We are very sad to hear that Christoph “Chrigi” Kessler has passed away yesterday. We knew him as the founder of the great Black Bush Connexion and organizer of the Highland Games Fehraltorf in Switzerland: one of our favorite festivals, where we have enjoyed performing for years. We wish his family and friends a lot of strength in these difficult times. Be easy and free, Chrigi.

Visiting a Scouting Group – Rapalje Show 90

Posted on by David Myles

David and Maceál visit Scouting Group “De Havik” in Ommen, the Netherlands.

We had a lovely dinner with “stamppot”: Potatoes, carrots, union and sausages.

We learned what scouts do on a day like this: making things from wood and rope, play games, run, run and run, sing songs around the campfire

And we got a nice cup of coffee made with electricity in stead of wood-fire..

Fishing with Musicians – Rapalje Show 89

Posted on by David Myles

Good evening and we’re live again at the Meister’s Forellenhof

http://www.meisters-forellenhof.de

It’s a beautiful place. Also to take a stroll in the evening. Just for a night walk or whatever. And we got a beautiful sunset

So we are going fishing for trout

It’s been a long time since I’ve been fishing, about 20 – 30 years

When I don’t got nothing to do I come here Just for rest

Normally I don’t got nothing. I don’t even need bait. I don’t hook the fish up. But, if I’m hungry, then it’s trout alarm

Then I’m coming with my special bait. I fish with worms and fake bait

And when we catch something. What are we going to do with it? Going to eat it! You kill it, I grill it

We look like real fisher men. Specially William with the beard

When we say in German: “Petri heil”. Means “Good luck for fishing” in German

If children what to fish here they have to do a 2 days course. To learn how to fish and to remove a hook from a fish mouth. Because it can be very painful. And how to kill a fish as well. If you want to eat him. Otherwise you throw him back and let him free

Fishermen always telling stories about these things. What the best bait is and whatever. But believe me. There’s no best bait. And there’s no good fishermen. There’s just stupid fish who bites in the bait

We are very good for the animals. We’re not a threat for animals at all. Maybe we will be vegetarians some day. We never catch animals. Vegetarians are only bad hunters
