Faust News
22 Jan 2007: Uwe Nettelbeck Dies
Uwe Nettelbeck, founder and mentor of Faust, died on January 17th. Jean-Hervé Peron made this statement about the passing of the man who first formed and inspired Faust and was a key creative force behind the group in their early years;
"Besides being a sharp-witted but yet charming and loving husband, father and grandfather, he was an outstanding cook, a writer who always generated deep emotions and interest, and a genius, selfless music producer. Thank you Uwe for all you have done for our music. Faust is your work, no doubt ! Your work will outlast all of us. May your soul rest in peace. My sincere sympathy to his family Petra, Anouchka, Sandra, Elisha and Elsa."

Sad indeed. It should make us think that our musical heroes won't be arround for ever, so if you get a chance to see them live you should grab it.

Sad, but I agree as well. Their live shows look as mad, extreme and as brilliant as you can go, without loosing the whole idea of a gig
