August 2nd

Before we went to have dinner at Nomiya with my sister whose birthday it is today, M. and I went to the coolest record shop in München, Optimal. They were having a street party with the band BrassBanda (out on Trikont Records, the old home of the Resisters and many other off-beam, leftie and global bands)

and we bumped into a series of friends.

Here is Ulla, for example.

Munich still in party mood, the bridges full of bands, stalls, buskers and instant beer-gardens, everyone seems to be either milling about or sitting outside food stations.
