"Kann es sein, dass es sie tatsรคchlich gibt - die utopische Traumwelt, in der einfach alles besser und schรถner ist als im grauen Alltag, wo alle Menschen Schwestern und Brรผder im Geiste werden und sich ein Mal im Jahr friedvoll in der Liebe zur Musik zu einer einzigen groรŸen Familienfeier im Rock'n'Roll-Eylsium ausgerechnet im Ruhrgebiet versammeln um sich bei Friede, Freude, Eierkuchen, Soulfood und viel Musik von der heimeligen Stimmung spirituell fรผr das nรคchste Jahr rรผsten zu lassen?"
