"Yes?" " Igor Mirkoviæ here, hi!" "Mirkoviæ!" "Hi, my friend!" "Tell me, is Zveèka in tomorrow?" "I'll be there at half past noon, hang around somewhere..." "It'll surely last till two." "You're gonna shoot tomorrow?" "well, I'd like to shoot a take or two." "You're blessed with weather." "You see how nice it is." "And tomorrow is going to be the same." "Sure..." "But tell me, did any of you invite anybody?" "No way." "There are no invitations for it..." "Word of mouth does it." "OK?" "Who sees it in the papers today will know." "I'm not worried about the crowd." "People will come." "will you be doing some shooting?" "What do you think?" "No, you're gonna do it, eh?" "The Big Bang Theory says that all really important things happened in the first five minutes of universe's time." "In the ten meters of this very sidewalk, in a few of its cafés, many years ago, my own private universe was created." "As a result, there was me, and these people around me are my onetime heroes." "This is the story about the times when they were big, and I was little..." "Zagreb 1977" "I grew up with color war movies," "With frequent fights at school," "With folk songs full of pain... 1977 is an important year in the life of my generation." "Punk spreads over the world, new music, new rebellion." "The Queen in London celebrates her silver jubilee while some Sex Pistols obscenely grin at her." "we also have a jubilee." "Comrade Tito celebrates 40 years of Party leadership." "He's coming to my town, but it wouldn't be wise to grin at him." "I missed his arrival because at the time" "I was suffering from spastic bronchitis." "My whole class stood in line to greet him except me..." "I'm really a happy child... in a film by Igor Mirkoviæ" "LUCKY KI D" "I grew up with color war movies," "With frequent fights at school," "With folk songs full of pain." "I'm really a happy child." "I'm really a happy child." "I'm really a happy child." "Produced by" "And that's practically the only event I remember from the year" "I turned twelve." "It seems that it marked my life path." "25 years later, I am a political journalist." "Switch back to my program, please." "Again..." "More." "This one?" " No, that's OTV." "More." "Go on..." "I'll flip through channels when you're watching Pokemon, OK?" "I don't know what I'll do..." "Know what, pal?" "Let's have a bath and then go to bed, OK?" "Come on..." "I usually don't do this, I never peruse old photos." "But the gathering of my old gang in front of Zveèka got to me like a virus." "I wanted to know how I looked like then." "I'm watching as he impudently stares at me." "As I recall, he never cared about the dinosaurs my age." "And all of a sudden I see in his face why I am the way I am, and not some different man." "It is a weird feeling." "And that's why I began my quest." "So it's 1977." "My first concert." "The band was called Bijelo Dugme (white Button) and everybody listened to their music at the time." "They were the first superstars of the sleepy Yugoslav scene." "I barely talked my sister into taking me to their Zagreb gig and it was then that I really became obsessed with concerts, and I'm still hooked." "The only difference is that today I look like a professor supervising the extracurricular activities of his students..." "I got over Bijelo Dugme like chickenpox." "Quickly and easily." "And then it all started..." "The Yugoslav rock has reached its third generation embodied in the youngest, perhaps its most vigorous, but the most unamiable representatives of the scene, such as Prljavo Kazalište, Pankrti, Paraf, and other more or less acclaimed musicians" "of the so-called new wave." "So then came Polet (Enthusiasm)." "It was the Socialistic Youth League party paper, which meant it targeted young Party mutants in tweed trousers." "But in fall of 1978 Polet suddenly changed." "Rockers appeared on its cover." "Something's going on, a sign by a big photo read." "I unreservedly gave in to Polet and let it shape me like paste." "I absorbed everything, including the unknown band from the cover," "Prljavo Kazalište." "when the interview in Polet was published we were seventeen and eighteen." "It was, I think, the first big interview we did and caught public attention." "It was done by Vlatko Fras and Sven Semenèiæ, who were, after all, slowly but steadily pulling the ropes and dragging us, late teenagers, along." "But, at that time, we didn't know that there were bands like Azra, Pankrti, Paraf, and some other bands." "we thought we were the only ones playing that kind of music." "So they sort of put us together as a common ideological ground." "I think that when we talk about new wave we have to mention the folks gathered around Polet magazine and about Polet as a medium that launched us together." "Kuljiš, Trbuljak, Bakaloviæ, Boškoviæ, and later Franièeviæ." "They formed the primal core." "And how did it happen that you became a rock critic?" "Simply because that was the only thing I wrote about." "when I mentioned before how we used to attack the show biz, it's what made me feel good and it best fitted the whole idea..." "All those outsider kids who were hanging around the Student Center, Zveèka and Blato were OK." "They were, like, cool, and all the others were lame..." "I'm afraid there wasn't much more to it than that." "A