You are so lucky. And you tell everything about this, right?

At sunday I went to a great free festival called Metropolis in Rotterdam.
I saw:

Golden Silvers
The Asteroids Galaxy Tour (great! an happy, energetic festival band)
The Soft Pack
I kissed Charles
Mdungu
Rolo Tomassi (way too loud and screamo, so after laughing for a few minutes we went to-->
Dio & The Madd (some rapper ft some rock band, didn't expect too much of it, but live it was just very energetic, really great!)
Johnossi that 2 people can make such a sound, they best performance of the day and the reason why I came to this festival. And I wasn't disappointed! My favourite 'band' of this moment, love their sound

Btw not that the bands where I didn't write something about were bad (except for Golden Silvers) but just I'm too lazy to write about everything and the things where I díd write about were really great

Masters of Rock was the only one I managed to go to. The highlights of all the bands I saw were Eluveitie, Tiamat, Stratovarius, Edguy and Audrey Horne.

I can finally add something to this page!

August 5th, 2009 Phoenix Effect at On the Rocks

Great place, terrific atmosphere. I really liked the warm-up band. Two Timers is a Brit band that played Southern bluesy rock. They were really very good.

PE had phenomenal energy and the music was really awesome...too bad I couldn't hear Janne at all. Everything else overpowered his voice, and it was really frustrating because you could see he was really giving everything he had. By the end it was slightly more balanced and I could catch at least every 3rd syllable. Oh well. It was great to meet them and say hello.

August 7th: Aqua @ Tivoli



It was awesome!!!
