Brothel Uber Alles
By Wyatt Earp | November 19, 2009
A German orchestra has come up with an interesting plan for self-promotion. They want to perform in a local brothel. I wonder how the woodwind section feels about that? Heh.
BERLIN – A German orchestra announced plans on Tuesday to play a concert in a brothel in a novel effort to bring classical music “out of the concert hall and to where people are.”
Punters and employees at the Eros Centre in Leipzig would be treated on Friday to six musicians and a singer from the city’s Forum for Contemporary Music (FZML) performing “licentious and erotic” works, the orchestra promises. (H/T – AFP)
If the orchestra wanted to bring the music to where people are, they could have tried a park. I’m just sayin’.

“and this one time… I stuck a flute up my leipzig”
There are erotic classical works?? lol
Think they’ll play My Sharona and Right Round????
“If the orchestra wanted to bring the music to where people are, they could have tried a park.”
From what I’ve seen of most parks, they’d probably find a better class of people in a decent whorehouse.
Randal – Well played, sir.
Smite – Leipzig. That’s awesome!
DL474 – Apparently so. See what we’re missing?
MeToo – My Sharona. I loved that song!
BobG – Yeah, no one wants to be dodging syringes.
