"With the image of a hated job that you want to escape by signing on to ariverboat, we are following in the tradition of another great riverboat song: 'Proud Mary' by the US rock band Creedence ClearwaterRevival," the self-proclaimed "collectors of pop" Silvana and Marc tell us. But why riverboats? Woog Riots wrote the song while Silvana herself was working on ariverboat. The experiment ended after a year. What remains is the song "Riverboat to Amsterdam", which was of courseperformed and tested live for the first time in the board bar on a trip from Cologne to Amsterdam.
