Getting Lost Is Part of the Journey: MTV, Deutschland und ich

Steve Blame (Author), Stephan Glietsch (Translator)

“Steve, your lawyer is lying in the Ring”. Although I had never seen this man before I knew immediately what had happened. I sobered up from a night of drug excess, grabbed Markus who was in the middle of the dance-floor. Todd Terry’s remix of Everything But the Girl’s – Missing still thumping in my ears. As I pushed through the crowd I could sense them looking around at me. Outside car horns were blaring, and traffic backed up along the street. In front of them all Eva, lying on her back in the ring, clasping a gin tonic in her hand. I turned to Markus. “We better take her to yours”, I said. Markus lived nearby. We both bent down to pick Eva up. She bolted upright. “As your lawyer I advise you …”, she said, then keeled back over onto the ground.
