'The East Germans decided they’d had enough of our antics. They’d been monitoring our movements and, without notice, opened fire on our bus. Just like that! Well, holy shit!,' Tana Douglas writes.
After the soldiers rousted us off the bus and confiscated our caseloads of the evil brew, we were sent on our way with severe warnings of what would become of us if we stopped again. My German isn’t great, but I swear I heard some reference to us, travel and Siberia.
We turned up at the show the next day with Bob Young, Quo’s tour manager, holding the West Berlin newspaper that relayed what we’d gotten up to on our day off. In great detail, I might add. It was 14 February. Happy Valentine’s Day to me! I had to brave the blisteringly cold night to use the service station restrooms. Staff directed me down a wide set of stairs to a long, tiled hallway that resembled the access tunnels to the London Underground, clearly much older than the building above. Halfway along this hallway, I came across a group of American soldiers who looked homeless. When I asked them if they were alright, I thought they were going to cry.
I felt sorry for them and brought them back to the bus with me. We fed them and gave them each a blanket along with Status Quo merch swag that would help them keep warm: sweatshirts, T-shirts, scarfs, beanies. We also gave them a couple of shots from our recently restocked bar, to stave off the cold.One of the soldiers answered, ‘Why don’t you come with us? We can show you.’
