Roadburn Festival

Long time, no see - or something. Bought some records (surprise), went to some shows (another surprise) and drank some beers (no way!). Of interest was the Doomed Denmark show at Dragens Hule with Graveyard. Freaking night with the newsters Psychwalks of Eternal Karma that were given the chance to play outside of their usual youthclub communitive. They did well, but had difficulties with the singing - the voises were simply not strong enough for their big sound. Graveyard kicked ass and so did Highway Child. Anyway, this was about Roadburn. Well, a fucking long story, so to cut it short: Fly to Amsterdam, find hostel, buy AK47 skunk, get really stoned, visit a couple of bars, go to bed. Train to Tilburg, find hotel, get food, go to the festival, Great music, great vibe, great everything. Friday, saturday and sunday went on as well. Okay except for the sunday that ended high on E and we were locked out of the hotel and the friday high on shrooms and wandering around staring at buildings. Anyway, back to A-dam monday and hang for the day before flight at night. Cool new bands to me: Diagonal, Taint, Danava, Zone Six, Beehover Lived up to the expectations: Baby Woodrose, Assemble Head, Electric Orange, Gave me more than expected: Litmus, Groundhogs, Gentlemans Pistols, La Ira de Dios, Earthless, Acid Mothers Guru, Graveyard, Dzjenghis Khan, Ramesses, The Glasspack, Orange Sunshine Below average: Capricorns, Boris, Witchcraft, Grand Magus Pure shite to me: Serpent Cult, Blood on the Sun, Trouble, Cephalic Carnage, Repomen Stuff I didn't see: Well, the rest by diffent reasons - or I only saw a few songs, or I don't remember ... I'm in love with Holland ...
