I got to the remote festival field very late to be met by well organised and really helpful staff who pointed me in the direction of everything I would need. Great start! The following morning I checked out the site and found that there were ample showers and toilets and some good catering and bar set amongst the medieval market area. The staff was helpful and polite and a generally friendly and happy atmosphere existed which prevailed for the whole festival.

Tesla, Heaven’s Basement
Concerning its naming, the Californian formation TESLA was inspired by the discoverer of the alternating current, Nikola Tesla. Therefore, the band represents the straight electronic guitar sound in more than one way. Starting in the Hair Metal era of the 1980s, TESLA reached its breakthrough by releasing the single `Modern Day Cowboy´ taken from the debut album `Mechanical Resonance´ (1986). After the meteoric rise, world tours with ALICE COOPER or DEF LEPPARD were crowned with success as well as the record `The Great Radio Controversy´ (1989).

Arvika festival 2009 Day 2: Lillasyster, De/Vision and Depeche Mode
The second day of the festival was the one I think almost everyone at the festival was waiting for: the night with DEPECHE MODE. I heard a lot of people talking about how much they looked forward to see DM playing live at the festival and well, I sure was one of them! When I first heard that the Arvika festival had managed to book DEPECHE MODE I was very surprised and of course very happy! I just wondered how on earth I would be able to go and see this thing happen but then things just worked out and I am so happy I could be there and see them live! But before it was time to see DM, I had two interviews booked (Elegant Machinery and De/Vision) and also I was planning on seeing DE/VISION live as well.
