When a retiree (71) gets into a taxi in Kamegg am Kamp, Lower Austria, and drives to Montreux, Switzerland to pay her respects to a statue of rock legend Freddie Mercury, it may seem irritating at first. However, a second look makes it clear why Karoline Janda, who had a serious heart condition, embarked on this unusual journey in old age.
“It was probably in the 1970s when Freddie Mercury first came on television in my life and suddenly and permanently pulled me into his musical spell,” says Krone’s Janda. The pensioner does not want to go unmentioned that of course she also thought he was smart. Was this a reason why she went to concerts by tenor Peter Hofmann with her husband Günter, who has since passed away, but none of Mercury and his band Queen? Could be. In any case, the fact is that there was simply not enough time for that. Until it was too late.
