fire dance in 2010 or after the castle is in front of the castle Long promised now I'm true to my own personal fire dance report 2010:
It did not start well. 3 days before the first of two festival days, I was sick. A doctor later was clear that I have to ditch the first day. I'm disappointed but steely determination to make the second day. And I was lucky: I was actually on Saturday fit enough to travel.
The trip itself was an adventure: the first jam and then proceed, but still on time was to the inlet I with others dressed in black, more or less long-haired man on the steep staircase that leads up to the castle, which is majestically Well, the village Abenberg rises.
And my winning streak stopped. Since the lawn was gewiechen the tournament Angers mud and clay, the seats were on the stone steps very popular and I landed with such a perfect view of the stage.
first as still quite empty, but Pampatut were already there. And Pampatut were absolute (next to Subway, of course) my highlight. In no time we moved the two in colorful garments under their spell, and warmed up with sometimes a little bawdy humor our funny bone and they would accompany us throughout the day. I can not quite put into words, but even the most hangover curled up with laughter.
Pampatut followed by the Italians from Folkestone, which provided a mixture of metal and medieval par excellence. The troops managed to fill the meadow and the people join to move. Listen absolute recommendation! They are not like Subway more like a mixture of Saltatio Mortis acoustically and the hard stuff from Epica or so. Sounds like a crude mixture, but brilliant.
to Folkestone then the Swedes of Fejd. The music was very quiet and folky so. Maybe not the perfect festival band, I would rather hear it as a soundtrack while reading the Mists of Avalon or other fantastic works, but on the great music and if the guys a bit better in English will have a bright future ahead. Very atmospheric, melodic and beautiful. I had permanent Swedish forests in my mind's eye. Did I have already mentioned that the boys sang continuously in Swedish? I liked her very much anyway!
Then came fire tail. Okay, they look pretty good and yes, the music was not bad and they are a good live band, but the fact remains that just drinking, especially the lyrics this mindless party-fun society "mentality to have, which I trying to escape, because it is simply too superficial to me. Whatever the case, amusing appearance and I do not have all the bands so see the fire dance great.
fire tail were more than offset by Omnia! Great paganfolk and who knows me knows how vulnerable I am all for nature-loving, nature'm religious. Just this side of me was from Omnia gepampert front to back. Slow, fast, melodic, rhythmic, fine. Even the rap we have forgiven them. The English-German mishmash of front man was particularly amusing. Great stage show, a full Anger, what more could you want?
then boarded the Apokalyptischen Reiter the stage. My lowlight of the festival (only slightly better than fire tail) but this was not the fault of the guys. It was at that moment just not my music and they were ahead of me very hyped by friends I had relatively high expectations that they could not meet easily. Whatever the case. The other festival participants celebrate the riders (surely rightly) I indulged after a 9 hour festival, the first and last break.
Then came Subway to Sally. My love, my band. As long as I can still crawl, I can go to a Subway concert. And they were GREAT! The set list included, among other things: the executioners bridal gown of roses, Tierra del Fuego, Little Sister, Judas Kiss, a rocking version of Crow King, the battle, chorea, Maria, Sieben, False Savior and then some. Mary was pretty much the only ballad, and all the usual last tour they had left at home and gave us a very pre-crossfire-Rockset-heavy, all the cracks of the seats and brought us to romp. I think our voice has been heard far beyond Abenberg out. All seven were great on it. Eric raged across the stage like a madman and we drew the last reserves of strength, the sounds of his guitar at the Ingo Maria-long prelude elicited were no longer of this world, Mrs. Smith was celebrated as it should be. Simon Michael was so broke in the journey of one of his sticks. And of course, OF COURSE we got in the end not only fate but and Julia and the robbers. If my subway madness before the show was a little faded now he has me firmly back into his mouth.
What scared me a bit that had me at 2000 Leagues Under the Sea (yes, they have also played!) The tears were because it spoke to me so much from the soul. I did not realize how much I was on the ground.
goes after the concert, but I am already feeling better. to shout for 2 hours every care of the soul helps. Subway saved my life.
came about half past 2 I safe and sound (ok, a bit hoarse, and with a slight ringing in the ear) back at home.
The festival was a complete success and a balm for my soul. After the castle is in front of the castle!
I on the day following the festival's total in the bucket but happy (+ Festival T-Shirt + pentagram cloth)
I have ...
