FREE BEER alert for south-central Berlin …

just a quick post to announce the first exciting thing on my new blog:

Alaska vegan-bar opening with big bäng and #FreeBeer!!! in Berlin south-sentral : Reuterstr. 85, Berlin-Neukölln, the free beer i believe will be consumed sometime shortly after 20hrs … #FirstComeFirstServed !!! i have afeeling there maybe some #tapas there too… http://heyevent.de/venue/1618047978429763

the foto is an anecdote i associate with free beers in neukölln … this was in the früperle bar sometime in 2009 for i think a double birthday of Miriam W. and someone i cant remember – another memory was a great live performance of the great manouche-gypsy-swing band the Shoeswing Stringers! – and i shall add i did play a lot of records that glorious night too …

Valentino-45.com finally goes online ….

hello! – here i am – where are you ? like my site already? no? ok – “spass beiseite” (humor aside) as we say here in germany

i am here to have a piece of the online pie and share, learn and link and yeah sell my philosophy…

i am primarily concerned with keeping the funk alive and having some fun here on my own site!
i live and work in berlin where i have engage in a variety of things including guiding people through town n pedicabs, rikshaws or biketaxi as we call them here, besiddes i have a soft spot for vinyl and music .. viniyl cause i also do a lot of collecting dj’ing and promoting of parties: for one there is the klunkerkranich where i curate a the program one sunday a month and the “deine mudda iss disco” party series at kaffee burger every second thursday. besides that i do a variety of gigs in and around town and host the funk freaks dj crew once a year here in berlin.

i will also be reporting on interesting developments on the musical side here which may be a record review or artist feature, or post some random stuff or even weird and funny stuff to help people broaden their horizon through objective insight and irony. i will also want to feature topics here which are social/worldview in nature … but more on that later…

for now thanks for having found me and shoot me some digital love or any kind of feedback: i reckon i can handle it 😉
