In May, much of the country will be celebrating Udo Lindenberg's 80^(th) birthday. Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre and Jan Delay will be getting everyone in the mood for the extensive festivities honouring Germany's most important songwriter with an evening of songs and lyrics by and about Udo, aptly titled 'Vorglühen'. Vorglühen is an evening dedicated to Udo's songs and lyrics – and, of course, lyrics about him.
At the programme's premiere in Hamburg, Stuckrad-Barre and Delay said that they had essentially been preparing for these shows since childhood, stating: "We learned to speak, write and sing through Udo's songs, and above all through his lyrics. Everything about love, nights and partying. In short: life.'