great deal of the program was that we had to have stars..." "It had to be show biz, it had to sell..." "And actually new wave helped us a great deal because we literally wanted to artificially create stars." "It turned out we didn't have to do it." "Quite the contrary." "Our basic idea was to reflect the perceptions of young people and not to impose some type of culture through the magazine, which actually launched the whole new wave avalanche." "New times, new times!" "The band that had most influence at least on Prljavo Kazalište, was Buldožer." "Their first album was Spit in the Eyes of Truth." "we played it night and day." "we thought it was so cool." "It's not easy to learn how to play the guitar." "I don't even know how to play it, but I'm trying to master the basic chords at least." "I'll probably make it." "I'll learn basics in the next five years and then we'll see." "The rock scene was actually divided." "Everybody was walking around in some glam fur coats." "Bijelo Dugme and Parni Valjak wore fur coats and high boots." "Their lyrics ware always about sheep or something." "Always about country boys." "So we never caught on to their music." "The Tosca 15, my newly bought record player, had a terrific innovation." "At the end of the song, the head would automatically go back to its beginning." "That way it could play the record endlessly." "So the first single from Prljavo Kazalište was playing all day, at the immense joy of my household members." "Dear viewers, the shoe you are looking at has received top honors for quality and design at the recent Leather and Footwear Zagreb Fair." "It was acknowledged as The Golden Shoe of the Year." "Nevertheless, with all the golden shoes we produce, our citizens spend $ 120,000,000 a year on it in Trieste." "The question is:" "Why?" "I never imagined it would be called punk, to be honest." "Actually, it never became punk." "we were really trying our best to play like the Rolling Stones, and that's a fact." "we were working on it, we rehearsed for 5-6 hours a day, but it just wouldn't come out, The sound was totally different." "As chance would have it, bands like us were emerging, and they pushed us to try the same." "when I started singing with Ciferšlusi (Zippers), I was 15." "And when Prljavo Kazalište took off, I was 17." "And that's, well, that's it." "we didn't even know about punk but it all seemed too soft and too slow, so we speeded up the songs, and before we knew it, we became punkers." "Tribute to Azra concert Tvornica, Zagreb" "He was a year older than us." "I think he started his schooling a year earlier." "He was in 10th grade when I was in 9th." "A year later we were in the same grade because he flunked." "After that I was in the 11 th grade and he flunked again." "After that I flunked, but he flunked too." "Then I was in the 12th grade and he was still in the 10th." "I graduated from college and he was still in the 10th grade." "That's, more or less, his path." "He is an incredibly good soul, a great guy." "He's still the same guy he was in 1979." "I grew up with color war movies," "With frequent fights at school," "With folk songs full of pain." "I'm really a happy child." "At that time emerged bands with safety pins, dressed up in rags." "Look, times changed." "People started breathing more freely." "People felt more liberated." "All those university students were around and they felt that they could talk more freely." "I know, but you were still living in a communist country with all its rules..." " But I created my own world." "So politics was out of mind, we never bothered about that." "Tito, the Party, what was that?" "!" "It never mattered." "Metessi was the right man for my private investigation." "He was the frontman of Patrola." "Unlike me, a snotty outsider, he experienced the whole new wave from within." "He's my main witness, I thought." "He knows them all, he remembers everything." "This is Patrola... what was the first song you wrote, that made an impact?" "Don 't ask about me, it's late for everything." "I can't remember the lyrics." "Come on... - wait, wait..." "I can't remember, fuck..." " Try it." "When I walk through the city..." "Fuck, one chord's missing." "When I walk through the city," "It's a sunny day." "I feel the excitement," "Neon lights shine on me." "Don 't ask..." "Fuck me, I don't know. wait." "we'll get it." "Stop the camera." "Don 't ask for me," "First lights are coming on." "Vacation is near," "Together with summertime mood." "The tidal wave that loomed in music seemed to have swept young photographers too." "Those three words, Something's going on, took on a wider meaning and us kids, besides music, started talking about this and that photo." "why did we choose precisely Polet's photography?" "Polet kept its specific layout, and this is the main credit to Goran Trbuljak, who came to be its layout editor." "Photography is crucial in that kind of layout and that kind of approach to photography was a novelty in the whole Yugoslavia..." "This spontaneous approach, without questioning its artistic or technical standard." "It was more of a simple task of delivering what you saw." "You shoot the things you see and it's published in the magazine." "Although it's hard to figure it out from his working clothes," "Pipo was also Polet's