Amphi Festival 2009 Day 1 Main Stage: Fields of the Nephilim, Covenant, Leaether Strip, Eisbrecher, The Birthday Massacre, Solar Fake, Mantus, Coppelius
The first jubilee is over and it could not have been more exciting. Who would have expected FEINDFLUG to literally play the plaster from the Rheinparkhalle’s ceiling! Fortunately no one got hurt when that 2m² sized part fell on the stage and did burst into tiny bits. Still the facility manager of the Rheinparkhalle had to close the venue for security matters… but more about that in our Indoor-Stage report. The main stage on this first festival day had a great program to offer with Goth heroes FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM headlining the stage. Furthermore you got, among others, electro heroes COVENANT and LEÆTHER STRIP.

Backstage Open 2009 Day 1: Hassliebe, Benzin, The New Black, Tito & Tarantula
This year, the “Backstage Open” took place once more. Actually, it should become an open air festival, but the repeatedly bad weather arranged the organizer to move into the Backstage Werk. Because the bands could play longer indoors, the beginning times also got rid conformist and it started on the first day at 7:30 PM.

The second festival day started quite early already at 11 in the morning. No rain or bigger clouds in sight today and very soon we felt like roasted chicken on a grill and those who did not take care also looked very red and burned. Medical care had quite some work with collapsed people. Luckily the security took care for one or another cold shower. But now to the important things, the music…

Korn, Machine Head, Gallows
At first: A really big sorry, that you could read this review later than normally accepted. I’m better to photograph a gig and so I needed my time. People, who would like to support me in Berlin for writing reviews, are very welcome. But good things come to those who wait. Sadly I couldn’t photograph this time. I’m very happy to present you pictures of KORN and MASCHINEHEAD anyway. Tremendous thanks to Grit Rümmler!

Vainstream Rockfest 2009 Day 1: Hatebreed, Gogol Bordello, Suicidal Tendencies, The Gaslight Anthem, Ignite, Dillinger Escape Plan, K.I.Z., Walls of Jericho, Muff Potter, Bouncing Souls, Bring Me The Horizon, Mr Irish Bastard
The fourth anniversary of Vainstream Festival! It was to be a big, hot, boozy party as in the years before. Considering the temperatures one was put in mind to the festival’s premier taking place on the year’s hottest day, but didn’t have any effect on the mood and what’s better than good music on a sunny summer’s day? Real good music on two sunny summer days! That’s what the organizers must’ve thought and so presented this year’s edition on two days. Even as a mere attendee it’s a good feeling to see a festival grow time after time. A definitive sign of the good job, those responsible are doing.
