October 30, 1981

Didn't do anything. No that's not true, we made up a song.

October 29, 1981✝

Never expect anything to remain permanent, because nothin' is. Nothin' is.

October 28, 1981✝

Today we practiced with Ritchie, but now the magic is gone, it's Ritchie's own fault. I learned what I can from Ritchie. [That is one of the biggest lies that I have ever told myself. I could play with Ritchie for 20 years and probably still not be able to do what he could do. I was a hurt boy, who didn't understand the music business. Ritchie was and still remains one of the most substantial motivators in my creative life. Love ya' Klaus (Ritchie).]

October 27, 1981✝

...but today it was with Gundy (Keller)....

October 26, 1981✝

Today Ritchie played in a session (with somebody else). I wonder if anyone is gonna' get burnt. I wonder if it'll be me. I just don't, SH**!

October 25, 1981✝

...and it keeps on boilin' and nobody know which pot it's boilin' in.

October 24, 1981✝

No practice. The Ritchie stew is boilin' up.

October 23, 1981

Walldürn! [a little town in a German forest] [Concert] I played a lot of mistakes, but had fun anyway, a different kind of fund. I don't know how to explain it.

October 22, 1981✝

No Practice. And somedays we all must pay the price. Rock and Roll is ever changin' and there are never rules. (Das Spiel) [The Game}.

October 21, 1981

Today we Practiced, it was fun, very fun, yeaaa. I wrote a song called "For You" , it's pretty good.

October 20, 1981✝

Another day without practice. We have a little problem with Ritchie's attitude.

October 19, 1981✝

Well Franz didn't come back from the states (on the date that he promised). Today actually he leave Calf. on the 19th. No practice.

October 18, 1981✝

Time flies when you don't do anything.

October 17, 1981✝

Nothing interesting.

October 16, 1981✝

Nix today either.

October 15, 1981✝

No practice. Nothing was done.

October 14, 1981✝

Ya? I cleaned Helga's house today. It's a boring job and I hate the work. Ya? Ya!

October 13, 1981✝

Stayed in A-burg. Hope we practice soon.

October 12, 1981✝

No practice, but some good personal practice. I get off on it.

October 11, 1981✝

On year since our First gig. Happy Birthday Stampede. I didn't forget. Today, I practiced bass, mostly scales, but I have fun from only scales. I could do 'em all day.

October 10, 1981✝

Still haven't done any group practice in quite a while. I wish the group would practice more often together, but Ritchie thinks it's better if everybody works on their own instrument.

October 9, 1981✝

I'm gonna' start work by cleaning Helga's house every Mittwoch [Wednesday]. No practice [today], I have to find a new house soon in A-burg, Oh, well.

October 8, 1981✝

Today Franz went to California. I can't write anymore, gotta' let my head relax.

October 7, 1981✝

I didn't stay in Laufach (Lexel's home) today. I got some problems with where I shall live. [what's up with use of language?]

October 6, 1981✝

What are we gonna' do, yea!!! No practice, oh F***, personal practice. I oughta' try it.

October 5, 1981✝

I put my bass equipment together. We found someone to cosign for our loan that we want. Lexel thinks there's a lot goin' on, he can feel some kind of underlying energy. It has him in a good mood and that's very good.
