  • Programmheft, Auf Den Plakaten Und Der Homepa- Ge Das Festival „Die Festung Rockt“ Findet Am Samstag, 23.05.2020 Auf Der Festung Rosenberg in Kronach Statt
    DIE FESTUNG ROCKT 2020 - VORWORT Was war das 2019 für ein Festival! Wieder ausverkauft, mächtig tolle Bands, gute Laune und das Gewitter hat uns auch verschont! 2020 wartet nun das 13. “Die Festung Rockt” auf euch! Das Team des Struwwelpeter Kronach wird wieder versuchen, euch einen unvergesslichen Tag auf der Festung Rosenberg zu zaubern. Bezüglich des Geländes wird einiges neu sein, denn im letzten Sommer wurde das Gelände umgebaut und großzügige Parkplätze mit Rasenpflastersteinen gesetzt. Was in der Öffentlichkeit zu einigen Diskussionen geführt hat, ist für uns aus Sicht eines Festival- veranstalters gar nicht so schlecht. Eine Schlammschlacht wie 2013 wird es nicht mehr geben, denn es wurden Abwasserkanäle gezogen. Fahrzeuge können nicht mehr ein- sinken und auch die Beleuchtung im hinteren Teil des Geländes ist besser. Erstmals ist das Gelände außerdem auch für Rollifahrer geeignet! Holt euch einfach ein Ticket – eure Begleitperson hat freien Eintritt! Wir freuen uns außerdem auf ein wie immer spannendes und hochkarätiges Line Up! Mit dem englischen Powertrio THE SUBWAYS konnten wir eine Band gewinnen, die nun wirklich schon seit dem ersten Tag auf unserer Wunschliste steht. Hits wie “Rock And Roll Queen”, “Oh Yeah” oder “We Don´t Need Money To Have A Good Time” sind echte Klassiker und werden die Festung ordentlich rocken. Co-Headliner sind RUSSKAJA, die russische Partymaschine, bei der kein Tanzbein still steht. ZSK sind eine der großen deutschen Punkbands, die bisher in der Geschichte von Festung Rockt noch im Line Up gefehlt haben. Nun kommen sie endlich erstmals zu un- serem Festival... RANTANPLAN und TEQUILA AND THE SUNRISE GANG sorgen für Ska-Punk und jede Menge Spaß mit Abgehfaktor.

    Just Like Hendrix: Whiteness and the Online Critical and Consumer Reception of Rock Music in the United States, 2003-2013. Julian Schaap Abstract Both numerically and symbolically, rock music has a white audience, edging out non-whites from participating. Music genres often reflect ethno-racial groups, but why this is so and how this works has remained largely unstudied. Professional and consumer reviewing practices are a prime location for the formation of rock music’s symbolic boundaries. Hence, based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 385 rock album reviews, this article investigates (i) to what extent ethno-racial boundaries are (re)produced or contested in the critical reception of rock music in the United States between 2003 and 2013, and (ii) to what extent (semi-)professional reviewers and consumer-reviewers differ from each other regarding ethno-racial classifications in their reception of rock music. I find that albums by non-white artists receive lower evaluations than those by white artists, particularly when reviewed by lay critics. Although both types of reviewers often ignore talking about race – echoing a color-blind ideology – (semi-)professional critics are more explicit and color-conscious regarding non-white participation in rock music. Furthermore, five different mechanisms are used by reviewers as a part of ethno-racial boundary work: (i) ethno-racial comparisons, (ii) inter-genre comparisons, (iii) positive ethno-racial marking, (iv) negative ethno-racial marking and (v) minimization. Keywords whiteness, rock music, reception, boundary work, music criticism Introduction 'I dress like a white boy but that's okay, it don't matter, my skin stays black everyday' Whole Wheat Bread, ‘The Dirty South’ (Minority Rules, 2005) With this sentence, the vocalist of the American punk-rock band Whole Wheat Bread addresses the commonly experienced struggle that non-white rock musicians go through when participating in the predominantly white rock music genre.