photographer." "There's a rumor he's preparing a photo exhibition about Zveèka and its times." "I called him up." "I started getting in touch with old friends." "Amazingly, I realized that, without knowing it, they were occupied with the same thing as I was." "You were asking about some concerts..." "I know that Zelma, Dražen Kaleniæ, Ves and Posavec must have a pile of photos." "But I'm sure that no one has so many negatives as I do." "They had to run for business and I, thank God, had much more free time to hang around Zveèka." "This exhibition will have a positive affect on many people." "It's pure joy, it's good." "To work?" " Let's go." "wait!" "Smokes, smokes..." "I have..." "I brought with me..." "The first Pankrti concert in Zagreb." "It was on the opening night of Mirko Iliæ's exhibition, which was pretty well covered by the media at the time." "Comics in a gallery!" "active in Zagreb in the past few years by the name of Novi Kvadrat (New Square)." "Mirko Iliæ is their leader." "Novi Kvadrat is a group of eight comic artists." "I hope it will grow soon." "we try to create something new in the comic strip medium." "New York" "The exhibition was held in December of 1977." "I have only a few comics left, but this one I kept." "Novi Kvadrat brought comics for adults into my life." "A sure sign I outgrew Disney." "I was fervently looking for such strongholds of my new adult ideology." "Just as, 25 years later," "I desperately started searching for any trace of the famous Iliæ's exhibition." "Yes, this is the exhibition." "That's me." "This is more or less what I remember." "It was more or less like this, foggy and dark." "Big crowd was standing outside, so people were going in and out, and so on..." "From time to time we had two to three concerts a day." "Among other things, there was a really interesting band there." "It was Azra and Rock'n'roll From the Stribor's Forest." "And there was the first Pankrti concert in Zagreb." "It was quite a shock." "Everyone came in white shirts, red ribbons and nice haircuts." "They sort of looked like little Slovenian hacks." "And then a wall of noise came down on all of us." "They got on the stage and just..." "Ljubljana when we read how they were all spitting on punk in the papers, we said, that's what we want to do... we were twenty-something and we were really excited." "I think everybody dropped their jaws like this..." "Obviously, one of those who dropped their jaws was Johnny who cut his long hair and shaved after the concert." "Moreover, he wrote a song that goes" "I shave my beard and mustache to look like Pankrti." "I shave my beard and mustache to look like Pankrti." "If only I had Fender, there'd be some mean playing." "It's already 1978, the year when all my world starts turning at 33 rpm." "In Marxism class we learned that money is a merchandise par excellence, the ultimate one." "But we clearly knew it was a completely wrong information." "In our world, only valuables were records which we bought, exchanged, lent, borrowed." "we used to gather in our rooms with poster-covered walls and listen to music for hours without uttering a single word." "This is Johnny Štuliæ by the well of Life, at the time when he still had long hair, played the acoustic guitar and sang his ballads by the well." "Azra, as a band, didn't exist yet." "I guess he didn't know that few years after this photo was taken his career would be on the fast lane..." "Novi Zagreb 1978" "If you want more relevant information, you should talk to guys like Sven Semenèiæ." "because of the way they used to promote new wave and punk." "He was older than you." "How did the two of you get together in the first place?" "we met in this little park in the neighborhood." "In Siget, where Johnny played guitar on his legendary bench we found out we had some common interests and that's where it started." "So between 1976 and 1979" "Johnny was playing in all kinds of places." "By the well of Life, on the Mažuraniæ Square where you waited for bus number 43, on the bus itself, and when he'd come for me at my place and I wasn't home, he also played for my mom..." "So he was not much of a chooser." " He played for your mom?" " Yes." "while he was waiting for me." "People called him Johnny at the time?" " Yes." "when I first met him, he was..." "All right, his first nickname I heard of was Èupko (Shaggy)..." "Later, when we started going out in the city," "Èupko was a little improper as a nickname." "And so he became Johnny..." "What should I do," "When my friends are gone...?" "For ten years he had been playing and writing songs and nobody gave a fuck about him." "He had a bunch of songs." "He went around parties and played these songs of his." "People were rolling joints and laughing at him." "You get it?" "Nobody was taking him seriously." "I've found a good band," "All I want is to play," "Get off and that's it." "What should I do," "When my friends are gone...?" "Here, in this passage, the old posters hang on the wall." "we put them here..." "This is the first Azra." "In 1977 I was in the 12th grade." "One of the popular faces in Jabuka club was Paolo Sfecci." "On one occasion, when we were going home, he asked me if I wanted to play music, and he said he had a friend who had some songs." "It was Johnny." "Johnny, come back!" "Although