"Kann es sein, dass es sie tatsächlich gibt - die utopische Traumwelt, in der einfach alles besser und schöner ist als im grauen Alltag, wo alle Menschen Schwestern und Brüder im Geiste werden und sich ein Mal im Jahr friedvoll in der Liebe zur Musik zu einer einzigen großen 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 für das nächste Jahr rüsten zu lassen?"
