Snapshots From The Road:July 6th, 1997 at the Daytona-Europe Festival 7 snapshots from Lahr and 3 from a day off in Munich.. please be patient while they load We left San Francisco on Saturday afternoon, July 5th, and flew non-stop to Frankfurt, Germany. As a result of the northbound flight path that the pilot took, the sun was up for the entire flight, and we landed at 10:30 am the morning of July 6th. After a (rather speedy) 2 hour ride on one of Germany's many Autobahn's, we spent a brief 45 minutes at the hotel, then it was off to the festival site to play our show.....jet lag, anyone? |
The Daytona-Europe Festival was sponsored by SWF3, one of Germany's largest broadcasting facilities. |
![]() The festival was promoted well, and a large crowd attended. The sound & lighting tower is pictured at the top right. |
A camera crew was sent from SWF3 television. The interview they conducted with us aired the next day. |
Our show immediately preceded a performance by Emerson, Lake, & Palmer. Despite the severe jet lag, we stayed on site and listened to their set. Here are some pictures as shot backstage and from stage right:
Michael Wilk and Keith Emerson. |
