Moonlighters perform at International Media Lounge and City Arena in Frankfurt

June 2+3, 2006. The International Media Lounge, hosted by the City of Frankfurt's press office and the Frankfurt Press Club, opened on June 2 as a meeting place for journalists from all over the world who are in Germany covering the FIFA World Cup. On this occasion the U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt sponsored a well-received performance by the Moonlighters, a New York City-based band featuring 1920's and 30's jazz and Hawaiian music.

Until July 2 the Media lounge will enable reporters to watch World Cup games, meet colleagues and get professional assistance for their work. Interested correspondents can register here.

Again sponsored by the U.S. Consulate General, the Moonlighters took their Hawaiian Swing also to the City Arena on June 3, a multicultural festival in downtown Frankfurt featuring musical performances from groups representing the 32 nations participating in the World Cup.

If you missed the events, here are some highlights of their June 2nd performance on video! (Windows Media Player and DSL connection required.)
