Airfield Drispenstedt, Hildesheim, Germany
13th - 14th August 2011
M’era Luna Festival 2011 Day 1 Main Stage: Within Temptation, ASP, Apocalyptica, Blutengel, Equilibrium, Mesh, Leaves Eyes, Qntal, Omnia, Ostfront, Winterspring
High summer for a certain part of the population has a different meaning, for this is the month when an airfield in Hildesheim, Germany was the scenery for the next incarnation of the renowned M’era Luna festival. In 2011 the tradition continued and oddly dressed dark people from almost every corner of Europe and beyond got packed and travelled long distances when the mentioned airfield was kind of rebuild to become the festival’s home for two days. In fact, this year it were three days with the Friday evening presenting not only a party at the hanger to warm up but also readings of three famous writers, namely Markus Heitz, Christoph Hagebusch and Christian von Aster.

Palladium, Cologne, Germany
29th August 2011
The Offspring & Sondaschule
THE OFFSPRING were playing their one and only German concert on 29th August in Cologne. Originally planned for the E-Werk, it soon was obvious that this location would be much too small and so, the show was moved across the street into the bigger Palladium. Anyway, the concert was sold-out. Anyone in the area was eager to see the US Punk rockers.

The second day of Area4 festival came with what we all hoped for: Sunshine and only sunshine with no hint of a cloud in sight. To be honest, a cloud once in a while wouldn't have been so bad, especially when staying at the main stage.

Area4 Festival 2011 Day 1: 30 Seconds To Mars, Hot Water Music, Jimmy Eat World, Ignite, Danko Jones, Karnivool, Madsen, Disco Ensemble, Royal Republic, The Black Pacific, Turbostaat, The Ocean, Veara, Title Fight
One of the last summer festivals was going down in Germany on this sunny weekend in Lüdinghausen “somewhere at the end of the world”. About 20,000 of people were looking forward enjoying three days of rock music and good weather; the latter unless the weather god decided otherwise. Fortunately he was in a good mood and the majority of the first Area4 festival day went by sunny and warm.

Dinkelsbühl, Germany
18th - 20th August, 2011
Summerbreeze Festival Day 1: Witchery, Marduk, Hackneyed, Decapitated, Arch Enemy, Kampfar, Vreid, Der Weg Einer Freiheit
On this day, the sun was shining constantly upon the mass of festival attendees. Many tried to gain one of the rather rare shadow spaces on the festival ground, whilst others simply stayed on the camp ground or refreshed themselves in the local swimming bath.
