 The ROCK-MUSEUM in Siegen, Germany, started an exhibition on September 8, 2010 which will last until October 1. The motto is FLY ME TO THE MOON and shows hundreds of things about Rock-Music and Space such as posters, photographs, records, record-sleeves etc. from all parts of the world. This, of course, meant that also The Spotnicks will have a part in this exhibition. My friend Erich Steuber from Hilchenbach had heard about this exhibition and made contact to the people who are running this museum. I borrowed them a number of posters, photographs, record-sleeves, buttons and also an old acoustic guitar which was signed by the Spotnicks. This led to an invitation for the opening night and I was there with my friend (and drummer in my own band) Klaus. It started with the official talks by the sponsors, the owner of the museum and also a journalist from a German rock magazine. From the Spotnicks they had included some of my posters and a glass box with records, buttons, CDs and a photo. I had brought with me the signed guitar which was shown and it will be put in a box in these days. The guitar was also shown in a newspaper article about the opening night. And, of course, there was a fantastic dinner with excellent wines. The food was named after well-known song names and band-names such as STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER for a strawberry-dessert
