Wacken Open Air, Wacken, GermanyAugust 6th 2005
Zyklon, Suffocation, Dissection, Axel Rudi Pell, Holy Moses, Finntroll, Hammerfall, Kreator, Accept, Sentenced
The last day of this heavy festival. It was hard in many ways: struggling in the mud, rain and coldness. Sometimes tired or drunk. Short nights and long days, but the real metal head will survive. That is also the spirit of festivals: to share that feeling. Luckily the weather was better, so the good atmosphere came back. The sunshine was more then welcome. Also the coffee in the village was something who was very appreciated.

Kammgarn – Cotton Club, Kaiserslautern, Germany
2nd September 2005
Faun - Renaissance Tour 2005 & Gothic Slide Show
The beginning of the new season started with a “dark highlight” in the Cotton Club. Faun presented their new Album “Renaissance” and Thomas Adorff showed some of his Gothic Portraits before the show began. The small club was filled with a lot of Goth people in any age - from teens up to some pensioners. The mood in the club was filled with fantasy flair. The stage was spangled with some ivy branches and filled with dark blue and green lights.

Lowlands, Biddinghuizen, the NetherlandsAugust 20th 2005
Apocalyptica, Nightwish, Marilyn Manson
Lowlands is a festival where people not only come for the music. There is theatre, comedians and writers, but also politicians in discussions; Ruud Lubbers is there to warn us about the enviroment. Luckely the bad weather passed this area and the sunshine makes it more comfertable. Three days of this festival and it brings the visitor in a totally different mood: more relaxed and tolerant. More then 50.000 people are walking around and between all those attractive tents. There is metal this weekend, and although it is not much, it is high quality.

013, Tilburg, The NetherlandsSeptember 2nd 2005
In Extremo and Heidevolk
On a hot summers day many had gathered in the even warmer 013 in Tilburg. When we arrived the first band had already started. The venue was filled although there was space between all people. During the evening someone even fainted due to the heat. Besides this we were all in for a great evening with great music and enthusiasm, it was definitely a night to remember.
