RANGOON — Hundreds of Burmese youths and a sizeable contingent of foreigners gathered at Rangoon’s Kandawgyi Park on Saturday night to enjoy a night of rock and punk performed by local bands Side Effect, No U Turn and Burmese alternative singer Kai Zar Tin Moong.
The main act was German punk band Die Toten Hosen, which was invited to the event organized by the German Embassy to celebrate the 60th year anniversary of German-Burmese diplomatic relations.
Die Toten Hosen—meaning The Dead Pants or The Dead Beats in German—were formed in the early 1980s, the height of the punk-era, and have been a well-known for decades.
