EDIT: so royalties would not be paid to Karl Bartos.

My "hero", truly inspirational.

Here are a few questions.

What was your favourite album to work on?

How did you feel when Florian Schneider departed the group?

Would you be interested in a reunion concert involving Karl, Wolfgang & Florian?

What VST instruments you use?

Do you see Kraftwerk continuing for many years?

What are your inspirations?

How did your cycling accident affect the group?

Edit-

When Kraftwerk ceases to perform live and create new material, would you consider selling your equipment, such as the Robovox, the robot dummies, the desks you use when performing live, etc...?

Also, when Kraftwerk stops performing and releasing new content, would you consider releasing the Kling Klang Library archive to the public?

Are you planning on releasing a new album? New content or even a "Mix 2" album?

Do you see Kraftwerk doing another world tour?

Let's look back at some memorable moments and interesting insights from last year.

Heute möchte ich ein paar Worte über meine deutsche Lieblingsband sagen: Kraftwerk! Diese Band wurde 1970 in Düsseldorf gegründet. Die zwei Gründungsmitglieder sind Ralf Hütter und Florian Schneider. Ralf ist noch ein aktives Mitglied der Band; Florian ist leider vor einem Jahr gestorben. Derzeit besteht die Band aus vier Mietgliedern.

Kraftwerk ist durch einen futuristischen, minimalistischen – diese Band wurde wahrscheinlich von der russischen Kunst des Konstruktivismus inspiriert – und robotischen Stil gekennzeichnet.

Oftmals sehen die Mitglieder wie Roboter aus: blasse Hautfarbe – als bestände ihre Haut aus Metall –, seriöser und unbeeindruckter Ausdruck. Ihr berühmtester Look besteht aus rotem Hemd, schwarzer Krawatte und grauer Hose. Sie kleiden sich immer identisch an.

Die Musik Kraftwerks bezieht sich größtenteils auf Technologie (Transistor, Antenne), Mechanik (Die Mensch-Maschine, die Roboter, Trans-Europa-Express) und Informatik (Computerwelt, Computerliebe, Taschenrechner). Das Album „Tour de France“ ist meiner Meinung nach eine Ode an die Aerodynamik und (an) die Geschwindigkeit. Zusammenfassend kann man behaupten, dass Kraftwerk sich immer wissenschaftlichen Themen widmet. Diese Band hatte die Fähigkeit, der Technologie eine Stimme zu geben.

Kraftwerk hat eine bedeutende Rolle in der Musikwelt gespielt. Man kann sagen, dass Kraftwerk den Grundstein für die moderne elektronische Popmusik (oder Elektropop) gelegt hat. Das heißt, dass wenn wir heute die Musik eines aktuellen Popsängers oder Diskjockeys hören, haben wir sie wahrscheinlich Kraftwerk zu verdanken. Außerdem hat diese Band einen Einfluss auf unzählige Künstler – wie zum Beispiel David Bowie, Depeche Mode, Ultravox, Alphaville – ausgeübt.

Kraftwerk bliebt noch heutzutage aktiv – auch wenn die Band keine neuen Musikstücke mehr veröffentlicht – und organisiert jedes Jahr Konzerte in Europa, Nord- und Südamerika, und Ostasien. Hoffentlich werde ich eines Tages die Möglichkeit haben, einem Kraftwerk-Konzert teilzunehmen.

I will be going through each and every feasible option of manager, citing their style, personality, history and strengths/weakness. I will also be looking at their respective situations in determining the likelihood of acquiring them.

Where We Are and What We Need

The current situation Madrid finds itself with is more complicated given the pandemic, financially the club has been said to have no money to spend next summer, but their is conflicting reports suggesting we could very well potentially spend for the right targets in the right situation. However, free signings seem to still be plausible with the strong Alaba links. There is also returning loan players or players who've been given limited chances, who can help fill needed roles, or players from Castilla's.

Currently we have players ranging in all different kinds of styles, roles, positions, abilities and personalities. This allows for a lot of tactical maneuverability, meaning we have a lot of the personnel needed to play any style realistically without a need for a prolonged managerial transition. With that though, we have a lot of players ranging in prestige and mentality, some are at the top, whilst others are projects expected to grow into that level. This means despite a large amount of youth, the manager still needs prestige and a reputation high enough to garner respect and command a dressing room.

The expectations for Madrid will most likely not change, and patience will depend on the manager (reputation as a player/manager, their vision and/or how the relationship is with the board/Perez). Despite being in a "transition period" expectations for Madrid wont change, its the curse of being the most successful team in the world. The manager will be expected to get results, winning at least one major trophy or competing highly in most competitions. With that we need a manager who can win now but also help to build the team for themselves or others in the future for much more success.

Its unclear when Zidane will be sacked, most reports suggest hell last until the end of the season, others state he has until we get knocked out of all major coemptions, in the worst case the team is in a bad position and needs a change to save next season on top of this season, a lot of fans want him gone now. With unclarity on Zidane's timetable, availability of managers also change. Some are available now but could be gone soon whilst others are more available at the end of the campaign.

With the large a

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

They’re on standbi

Pilot on me!!

Nothing, he was gladiator.

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

When I got home, they were still there.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "
