Birdland is a jazz club in Hamburg. The basement club is located in the Eimsbüttel district on Gärtnerstraße. It was opened in 1985 by Dieter Reichert. The club was supported by Jazz Federation Hamburg e.V which organized the events and allowed its members to attend performances free of charge. The club accommodates audiences of 150 with seating for some 110. It has been described as "much-needed addition to Hamburg's catalogue of venues for international and home-grown stars." Birdland's programmes covers swing, mainstream jazz, modern jazz, Latin jazz, Dixieland, and avant-garde. Only live music is played. There are concerts several times a week. Once a week there is a jam session, in which beginners and music students played together with recognized jazz artists when they happened to be on tour. Once a month there is a vocal session. The musicians who appeared at Birdland include Chet Baker, Art Blakey, Ray Brown, Rebekka Bakken, Tommy Flanagan, Johnny Griffin, Joe Henderson, Diana Krall, Brad Mehldau, Viktoria Tolstoy, and the brothers Branford and Wynton Marsalis. Recordings of performances at Birdland have been released on the ACT and Nagel-Heyer labels. The club closed on 30 June 2013. It reopened on 2 October 2014.

Dittsche

Dittsche: Das wirklich wahre Leben (The really real life) is a German improvisation comedy television show starring Olli Dittrich and Jon Flemming Olsen. Olli Dittrich plays the unemployed Dittsche, who frequents a local fast food diner and converses with the proprietor about current events, drawing heavily on bizarre tabloid headlines to formulate perplexingly insane theories about their background. Schildkröte (German word for turtle), a bar regular (played by Franz Jarnach), looks on mostly passively in the background. The show is unscripted and is broadcast live from a real fast food diner in Hamburg. One special feature of the show is the camera perspective, which changes in a fixed pattern and is digitally processed to mimic surveillance cameras. The show also features many celebrities from German TV and sports, who appear as customers of the diner.
