Trust me, covid has fucked up Blixa’s life more than anyone... their crew lost like €30,000 when the tour was cancelled!

He’s had to leave Berlin because the infection rate in Mitte spiralled out of control. So he’s sitting out the plague in a house in rural Portugal, and he’s decided to write some books to keep him from going mad.

Anyway, enough gossip. I look forward to the books, even if he situation occasioning them is less than idea.

We (meaning my old housemate in NYC) used to have a cat named Blixa. It used to demolish things. Often crap goth records. Therefore, Blixa = classic.

Cats named after Blixa Bargeld do seem to be much more common than one would imagine, I must say.

The rate in Berlin Mitte is far from being out of control. It's about 70 out of 100,000. Very far below parts of France, UK, Czech Republic etc.

He may have felt the need to leave, but it's nowhere near out of control here.

I apologise. I've googled the figures, and it's now 130 out of 100,000. But it's still lower than many regions in Europe.
