Who is more often in the Görlitzer Park or in the wall of the Park on the way, a mangy charm, in neukölln, körnerpark, as in a completely different city. Maybe like in Munich. To the Pomp of this town of Johannes Rögner of the three-headed feels anyway, meanwhile, in Berlin, sedentary Band chippy remembers when he looks at the well-maintained complex with the appearance of a castle Park. In Munich, the musician has lived with the eye-catching full beard last of all, before he moved nine years ago to Berlin.
may He Parks in General, he says. There are places, “where one comes to rest.” In addition, he was hung out, used in Parks for skateboarding. In the grains of the Park, he comes more often, his apartment is right in the vicinity. Also the small “Galerie Am Körnerpark” he could only recommend. Super Exhibitions. The latest, “Are you satisfied? Current art and Revolution“, which runs until the beginning of April, he had already seen and she was excellent.

Johannes Rögner comes, just like his band-mate Martin Steer, from the small Bavarian town of Geisenhausen, near Landshut. “Except for skating and music to make it not do as much,” he says. To the civil service, he took off to Munich, where it has now been 13 years, the Band fritten bude was established. Rögner is their singer and Rapper.
The fifth Frittenbude-Album is called “Red sun”
Munich still plays a role for the Band. At least as a place of memory. The three released their fifth Album released. It bears the title “Red sun“. This “for the love burning in us, as well as for the Revolution, should we all burn”, as Rögner, to put the point somewhat cryptically. But it is also a tribute to the eponymous Munich-based Club in which the members of the chippy used to dance.

to order “All in the Band love Techno,” he says, and the nights in the Red sun were unforgettable. Also in Berlin, he would like to go clubbing. The best nightlife download here the now closed city swimming pool had been a Wedding. But also in Friedrich Hainer “About Blank”.
The music from the chippy is a mixture of punk rock, Hip Hop and electronic music. Danceable Beats meet driving guitars and Rögner is singing his speech. In the category “Electro-Punk” is classified as this type of Sound. “The term I can’t really start so much,” says Rögner, “I would describe us simply as a punk band.”
“Papa” was the best chippy in Berlin
It goes from the grain Park, the Selkestraße along, and then in Thomas street. Next destination: the Tempelhofer field. From the small to the huge green area. And the way there Leads through a recreation area, by the Anita-Berber-Park. Before Rögner shows to the point where, in his opinion, the best chippy in Berlin was: “Papa”. Unfortunately now closed. The French fries have only cost 1,30 Euro. “Hot, greasy, not so snazzy and everyone can be what he is”, these are the associations which come to him in a chip shop to his taste. And these associations were also a key factor in the determination of the own band called been, he explains.

The Anita-Berber-Park is only a few years old, earlier the site was in the flight path of the former Tempelhof airport. The fenced-in approach lights between the many trees still remember.
There, where the Park is adjacent to the Hermann street, is a DHL packstation, which was sprayed from top to bottom with Graffiti. “This thing is a real phenomenon,” says Rögner, “it’s actually always broken.” Even now, as he goes past it, the pack station, obviously functional.
lower Bavaria was actually only out of fields and area
Then he finally stands in front of the seemingly endless Tempelhofer field. And is almost sentimental. Feelings of home. The sight reminded him of lower Bavaria “which is actually made only out of fields and areas.”
He was happy here, he says. To the place that reminded him a little of his Childhood. Occasionally he would turn his laps with the bike. And he is looking forward to spring, “as 5000 people can sit here and have a barbecue.”
Also, because a place like this, he moved from Munich to Berlin. Because you could feel free. “Here the police can be a rather alone. In Munich, the order office immediately, if You put a Beer in front of the door.“
As a member of a left-wing punk band, he just fits better into the liberal Berlin to Bavaria, he finds. And he can do it with the write-up, chippy was a left-wing Band, not so much to start. “We want to not let us as a political Band labels,” he explains, “in our Songs, it’s not only politics, but also just life itself.”
In the Columbiabad he would swim in the summer, some of the rounds
Where, for example, the piece “The darkness shall never prevail” on the new Album, in the against anti-Semitism, the identitarian movement, and what else, coming from the Right, clear edge. “But to be anti-fascist, this is simply a matter of course for me,” says the 37-year-old singer and songwriter, “so my mother brought me up.”
From the Tempelhofer field, he comes to the Columbia dam. In the Columbiabad, which has just closed, he swims in the summer, always a few rounds. All of the stations of the walk have something to do with leisure and pleasure, and so that you have to offer more in the summer than in the Winter, this is already striking.
Thus, the final point of the small round through Neukölln, the hare tavern in the Hasenheide. In the cold months of the year, the Café is brightly painted and looks like a Späti in the middle of the Park, only open on weekends. Just in the middle of the week, the place to be rather bleak. Except for a homeless man who has made it under the Canopy of the Bunny tavern is cozy, is no one here. In the summer, would sit around and drink a beer. Among them are also often the singer of the chippy.