some new kids have been calling for him for years now," "Johnny didn't show up on the concert on which his former mates played his songs." "He went away." "Forever, he says." "And this act made him our little rock scene's mystic messiah." "Later on, another guy who was going to university joined us." "Everything was happening near the Faculty of Philosophy." "Stubliæ joined us, a living legend of sorts there." "He knew how to play a few Lou Reed's songs and two of his." "He wore a white raincoat." "Ladies and gentlemen, especially for you tonight," "Mr. Jura Stubliæ!" "Let's hear you!" "25 years ago I sang this song as the frontman of Azra." "Now I'm doing it again." "He was really good in the beginning..." "He was into Lou Reed, but he had some tricks of his own which worked very well." "One of them was opening a bottle of beer with his teeth at the end of the concert when the atmosphere reached its peak, and pouring it onto his head." "The crowd was ecstatic." "This would have been the cover for the first Azra single." "That band split and Johnny went looking for some new people." "It was too much having both Johnny and Stubliæ on the stage together with the rest of us, angry young new wavers..." "Let's see..." "This is the roof of my studio." "And there, in the direction of the NY Uni." "Medical Center, there is Zagreb." "Now it's night time in Zagreb." "And everybody is sleeping." "I left Zagreb on the 25th of March, 1986." "It just wasn't enough being the biggest frog in a small pond." "Zagreb has 23 cinemas, at least 11 theatres," "Zagreb has over a hundred restaurants, a dozen pubs." "Zagreb has many, many cafés." "At this very moment two casinos are open, night trams are en route, the city sleeps..." "Zagreb looked really, really, or at least to us, depressing." "There were maybe two cafés open after 10 p.m." "You walk across the Cvjetni trg at 10:30 p.m., I remember that, and two policemen come, check our I Ds, ask us what we're doing." "Nothing, just talking." "Go home now, you have to work tomorrow, for export." "For majority of our peers it was pretty depressing." "Jesus Christ..." "You're going to graduate or not, you'll be an export clerk in Astra like your father." "It was, like, Jesus Christ, anything else but that!" "And that is why people skip college classes to go play music, right?" "The first Zagreb punk band, Prljavo Kazalište, released their first album." "I love brunettes," "They can give me life." "Because I'm a young man in his prime." "So this is 1979..." "I only know we were the worst looking guys of them all." "we wore the worst rags," "Jajo lead me onto the stage with the chain." "I pierced my ear." "I was the first in our block to have an earring." "That was unthinkable." "I love brunettes," "They can give me life." "Because I'm a young man in his prime." "The record company gave us 29 free hours in the studio for the recording of our first album, and 7 free hours for mixing in Lisinski, as a postproduction." "So we made it in 36 hours." "Piko Stanèiæ eventually started working with us and we began knocking ourselves out during rehearsals." "Piko is an incredible moving force for a coming up band." "He has the will to rehearse for 7-8 hours." "And those rehearsals were..." "Fileš kept drumming with hands and feet at the same time, and you don't play like that, it's the other way around." "So the first thing to do was to detach hands and feet." "we had a tremendous will." "Fuck!" "4 years ago Republic Committee for Culture and Education founded a board for recommending sales tax-free grants for LPs." "The board will impose taxes on all the records considered bad." "The price of vinyls and cassettes rises." "we were labeled as pulp." "Not because of the music, but because of the lyrics." "Most of it was because of some boys, some girls jokes, homosexual connotations..." "I think they were mostly upset with that and with Happy Child." "I think that song upset them the most." "without further ado, we're boys from the street and we play street rock'n'roll." "You're with your friends," "You cross the street," "Pointing finger at me," "You laugh." "You know it hurts me so bad," "Because if there's somebody who loves you," "That's me!" "I'm all for free man love, I'm all for free man love." "They actually weren't very good at playing." "But the idea, the message and the lyrics were so important." "That was the blueprint for recording, even only potatoes falling down the stairs." "I think it was a great record for late teenagers at that time." "I headed for Utrecht with strong decision to come to his door and say that I have arrived." "There, under his citizen name of Branimir Štuliæ lives Johnny." "Angry with politics, angry with record-execs, he keeps saying he was cheated, robbed and betrayed." "He severed all ties with everybody, although his fans, managers and journalists constantly call him." "I will be in Utrecht the day after tomorrow." "what I would like to..." "I would like to talk to you for half an hour." "It's really awkward over the phone..." "Look, Branimir, I will be in Utrecht on Friday anyway," "I'll be there on Friday and Saturday." "But..." "Never mind, I'll try again." "If it goes well, OK." "Not there for one week." "I knew he didn't go anywhere." "But when I saw that my onetime rebellious