Tom Atkins Blues

The Spaetkauf Late Night Shop has been at the heart of Berlin Prenzlauer Berg and an integral part of peoples daily lives for over 13 years A place to meet and hang out local bar grapevine a place to buy anything you might need out of hours A place to forget your worries Where there is always time for the customer Every night and all day Sunday With reggae dub amp hip hop playing out of the speakers onto the street Tommy the Englishman has worked in the Spaetkauf for years selling the wares and dealing with arguing couples lost tourists drunken locals late night discussions participating in heated basketball games visiting late night clubs and suffering hangovers A kaleidoscope of people offering glimpses into their lives hopes and thoughts weaving a tapestry of local life
