[sarra cenia <sarracenia.81 AT gmail.com>]

You guys must be talking about:
"das Venus Weltklang Internationale Frauenrock Festival"
June 19-21, 1981 - Tempodrom, W. Berlin.

-An LP was realease on Flame Records.
Great tracks by:
Aupairs
Die Hausfrauen
Liliput
Mo-Dettes

Lilidrop
Insisters
Wicked Lady
The Bloods
Unknown Gender
Carambolage
Pink Plastic & Panties
Bitchband No.1

also on the bill was: The Slits, Nina Hagen, Gianna Nannini,
Kandeggina Gang, Strapaze, and a Swedish band too none are on the LP.


also.. a book:

Venus Weltklang: Musikfrauen, Frauenmusik
Rita von der Grun
ISBN: 9783885201151
Publisher: Elefanten Press
Publication Date: 1983

It's in German, so I can get minimal info out of it.
Some info on the fest of the same name, and a lot on the history of
"frauenmusik".
Loads of good band photos.
