Normally, the carnival reporters somewhere in the back room and watch the revelry on stage at the beginning. But on this carnival Saturday it's different. He sits at the meeting of the pomp KG Blue White Altenhof in the very front and experience the action on stage from behind. An unusual but very appealing prospect.
of the eleven council stands, one can observe above all the leg work of the dancers and of Tollitäten particularly well and also amazed at what they conjure up a show to a mere four-by-eight-meter-wide stage. With all respect, even before the revelers, who built the stage in several days of work. In the eleven Council grandstand you can feel every step that is danced on the stage, whether you sit on his little folding chair and just stands. It has therefore, automatically the rhythm in the body, at the one in this discussion.
Speaking of rhythm. The most important rule you learn as Elferrat very quickly. All or none!. As an eighth Elferrat one must not only of what's happening on stage and in the hall, but also to his colleagues. Getting up set, with his hands to heaven, clapping, swaying and singing. Everything happens synchronously on the narrow Elfer Council stands, almost by itself is called group dynamics.
And while the usual carnival reporters ever sit back comfortably, he Elferrat as always at the height of his foolish events and participate. As Elferrat we supposed to be a model for the revelers dancing in the hall and not as fun of brake line. The
this Ago to almost 100 percent of the costumed audience Elferrat which lays only dimly. Here and there you guessed in only a few candles lit room one or the other cowboy, clown or cap carrier.
The Elferrat of the press has created to celebrate the day a colorful jester's cap and the Order of the Prince and the pair of KG blue and white, it has been awarded during the session. Sitting in on a pure road Civil Penalty Council grandstand or stand would be foolish indeed considered to be almost naked.
The red fabric noses, missing the penalty Tollitäten the boards straight to the beginning of the ceremonial meeting, they stand to remind them of their obligations as a mood-maker them well. However, this can be regarded carnival fun accessories make for their support is a mixed blessing dar. For as long as you have them sit on the nose, one can only breathe through your mouth and off.
A definite pleasure on this evening, the dancers and musicians of the KG blue and white, which will ensure with their colleagues from the Neukirchener dancing bees, an indescribably feminine men dance ballet, or just over 50 musicians and dancers of the Aachen KG Eulenspiegel just for atmosphere, as ventriloquist Peter Moreno and the Funky Marys from Cologne.
The mood singers from the Rhine, the penalty can not simply sit on boards behind him, but take it as a sing-along border and mitschunkelnde Back Round Boys from their stand down. Press can not. Join For Elfer Council is the first duty. Thank God the stage-proven Blue & White President Thomas Strassmann be at the behest of the five nifty ladies from the cathedral city of even a dance solo lie down on the stage floor. Sometimes it's nice when a Elferrat in the front row, but not at the forefront. But it must also then the president of the Women's distinguished Bütz with the company and orders. The privilege of a president. Man is happy. Strassmann, the President handled alternately at his place with scepter, microphone and program notes, is just a real carnival professional. This is also when the late Neukirchener bees dance and he skillfully the gap program with a self-sung pop round: "Hey, what's up, we party all night." skillfully plays on without crashes that the mood in the room.
all night to celebrate the blue-whites did not want. After more than four hours, the penalty for the councils have passed by in, make the musicians of the Blue KG White with "thank you. Goodbye. Next time it will be just as beautiful." for an atmospheric finale, while the penalty councils descend on a small wooden ladder from its stand and then have secure stage floor under your feet.
Silly notes in passing: When did
Elferrat on Saturday I participated in the Blue White KG. Since I was happy and I laughed more than once. The princess, a Rheinhessin has brought us eleven o'clock foolish fellow red noses, mood
because we have the set up and keep us they wanted to hurt. Guests of the Elferrat, I was always pretty handy. I did not move only in the swaying, constantly up and down, singing and some revelers songs
I'm not with juice, rolls and chocolate bars herumgematscht on the penalty council table, but it is so applauded that, my fingers almost sore. But it was worth it, because the matter was really about.
As foolish newspaper man I could not just sit by the Elferrat and sweating under the lights. Since I had between my sometimes sharp pen. And during this maneuver my red aces fools fell between the cracks
stage I, poor Mohr, who lost his red nose ahead of time. But thank God, had the Tollitäten humor. When she came back later, her criticism was probably in the frame. Even the threat of punishment to take today's car struck the prince, I am not poor wretch Gottlob. I'd do it even with delight. But I did it, I fear, I would have would have Ash Wednesday on the back and up to the next in the Eleventh Eleventh go painfully on crutches.
