With Full Force Festival Day 3: J.B.O., Life of Agony, Avenged Sevenfold, Cavalera Conspiracy, Primordial, Moonspell, Ensiferum and Subway to Sally
It was the last day of this year’s With Full Force Festival and I was excited since bands like AVENGEND SEVENFOLD, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, MOONSPELL and SUBWAY TO SALLY stood on the plan for today. After an already really hot morning, the day started out with J.B.O. first.

Matrix, Bochum, Germany16th July 2008
Thin Lizzy, Dezperadoz
The boys played in my town. Already last year in November, THIN LIZZY celebrated the 30th anniversary since the recording of ‘Live and Dangerous’ the classic live album with a UK tour and now they had reached Germany. THIN LIZZY - one of rock’s best live bands. They played now in a smaller hall than the last time, but this could just mean closer to the fans and to be one with the crowd. When the support band started there were just a few lonely souls in the Matrix and I was a bit afraid that just a few people showed up to see such heroes, but I was taught later of a better one.

With Full Force Festival Day 2: Illdisposed, Job for a cowboy, Entombed, Heaven Shall Burn, Six Feet Under, In Flames
Since the first day was pretty rainy, we were all happy that this day was way better. The sun was shining, and everybody was running towards the lake close to the festival. After a short night of sleep the day started with some bands I didn’t really know. So, the day held a lot of surprises for us!

Tanzbrunnen, Cologne, Germany19th to 20th July 2008
Amphi Festival Day 1 Theatre Stage: Noisuf-X, Nachtmahr, Grendel, Ashbury Heights, Haujobb, Tactical Sekt, Rotersand, The Klinik, CombiChrist
While the main stage on the first day offered a mixed program, the second stage was totally in the hand of the electro bands. So, HAUJOBB celebrated their very last show there - much too early if you ask me - and with THE KLINIK you got another old-school act. But there was also place for the newer generation with bands like ROTERSAND or COMBICHRIST.

Station 4, St. Paul, Minnesota, USA28th June 2008
Unexpect, Shadowside, Benedictum, Visideon, Dendura, Earthen, Something to Fear, Aria Sharp
Female-fronted metal bands are very popular in Europe and with the ascending amount of female-fronted metal bands both debuting and touring in the U.S., the U.S. metal scene was begging for an all female-fronted metal festival. With the Doro tour coming to St. Paul in 2007, Nathan "The SwordLord" Block of SwordLord Productions considered it was the perfect occasion to lauch the first ever FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES metal festival - the ONLY US festival dedicated to metal bands with female lead vocalists, with the help of Bobbie Jean Dickerson.
