ahead, check out their programme and pay them a visit if you are around!
