The “longest beer garden in the world” is happening right now just down the street from our house! It’s the International Berlin Beer Festival, going on from Friday until today. We really hadn’t heard about it but we decided to walk back from downtown after seeing Transformers yesterday, and, well… you just don’t miss a mile of beer. We’ll probably take a little more time to check it out today, but we took a little video yesterday and I thought I would share. Brings back memories of Radio Daze at the Oktoberfest in Nashville!
We took another video of the band doing that classic German biergarten tune “Take Me Home, Country Road.” To which I link you without further description, here.

And that answers the oft-asked question, “How does someone make it ALL THE WAY THROUGH Country Roads?” Why beer, of course.

Is that the blogger himself on the vocals?

I just watched it again and you could almost believe that’s me singing along… but no.

I thought it was a little too good to be you, and yet, not good enough for it definitely NOT to be you.
You never know these things. My friend from Florence Graham Wright ended up being a professional opera singer, which was a bit of surprise. You joining a German oompah band, would be surprising, but not as big a shock.
