Great band!
During the time I spent in Texas, I saw them live once at a festival in Juarez, Mexico.
They polarise opinion amongst Mexicans residents in Texas as they are vociferously pro-EZLN (the Zapatistas). Understandably, many Mexicans in the US (as opposed to Tejano people or Hispanic Texans; some of whom can trace their roots in Texas back to before the Alamo) being either 'illegal' or just about legal don't want to 'rock the boat' too much.

OT:
yep. Saw them live in the Knust a couple of years ago, the sweat was dripping off the ceiling... they play tonight in Hamburg Stadtpark, guess I will go and have a picknick with my girlfriend next to the venue so let's get out of the office...

Played two concerts in 2002 and 2003 in the autonomous social center (KTS - Freiburg) i was involved in for almost no money and were generally really nice guys who were very happy to talk radical politics.
Next time they were in town, guess that was they year after that, they were too big and filled a little arena and a ticket was 30 euros.... so I didn't go or have seen them ever after...

Dublin City Centre,bumped into a guy from Karlsruhe wearing a St Pauli T-Shirt.Started talking to him after I frightend the living sh*t out of him as I swear he was about to hand me his wallet and Girlfriend....the relief on his face when I started to talk about St Pauli.............

Nice Bloke and was happy to talk football for a while.....

Two separate sightings in the tiny Ibiza resort of Cala Llonga last week (apart from my fanladen tshirt)...
1) Spanish DJ, wearing the 2-1 bayern shirt and carrying his box of records(?) on his way to a gig shouted 'Ay St Pauli!' across the street at me.
2) Celtic supporter wearing a zweiklassig tshirt on his apartment balcony having a tab

just got back from sylt, did lots of St Pauli spottting there! and i had my new st pauli womens team t shirt on when i was there as well, so perhaps i was 'spotted'.

perhaps not too surprisingly, tho i had been led to believe it was an enclave off Mercedes driving types, but that was just Kampen!

last week, while I was walking from work to Aldgate East tube station, a bloke cycled past me down Commercial Street with a brown shirt with logo on it

a quick 'hi' to shane who lived for several years in hamburg before moving back to ireland. bumped into him wearing his totenkopf t-shirt outside kowloon park in jordan, kowloon, this afternoon.

August 27, a bus station close to the old town of Riga, Latvia: a rather thin man with long hair and a St.Pauli t-shirt. was in a taxi so couldn't ask about any real connections to the club.

Connect Festival, Inveraray. Saturday night, watching the Gossip (from a sensible distance - that woman is sore on the ears at close range!) - bumped into a lad called Joe from Balloch. We both had Totenkopf T-shirts on. Turns out he's a season-ticket holder at Millerntor - goes over 3-4 times a season and his mates in HH make sure his ticket goes to a worthy individual when he's not there.

I asked him if he was on here - he said he knew about the forum but tends to stay off the internet due to its addictive qualities!!!

I let him know about the Murrayfield so hopefully we'll see him in there occasionally.

I spotted a beautiful woman lighting a ciggie with a St Pauli lighter at the weekend.

It was my girlfriend though who was introduced to the politics of the club after I saw a fella at a festival in Austria wearing the stripy Astra shirt.

have known joe since school, very good friend of mine

guy in brown zip up st pauli top with club crest at wembley park station at 7 on friday, before England v Portugal Under 21 game, anyone on this board?

Whilst waiting at Stansted Airport in Friday night, i spotted a guy in the Braun tracksuit top, reckoned he may have been the same lad Tracy spotted at the England U21, as there were a lot of England fans at the airport on the night.

Two guys outside of Trinity College wearing their St Pauli T-Shirts here in Dublin,they were a joy to talk to as they had taken part in anti G8 protest when living in Hamburg...
