Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite band is Toots and the Maytals, a Jamaican reggae band. They have good and rythmic melodies and good singing.
Manu chao, because he got all his skills through doing busking/street music. He was bad in the beginning but went through a lot of criticism to get where he is.
Bob Dylan
Kino from Russia
The Clash
Dan Berglund, a Swedish worker poet

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-On a train passing by Dresden, I got invited by a German poet to drink coffee in his home. I accepted.
