The Molotow club in Hamburg St. Pauli at the Reeperbahn has terminated their tenancy agreement for the end of the year 2008 after existing for 18 years now. So Hamburg loses our favorite club and concert venue at the Reeperbahn in Hamburg-St. Pauli. Please help to prevent this!
The Molotow needs sponsors on a long-term basis to survive!
There are also benefiz concerts planned to save the Molotow. Bands are needed for that!
The Molotow club in Hamburg is very well known for bands to play there when they start out before they become successful. Many many now international successful bands played their first Hamburg gig there. It's one of the most important concert venues at the famous Reeperbahn and in Hamburg in general. Hamburg needs the Molotow!!
Sooner or later the world famous Reeperbahn in St. Pauli will become nothing but an ordinary street if we continue to watch it's best music clubs being shut down and getting replaced by supermarkets and chains. The Molotow is not the first venue that is being shut down there.
