Wave Gotik Treffen 2015 Day 4: Dr. Mark Benecke, Spiral 69, Sea+Air, Terrolokaust, Die Kammer, Nachtmahr, The Exploding Boy, Soko Friedhof, Mila Mar, Diorama, Party Hopping

General opinion ''All bands are playing at once!'' We were also on the road for you on the festival's last day. And even after three days of partying, we were astoundingly fit. We were queuing at the Schauspielhaus for you today in order to get one of the desired seats at Mark Benecke's, we were in the Agra for TERROLOKAUS and MACHTMAHR, experienced MILA at the Heidnisches Dorf, had a glimpse of the shows at the Landratsamt and enjoyed SOKO FRIEDHOF and DIORAMA finally.

Wave Gotik Treffen 2015 Day 3: Dupont, Arise- X, Empathy Test, Dalriada, Keluar, Clan of Xymox, Veil of Light, Arkona, King Dude, Tempers, Mono Inc., Latex fashion show by Bella Holmes, Party Hopping

Funny Netherlanders with laser words, latex fashion show and DM party! After our party hopping deluxe on the day before, the sun was shining wonderfully when we fell into our beds and when we got up a few hours later again it still did. Sunday was promising a lot of good bands, one could meet all the old-school EBM friends in the Stadtbad at DUPONT, NZ or JÄGER 90, explore new bands at the Volkspalast or enjoy some synth pop at the Kohlrabizirkus.

Midge Ure with band

End of last year I saw MIDGE URE, singer of legendary ULTRAVOX, with his acoustic performance. Now he is back with a full band! Before stating his "Breathe Again" tour through Germany where he will perform the entire 'Breathe' album for the first time in 2015. But before that tour, he came for some additional shows with his band. On stage he was accompanied by Russell Field, Phil Williams and Phil Taylor. Besides his solo hits, he was also playing a selection of his other gems like ‘Vienna’, ‘Dancing with Tears in My Eyes’, or ‘Fade to Grey’. I was really curious how his show with band would be compared to his acoustic solo shows.

Wave Gotik Treffen 2015 Day 1: Rabbit At War, Electronic Noice, L’Âme Immortelle, .com/kill, Blutengel, Steinkind, Antimatter, Deine Lakaien, Feuerschwanz, Eisbrecher

Arriving, Observing, Finding Your Way, Dancing! The town is black. At least a bit. Either the number of visitors has decreased at the 24th Wave Gotik Treffen or it was spread to more smaller locations. Maybe it was the train strike's fault that some didn't find their way to the trade fair town at all.
