On the first of July, the time has come, I'm getting ready for the third festival in a row without an interruption. It means leaving Rock & Metal Day'z area for Ballenstedt after breakfast to attend the Rockharz Festival. This time, the journey there and back should be more relaxed and without major traffic jams and criss-crossing than in previous years. For the first time, different routes have been specified that lead to the various campgrounds.
On Sunday 22nd June morning I make my way to the second of three festivals. My car is fully packed for a raid to Oschersleben and Rock & Metal Day’z 2025. As last year, it is going to be a demanding 10 days experience. Now I meet with the others who have been eagerly awaiting this weekend for a year. They are the members of MA.D.E.for Kids e. V. and friends who will be hosting Rock & Metal Day'z 2025 from 26th to 28th June. They are very excited about the new location, the Autocross-Rennstrecke An Den Sieben Bergen in Oschersleben. How will the set-up go, will it be too cramped, are there any uncertainties, or will everything run smoothly?
What do you do when your favourite Swiss guys from Fire Rose, while on tour in January as support for Bonfire, tell you that they will be playing at a festival ‘just around the corner’ in the summer? Of course, you promise to come along. ‘Just around the corner’ turned out to be 120 km away, in Ulmbach between Frankfurt am Main and Fulda. Nevertheless, I set off on 20th and 21st June. The UOB Festival is to be the start of my two-week festival summer holiday,
It has been exactly a year since I last saw the headliners of tonight's show. Last year they were co-headlining with Rising Insane, on this Bad Blood tour they only have Lost in Hollywood as support. Of course I am talking about SETYØURSAILS and the charismatic singer Jules Mitch.
Read It's one of those days you've been waiting for a long time.