hero lives in a peaceful working middle-class neighborhood," "I gave up the ridiculous idea of staking him out in the bushes in front of his house." "I had a coffee and went back to where I came from." "Hauten, Utrecht" "He couldn't gather a band at all." "So he accepted the last possibility he had, took Mišo in the band because he was at hand." "But he couldn't find a drummer." "Sooner or later, Johnny would get in a quarrel with everybody." "Fortunately for me, he didn't play drums so he needed me." "In a way, he was my spiritual father." "we hung out together, walked together to Novi Zagreb." "He was crammed with songs and frustrations after the failure of the first Azra." "Those were rough times, you couldn't have it at home, a little portable studio." "He didn't have a tape player." "so he kept it all in his head." "He kept telling me his head would explode unless we tape it." "Last night I felt like, for a joke," "Wanted her for a moment," "To be something more," "To become my friend." "But Marina, as always," "She turned me down real bad." "But I just felt an urge" "To sleep with her." "It's enough that she sees me," "That she tells me, honey, how are you?" "I feel better right away," "I want her right on the street." "when the doors opened for him, he went to it like a tank." "And he said, no, I'll record everything without calculations." "People were suckers for him, he didn't have to think twice." "He recorded whatever he got." "He probably took every piece of paper with scribbles on it." "Three chords and rock on!" "I'm standing on the street in the city of dreams," "In front of their club." "There's music, girls and lights inside," "But they won 't let me in." "Film was actually Azra's fraction." "I didn't even know at the time if I was able to write more." "But it turned out I was and so we formed Film." "I'm standing on the street in the city of dreams," "In front of their club." "There's music, girls and lights inside," "But they won 't let me in." "No, there's no place for me!" "Because I'm a child from the streets." "The child of the streets still stands in front of their club" "And they won 't let him in." "Because I'm a child from the streets." "He had that attitude." "I'll kick his teeth in and all that." "They all had their homes, they had a place to go." "I didn't have any, I had to be on the street." "My home was some 20 kilometers away." "So I didn't go home at all." "Then the city really gets to you and some pretty nice songs come out of it." "we rehearsed here every afternoon around four." "Stubliæ would pop in and strum something on a guitar with some lyrics and we would go, that's good, that's good!" "We meet at the same place," "We're standing on the corner for so long." "We're a happy bunch of guys," "Our girls are the best in town," "Our girls are the best in town!" "In Zajedno I was thinking about all of us in the band, and how we used to meet in Massarykova Street, in Zveèka, Blato, and Kavkaz." "I was thinking about the togetherness we had." "On nice days we would meet and we would have a great time." "when they have money they drink." "And when they don't they just hang around or meet in Zveèka." "That's what they call our shop." "The meeting hours at Zveèka were very well known." "It was around noon, between noon and 2 p.m." "Then again in the afternoon between 7 and 9 p.m., because we close at 9." "I remember that somebody kept turning back the clock there." "The waitress almost freaked out." "The closing time never came..." "She goes to the storage..." "Only for ten minutes..." "Someone said the other day," "I really envy you on the time when you had Zveèka and all that great spontaneous life." "I mean, Zveèka and Blato were the only two pubs where people could meet because they didn't have anything else." "There's no one in Blato." " Maybe Jura is in Blato." "Maybe." " I'll go there." "I used to come to café Blato in the morning and the waitresses would say, good morning, neighbor." "Since I was the last customer the night before, they thought I lived in the same street." "Hi, have you seen Jura?" " I just came here." "Did you check out Kavkaz?" " No." " I'll go and see if he's there." "I'm going to Blato." "when Zveèka was in the crowd stood all the way to Kavkaz." "The whole area was filled with people." "I really don't know how many people were there." "But I do know that many important people were there." "I think that biggest deals in rock'n'roll, pop art and design were made in Zveèka and Kavkaz." "Before faxes and cell phones." "Most of the people didn't have a phone at all." "That was the Internet of my generation." "Dot com Zagreb." "That's it." "You just went there and knew it all." "who left whom, who's cheating on whom and with who, who was off drugs or on drugs, who stole a song, guitar, wife." "You found out everything right there." "People began popping in and started connecting with others." "If you needed a photo for a cover, you knew that there you would find four photographers and that one of them will click with you and shoot you." "when I'm not playing, I hang out in Zveèka or Kavkaz, having coffee and chilling out." "Look at Live Up to One Hundred, for example." "Bijelo Dugme." "They had to shoot a photo for a cover urgently and I was literally begging chicks to come to the