In memory of Rainer B. (The Baron) on the anniversary of his journey to the celestial Human Highway.
Sept 30, 1964 to April 2, 2014
German physicist, administrator of Human Highway and Bad News Beat, dreamer, music aficionado, devoted Bayern futbol fan, quirky nerd with brilliant sense of humor, fierce friend and the perfect stranger, like a cross of himself and a fox.
Bad News Beat pays tribute to its administrator: “The Baron.” (Rainer B.)
You will always be on this page and in our hearts.
Rainer gave us all a commercial-free, private venue for almost 20 years on Bad News Beat and Human Highway so Zumans could travel freely and share their love of Neil Young – and their lives – with each other.
I cannot write more now. Your loss is profound, beyond measure.
BIG GREEN COUNTRY
Across the plain flew the lone grey rider
Leather bag pounding on his back
Above the clouds the moon was climbing higher
A pack of wolves wanted their money back
With folded arms the chief stood watching
Painted braves slipped down the hill
In his ears the spirit talking
As they closed in For an easy kill
At the house the door was wide open
Wind blew curtains off the rod
She was waiting and hoping
She was praying to her god
He was luckier than most men
He was barely in his prime
As she stood their in the doorway Her long dress flowing
Would he make it this time
Over the hill in the big green country
That’s the place where the cancer cowboy rides
Pure as the driven snow before it got him
Sometimes I feel like he’s all right
Sometimes I feel like a piece of paper
“I feel like I just woke up from a bad dream ” by -- Neil Young
