Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

While the Simpletones played their music I laid out lines of gunpowder on the floor and on the wall I wrote: “This week I was beaten up for love”. Then I stood on a tottering heap of bricks tied with ropes on my hands and neck. The gunpowder was ignited. While the Simpletones played their music fast I pulled a heavy stone across the floor drawing an eternity-sign. After 20 minutes someone threw a glass of beer over a power-supply and we were cut off.