passage between Kavkaz and Zveèka and to show me their breasts." "In three or four hours we found a person we photographed for the Bijelo Dugme cover." "It was like, come, look over here, thanks, stay around..." "Everything was going on there." "I actually never dared to go to Zveèka." "I used to sit in front of Mali Kavkaz with my snotty bunch, watching the big guys and their great babes." "That's where my music and my world were created." "And I was watching from the safe distance." "So it happened that I was raised, modeled and shaped by the café I have never actually been to." "I recorded it." "I was never appointed a photo chronicler." "It was just a kick for me." "It was a group of people." "Most of them know each other," "I hope they will be happy to see themselves after 20 years." "Beautiful women are walking through the city," "I'm standing on the corner all alone..." "Anything went, except one thing." "Nobody liked people with money." "That was the only thing that just didn't work there." "we were too young or the girls were too young to sell out." "Duda, did you forget my number?" "Duda, to hell with your mama!" "If you call me, I'll be yours." "If you call me, If you call me," "I'll be yours." "O, yeah, only yours!" "I was so shy, but Johnny helped me." "He actually made me sing." "He always dreamed that the band would be like Yugoslav Beatles." "And so he made us sing, me and Mišo." "Luckily, I sang a bit better than Mišo so I sang a couple of big hits." "Duda, why don 't you call me?" "Duda, did you forget my number?" "Duda, to hell with your mama!" "I last saw Krn jak 19 years ago when I tried to talk him into joining us again." "He sold everything and became a Jehovah's witness." "He lives in Hungary with his wife." "He obviously had enough of rock'n'roll." "Hey, old pal!" "Hey, uncle!" "You're so strong." "There you are." " You too." "You surprised me." "I didn't expect it would be like this." "God's will, we have the third one here." "where is the third one?" " There he is." "There's him on the wall too." "what's with Johnny?" "Boris, how are you?" " I'm fine." "Looking good, a bit stronger. - what's with you?" "How did you become so strong?" "In those 3,5 years we played about 350 gigs in that lineup." "In those 3,5 years we played about 350 gigs in that lineup." "when we'd set the instruments on the stage," "Johnny would come up with a new tune and while technicians fixed the sound, we'd build the song." "Johnny would write the lyrics the same night and we'd play the song third night after that." "These three and a half years of our lives were very intense." "And so we entered the Happy New Year of 1980." "Bijelo Dugme were still the most popular band bar none." "Apart from Prljavo Kazalište no other group recorded an LP." "we used to record their gigs on our tape recorders and tapes were circulating around the city." "we cherished them as if they were relics." "The last day of the last year and the first day of 1980, president of the republic Josip Broz Tito spent at Karaðorðevo while the New Year's Eve passed in an intimate atmosphere and pleasant surrounding." "Comrades, allow me to wish you a happy new year of 1980." "I believe that in this year we will accomplish better results than we have done so far..." "I wish you success, dear comrades." "Only three days after the party at Karaðorðevo, comrade Tito was hospitalized." "Although the papers tried to convince us that his problems are treated routinely, rumor spread that this time it was serious." "we want to be a youth paper and not a paper for youth." "That is a basic concept." "we recorded it in the late 80s, when I was 21 or 22." "During the exciting 1980," "Zoran Franièeviæ became the editor of Polet." "Such changes were common." "whenever some desk messed up, from a higher instance came a directive to transfer editor to Vjesnik or some other serious papers." "we kids felt like our Polet was a dangerous, flammable stuff." "So the atmosphere was like this..." "Tito was dying in the spring of 1980." "All newspapers were so bloody uniform and dull." "The editors and reporters were afraid of their own shadow, let alone some provocative topics or anything else." "So we decided to do an interview with Milan Šaroviæ, goalkeeper of FC Zagreb." "At the staff meeting somebody hinted a play on words." "Nobody expected that mad Vesoviæ, mad in a positive way, just like any of our photographers..." "He brought pictures of nude Šaroviæ." "I told the man to do the photo in the spirit of the Greek tradition and sports." "It was unprecedented." "The issue was banned the day it came out." "But on Monday and Tuesday we managed to sell it out through street sellers." "Then we filed an appeal and for the first time after ww2 they took the ban off a paper because we proved that a naked man, of course, is not porn." "With student demonstrations," "I lost my ID picture." "I'm really a happy child." "I'm really a happy child." "Few moments ago we received a statement from the Central Committee of YCP and the presidium of SFRY." "They announce the following." "To working class, working citizens, nations and minorities of the SFRY." "Comrade Tito has died." "OK, I'm going like this..." "I open the door," "I come here, pull the drawer," "God, just don't let it fall on my feet..." "I