Alsterdorfer Sporthalle, Hamburg, Germany
Part Two of the Helter Skelter Roadkill 96 Festival series
together with the Sex Pistols.
Due to low ticket sales, The Sisters and the Sex Pistols got
cancelled - as they were the most expensive acts.
The rest of festival with the smaller bands was removed to
Große Freiheit 42 on the Hamburg Reeperbahn.

Helter Skelter Festival 96
Scheessel Rennbahn Eichenring
To make bad things worse, visitors arriving at
Alsterdorfer Sporthalle, were not informed properly.
Those who made their way back home westwards
would then pass the town of Scheeßel in Lower Saxony,
where all over festival announcements like the one
here on the left were put up, leading to further irritation.
