Halle Münsterland, Münster, Germany19th May 2008
Schiller
On Monday, 19th May we visited SCHILLER at his current tour in Münster. The concert was announced with Dolby surround sound and I was very nosy for this thing. SCHILLER is the main project of Christopher von Deylen, a German musician. Von Deylen doesn't provide vocals for any of his music, instead choosing to collaborate with singers from within and outside of Germany, for example Enya, Sarah Brightman, Peter Heppner, miLù, Tarja Turunen, Alexander Veljanov or Mike Oldfield. The name of the band is taken from one of von Deylen's heroes, famed German poet Friedrich Schiller. The current album is called ‘Sehnsucht’ and was released in April 2008. At this concert, SCHILLER was supported by a live band, introduced by him as the best band of the world, and three female singers who sang several songs. http://www.myspace.com/schillermusic

Wave Gotik Treffen Day 4: Deviant UK (GB), Gothika (J), Militant Cheerleaders On The Move (S), Miss Construction (D), Spetsnaz (S), Nachtmahr (A), Absolute Body Control (B), Die Krupps (D)
This was the last day. After three long days with lots of concerts and short nights, we were pretty exhausted already. So we took it easy at the last day and started again with the usual breakfast at the MORITZBASTEI which we extended with some friends to some hours, sitting in the cosy place, until we finally went to the KOHLRABIZIRKUS where we spent the whole day and ended out festival.

Ragnarök Festival Day 2: ELEXORIEN, TRIMONIUM, TROLLFEST, WOLFCHANT, XIV DARK CENTURIES, BATTLELORE, HELRUNAR, ARKONA, MENHIR, HAGGARD
The night was relatively short but I was ready for this day after a nice and warm shower and a real good breakfast in our hostel. Still some time remained for the first interesting band ELEXORIEN so I was able to have a brief overview of the festival area and the city. The majority of cars on the roadside seemed relatively unharmed for this night however the pavement in the city mediated another sight I could spot everything from broken beer bottles to camping equipment and torn out street poles and even the garbage vastly piled on the street. This view was not really a nice thank for the residents.