go through it and take it out." "OK?" "Now, I'll put my glasses on." "I have lots of essays you wrote in primary school and later on." "when you wrote this, Farewell to comrade Tito, you were 14 and a half." "Do you want me to read it to you?" "Zagreb said goodbye to comrade Tito, yesterday, the day before." "Days go by." "Days go by and he is still with us." "Even though Tomislav's Square was crowded, it echoed with some strange omnipresent silence, silence that penetrates the heart." "The blue train whistled and then departed." "And we, we were silent, sorry hoping, sympathizing and together..." "All of us, the whole Zagreb." " 1, 2, 3!" "The small ones!" "Is that fine?" "Fiery dawns wake me up..." "I don't think it's more than a coincidence, but a strange one." "The Big Bang, the flood of future anthems of my generation, it all happened when the great leader physically disappeared from our lives." "Steel mornings, I rush to the factory." "My comrades, courageous and happy," "They ride bicycles, all full of pride." "My comrades, courageous and happy," "We'll bring new triumphs..." "Sun 's already shining, the wind is whiffling..." "Vienna" "Morning mist, land of scents." "Sun 's already shining..." "Abundant harvest, I'm full of joy." "Reapers'circle is my goal," "There awaits my girl," "Blond girl I'm in love with..." "At that time I thought we needed a song with something Russian." "But I had no idea exactly what." "So in the rehearsal, I played a chord and we just went off." "The original first line was Shitty dawns wake me up." "The idea itself was all around you." "You just had to watch the news, it was 1980." "So we became famous overnight thanks to Maljèiki song." "Paket Aranžman (Package Arrangement)..." "Šarlo Akrobata, Idoli, Elektrièni Orgazam." "The friends were on their way." "Belgrade" "Belgrade was a small town back then." "Music happened in a couple of basements, several bars and one café, at the parties that became a myth, but at that time there weren't many of them." "They were simply very good because we were all twenty-something." "The song that describes best Belgrade of that time is Zlatni Papagaj (Golden Parrot) from Elektrièni Orgazam." "Golden parrot, daddy's paying all the bills," "Golden parrot, coz we're snobs!" "Until that time, I had 4 or 5 favorite bands." "But in the fall of 1980, Polet announces a new boom." "On the cover of the first season issue was Elektrièni Orgazam." "It was a clear sign that the allies in our generation battle had opened the Eastern front and that a new tidal wave was coming from Belgrade." "Yes, it was the first cover for Elektrièni Orgazam." "It was very early for us because we didn't have a record yet." "The band was still very young." "Our heads really are empty, but who cares about that?" "Because the dough is most important, all else is lame." "Exactly 25 years ago, Belgrade met punk for the first time." "There was an event called 3 days of young Slav culture and Pankrti were on the bill." "In a very short time it triggered an avalanche." "SCC (Student culture center), Belgrade" "The streets came alive again." "You could hear all sorts of sounds from the basements, lots of boys took their guitars and started playing." "In a way, they were all children of SCC." "The scene was initially formed by three bands." "Elektrièni Orgazam, Idoli and Šarlo Akrobata." "Basically, I think of it as an initial period when we were literally learning some basic things." "Dear spectators, it's an honor to present you Idoli (Idols)!" "It may seem different today, but back then, we saw ourselves as totally differentiated bands." "By looks, ideas and behavior." "Paket Aranžman came to be practically by accident." "I think this compilation by new bands from Belgrade can be compared to the early albums by Grupa 220," "Bijelo Dugme, Buldožer, Prljavo Kazalište and Pankrti." "In certain points in time, these records laid foundations for our rock music." "when I look back, it's exciting to think that I did lots of things feeling I would later do something far more important." "It turned out that what we did then was very important and what we did later on was just an extension of it." "It had never been like that fall and it never will be." "In couple of months, loads of new songs became an integral part of my body." "I tied and untied a red scarf in front of the mirror trying to find the guts to go out like that because I wanted to look like a singer who had the biggest hit." "A young director, Darko Rundek is also a singer and a lyricist in the band Haustor." "That spirit of off-beat playfulness in our modern rock bands is the greatest value of the play" "They say that the owl used to be the baker's daughter." "Paris" "Come inside, don't stand there on the street." "That tape was copied and it did rounds around radio stations." "Everybody asked about it because it won the audience over." "There were bands that were trying to be trendy and we were not easily describable in that sense." "You couldn't put a label on us and present it that way." "I think we came up at the time when the Belgrade scene emerged." "That connection between bands from Zagreb and Belgrade began at the festival in Subotica when we first met each other." "we clicked with Film right away and started hanging out together after