They simply exist + These so-called favorite bands + Whose albums you wait for like ice cream bars back in the day in Neustrelitz - available only once a year + The Weakerthans are such a band + Because of many reasons + Of course, because of the unbelievably great songs they seem to pull easily out of thin air + Be it a piece like "Aside," one of the best pop songs ever, or the first single release "Night windows" from their current album + Joined in exquisite live performance + A singer for whose smile you would give away even your last ice cream bar, a guitar player who in a wonderfully reserved way makes love to his instrument, and this power and love which fill the concert hall time and again + And, as they played at our festival four years ago, I can assure you with clear conscience that they are unbelievably likable + Cool + A "Favorite-Band" definition for Wikipedia
