Roider Jackl
The Roider Jackl (born June 17, 1906 in Weihmichl ; † May 8, 1975 in Freising ; actually Jakob Roider ) was a Bavarian folk singer and forester .
Life
Jakob Roider was born as the 16th and last child of the married couple Franziska and Johann Baptist Roider in Weihmichl near Landshut . He also grew up on the estate of the small farmer and weaver family. Since he could only attend elementary school in seven classes , he first worked as a carpenter and then in 1927 he enlisted in the Reichswehr for twelve years . On the one hand, this offered him social security and, at the end of his service life, social and economic advancement through training to become a respected civil servant. Jakob Roider wanted to be a forester.
He was discovered as a folk singer in 1931 at the 1st Lower Bavarian Prize Singing in the Leiderer Hall in Landshut. From then on, Jackl could often be heard as a singing duo on the radio together with his brother Wastl, who later became mayor of Weihmichl. In 1931 he won the Stegreif-Gstanzl competition organized by Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation .
In 1934 he married Therese Schwaiger († 1956). He and her had two children, Irma (* 1934) and Werner (* 1939). In order to secure his handicapped daughter Irma financially, he was now aiming to train as a civil servant. After serving in the Landshut, Munich, Augsburg , Bad Reichenhall and Berlin locations , he trained as a forester from 1936 to 1939. After that he was a participant in the war.
After the end of the war, as a politically unaffected person, he immediately took up his position in the higher forest service and worked in Freising until his retirement as a forestry officer in 1967. His territory was the Isar floodplains , and when the major Munich airport was to be built, he fought the project vehemently alongside the opponents.
The Roider Jackl achieved great fame in the post-war period until the early 1950s for performing Gstanzln (short Bavarian mocking songs). For example, he took part in the White-Blue Barrel Organ, which was broadcast on Bavarian Radio from 1952, and also took part in the tapping of Salvator on the Nockherberg . Karl Valentin was one of his admirers .
In general, he referred to current political events as well as widespread human weaknesses with his songs and Gstanzln. Hardly any of those who were so “badassed” was ever offended; on the contrary, it was viewed as a special honor to be targeted by him. In 1971 he received the Bavarian Poet Thaler .
Examples of Gstanzln of the Roider Jackl are:
About the yesterday:
Hopefully it's going to be quiet with us

About professional Bavaria:

About yourself:

Indeed, today the Roider-Jackl-Brunnen by Hans Osel on the Viktualienmarkt in Munich, the Roider-Jackl-Brunnen by Karl Huber in Freising at the foot of the upper Domberggasse and the Roider-Jackl-Brunnen by Peter Lange in front of the house remind of his meeting Place of birth Weihmichl to him. There is also a Roider-Jackl-Weg in Freising and Landshut .
The Roider Jackl died in 1975 at the age of 68 and found his final resting place in the Sankt Georg cemetery in Freising in Upper Bavaria .