our gig in the Subotica theatre." "There were Šarlo Akrobata, Idoli, Elektrièni Orgazam and I saw them all for the first time at that festival." "These guys and us, we emerged as some kind of heroes." "I remember when I ate half of a windowpane with mayonnaise." "I'd have never done it before." "You had to perform miracles." "I'm unadjusted." "Film won at the festival with Neprilagoðen (Unad justed)." "Yes." "That's me... he played like a lumber jack, or some cruel meat mincer." "Real energy shock." "we had about 15 songs and we'd play them in 32 minutes." "we were working on the dynamics." "we didn't want flat songs, we wanted dynamically rich ones." "we shifted dynamics like gears in the car." "That was cool." "OK, fourth gear, fifth, overdrive and then hit it... we owned the clubs. we used to play for several days in a row." "Kulušiæ was like our home." "when 700 people came to Kulušiæ, you couldn't breathe or stand." "It was a small group of people, but it left such a mark on them that they haven't forgotten about it." "And neither have I." "So, Film, live in Kulušiæ..." "Ladies and gentlemen, let me present you tonight in Kulušiæ two bands, Film and Cinema." "Now is the time for action in the city." "Goodbye home, I'm going out." "There are so many girls in the streets," "How can you miss them when you're young?" "When you're young, When you're young..." "Hey, girl!" "I want you to be mine, I want you to be mine!" "If they asked me where I lived, I'd say 2 minutes from Kulušiæ and everybody envied me." "It wasn't about gigs only." "There was something going on there every night that you had to fully experience." "If nothing else, the club was so small that we all stood at the same bar, the stars of the new wave and us, kids, looking up to them." "It was a real Azromania." "Seven nights in Kulušiæ and people still wanted more." "we could have played for a month in Kulušiæ." "After the gig he'd spill a small glass of sweat from his shoe." "Really?" " That's what those gigs were like." "Yes." "we played in gyms where there were scales in dressing-rooms." "I used to weigh myself before and after the gig and the difference was sometimes 3 or 4 kilograms." "I'm changing," "I took my beard and mustache off." "I'll try and find a new character, a modern one." "I'm doing all the things I never liked before," "And if someone dear to me gets hurt, it's not my fault." "Because I'm changing." "I'm changing!" "Old ways of thinking, I'll drop them and tear down the bridges," "I'll try and find enough strength to do it again." "Because I'm changing." "I'm changing!" "Punk on the still unopened Topiæ-Mimara Gallery, punk on the Croatian National Theatre, punk on the fountains and on all columns of the Revolution museum." "If one thinks that their image is not enough punk, they should write it on their forehead because it's theirs, unlike the facades." "All of a sudden we realized that we are not the province and that the center of the world is right where we were." "I've been here in Paris for the last 11 years, off and on." "People have always been leaving." "Then, in 1991 they were leaving more than before." "But I think that even during the era of Blato, Kavkaz and Zveèka people grew up, got their wings and flew away." "If you grew up here, would you leave this?" "Is there a better neighborhood?" "what do you think, when did you become a great band?" "when Crno Bijeli Svijet (Black and white world) took off." "Dom sportova, Zagreb Small arena" "I forgot about that." " Huh?" " I forgot about it." "How handsome they are!" "I am Davorin Bogoviæ and around me is black and white world." "Black and white world..." "Things were spinning fast." "Mi Plešemo (we Dance) became a hit, and Crno Bijeli Svijet followed its success." "we sold 24,000 copies in Zagreb." "It was a signal for us to move into larger halls with 3000-5000 people." "My white girl," "Imported exclusive programs," "Mom, dad, dog and a tie..." "They completely changed their music and image." "They put on ties, looked like fine guys." "Jackets, white shirts." "It's not wild guitars any more." "We dance, right?" "It's 10 p.m. The clubs and open air rock places are liveliest." "It felt good to be a medium of the scene and to see the sales of their LPs and singles skyrocket." "Especially if you were the first one who did interview with them or organized their gig." "It's a nice satisfaction." "And because we don 't have money for expensive nights out," "We dance!" "The only issue that year with a b/w cover was the one when Tito died." "This was the second one with b/w cover." "when John Lennon was shot." "Central Committee didn't get it." "How could we level the two?" "we came back from the Committee and decided to do it our way."

"The visitors often stop by interesting cars." "Potential buyers are looking at displayed cars, thinking about the delivery time as well as the price that will change with it." "In Yugoslavia, it was the first time that people listened to domestic releases more than to foreign ones." "we were to support Bijelo Dugme on some big gig in Sarajevo." "Film, Haustor and us."

"More vivid, shaved, and with hair cut." "It was more than clear." "If Dugme had changed, everything else would change that year." "The only change was overnight fame, but on a limited scale."
