well... it's Sweden's biggest I think... A decision I made last week, since many of my friends are going and my sisters payed half of my ticket as a birthdaygift... Lineup: Some crap, and some very interesting acts... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats a really good festival. like you said "some crap, and some very interesting bands" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oooh! the roots! those guys fucking rock! I also see four tet is coming.. you should check out recordings of his liveshows before you decide if you're going, 'cause if you expect it to be anything near his cds, you're in for a surprise. . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you have any recommendations, give them to me! :) I am leaving tomorrow at 12... then I will be there for 5 days. |

||||||||

|

|
veeeery interesting |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

you should be careful when mentioning peaches.. peaches is also the name of a swedish group with two 14-year old girls that make sucky-sucky techno... "i en rosa helikopter, vill jag flyga hem til deg / i en rosa helikopter, flyger jag gjennom stjärnorna" |
||||||||
|

|
|
it says this one is from canda though...what do i know.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bill_hicks : yeah I'll slip by his show atleast. tolstoyed : yeah I'm checking out Drunken Mastah's link to the four tet live set right now... and it sounds good! Nobody recommends 2 many DJs? I was thinking about seeing them... but they clash with Pixies (that I'm sure I'll see) and when pixies is done, air's up so I'll probably not see 2 many Djs =/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, yeah.. I didn't notice that... hahaha! but still.. imagine the let-down! hahhaha! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah it's the "good" peaches... I'll watch her perform for sure :) btw I am not sure why they booked Alicia Keys - I mean it's not really (this kind of) festival music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
coz she's hot? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks for recommending four tet! that's one of the band I hadn't heard before that I am now sure I'll be watching! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what does peaches look like? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like some of her tracks, I think it'll be entertaining. And I mean I get to see her for "free" once I pay the enterance fee. Perhaps I won't watch her entire show though... but probably I will :) I'm not very into Sahara Hotnights. |

you like some alicia keys songs? or peaches? coz that about being hot i was refering to alicia keys, see :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd like to go to that rydal festival |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aha... no I'm not into Alicia Keys. I haven't listened to her much at all. She's kinda hot yes. But I don't think she's festival material - but I don't know her music really, so I hope she'll surprise me (if I watch her perform)... I might see her cause there are no other interesting acts at the time she performs, and it's only thursday (so I'm probably not very tired yet). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have one of her singles actually haha...i liked that song at the time...i don't remember the title now. i guess she'll be there for those romantic souls you know...they can't make out on peaches... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hopefully... there will be pictures to post! but there will also be quite a lot of drunkeness, espcially the (for me) two first days when no bands are playing. Cause then I won't miss anything geting waaaasted. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm leaving in about an hour... damn I'd rather go to japan and there'll be shitloads of rain during the festival. But I think I'll enjoy it. |

I've put together some hardcore/gabber to bring yo! Producer/Hellfish/Nasenbluten/Traffik/South of London/etc; lots of industrial. Cause I was in that mood yesterday. Hopefully some of it will be played before someone squashes our newly purchased cheap mp3player to death. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
have fun!! |
||||||||
|
|

thanks! I hope I will! I think my biggest slapback is the rain, that will poor on us like showercurtains... |

This was one of the most awesome/interesting experiences of my life... There was great music, lots of partying, and nice girls. There was also some crazy people and irritating moments, but in a way it made things even more intense and interesting. This was waaaay better than what I expected, and I am really happy it turned out that good. I just got home, and didn't sleep anything this night (and very little the other nights), so I'll write the reviews and tell the stories tomorrow. peace all! |

ok there are lots of stories to tell... but lets start with the bands I saw: PJ Harvey Dillinger escape Plan (though only the begining of the show, cause I didn't want to miss pixies) Pixies Air 2 Many DJs (DJ-set) Ash (partly) Soulfly (partly) 3 doors down (partly) Four Tet Sahara Hotnights HIM mono (My biggest regret on the festival was that I missed most of mono's show cause I fell asleep on HIMs show... aaaaargh. But the end of mono's show was great. I must check out their music.) Morrisey (but I didn't pay too much attention) Broder Daniel Gus Gus (DJ Set) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so, which one you liked best? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dillinger escape plan. They're getting pretty popular aye? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

hard to say... Most of them were great, but I can't really make good judgements since my mind was druuunk during the entire festival! Here are some comments on the acts: (on day 1 [thursday]:) PJ Harvey (21:30-22:45) nice. I don't listen to her on a regular basis, but I've heard some songs before, and she did a good show. She played on the biggest scene. Dillinger escape Plan (23:30-00:30) I only saw the begining of the show. They played on the smallest scene, but they were crazy. They jumped around on the stage and played some great, fast music. I really liked what I saw, though I couldn't make out any of the words the singer was screaming. Lots of energy... Pixies (00:00-01:15) I left DEP for pixies, and they were great! Really good. Frank Black have gotten a bit fat, and all members seem to have aged... but they did a really good show (on the biggest scene)! "Where is my mind" is still my favourite song of theirs, and they had with very short breaks between the songs. Air (01:15-02:15, on the 2nd biggest scene) Air was very good. They started out with some music from their second and third album (I think) and some of their soundtrack-songs, then in the end they played the "Sexy Boy" and "Kelly watch the starts". One of my fav moments from the set was the old tracks (they performed them very well), but I also really liked "Cherry Blossom Girl". 2 Many DJs (DJ-set, ???) They were suppose to play from 00:30-03:30, but from what I heard they didn't (some other people I spoke to told me another act was on at when they were suppose to begin). I went to their DJ set after Air finished playing (around 02:30 or something) and then they went on til around 04:00 or even further... They played like house/electronica mixed with rock/pop and some hiphop (with housebeats). I didn't know many of the housetracks they played (or used for beats on the pop/rock tracks), but it was good. But in the end it was pretty much the same thing over and over. A goo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
A goo = A good set though. And a nice trackselection (They even played some nirvana - with some house-beats on of course :) I mean most DJsets are the same thing over and over, but it was just that at a few moments they did played some more experimental stuff, or did more crazy stuff with the mixing than usual, and I wish they'd done that just a few more times. They kept me dancing. |
||||||||

|
I'm gonna go put the laundry into the washingmachines, but when I get back I'll write some comments on the other acts... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, this is probably the peak happening of the year (atleast the summer). I will attend that other musicfestival in Sweden (with noiseartists like merzbow) in the autumn, but I doubt that I'll be having as much fun partying there, as I did here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds like fun...pj harvey, pixes and air...what else could you ask for :) mwrzbow will probably blow your brains out :) i want to see him play here somewehere!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's merzbows best work? his latest or his old work? I am not very into him yet, but it would be nice to check out some of it before I go to that festival (in october)... I will report on the other acts tomorrow, as I am too tired right now :) plus post pics and tell the stories next week when I have the pics :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
huh, i only know some of merzbow (i have maybe 7 or 8 of his albums)...i'd recommend you : tauromachine, time hunter and aqua necromancer...so i guess i like his later stuff better, but as i said, i only know like 10 of his releases :) |
