KonzertKult.de – Live Music Culture – We Were There
When the Music’s Over – the Culture of Archiving Live Music
We are an online chronicle of live music culture, capturing concert photography and reviews from shows in the Köln–Bonn region and beyond – spanning rock, country, metal, pop, indie, and alternative. Since plenty of other sites cover new releases and album reviews, we chose to put our full focus on live music. For upcoming concerts visit our EVENTS page, for new concert announcements go to NEWS.
