Madness - “C’est La Vie Summer Tour 2024” - Support: Boss Capone & Patsy
MADNESS is one of the representatives who popularised Ska-music in the 1980s and made it accessible to a wider audience. A style of music that has its roots in reggae and became better known beyond the borders of its home country Jamaica as early as the 1950s. On their “C’est La Vie Summer Tour 2024”, the British boys from MADNESS visited the Palladium in Cologne. Visitors even came to Cologne from neighbouring countries. There were fans from the Netherlands, France and even the United Kingdom. Everyone wanted the same thing, good music and to see the still active MADNESS live again. BOSS CAPONE & PATSY travelled from the Netherlands as the support band. The band is no longer unknown in the Ska and Reggae scene. Even before BOSS CAPONE & PATSY took to the stage, the visitors were entertained by a DJ with classic Reggae and Ska.

Moby - “Play 25 2024” - Support: Lady Blackbird
MOBY is one of the most extraordinary artists on this planet. Whether as a DJ or as a producer for many well-known artists, he made a name for himself early on. The multi-instrumentalist sometimes takes a different approach to his music and uses full orchestras or choirs, for example. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of his album Play, MOBY toured Europe and also made a stop in Düsseldorf. He was joined by LADY BLACKBIRD as a support artist.

6th to 8th September 2024
NCN 17 Day 3 with Tension Control, Stoneman, Trans-X, Klutæ, Northern Lite, Train to Spain, Merciful Nuns, Frozen Plasma, Zeraphine, CosmoBrigade, Klez.E, Aux Animaux, Ductape, NNHMN, Utopiae, ICD-10, The Devil’s Trade, Har Belex, C. Gina Riot, Jürgen Müller and Christian von Aster
Today we’re once again starting the festival day with a hearty breakfast. It seems like summer is making one last stand against the upcoming autumn. Temperatures around 30°C are expected again today. Thunderstorms are forecasted for the evening, so we better be prepared and pack our rain ponchos. Better to have them, than to need them. Throughout the day, we’ll be keeping a close eye on the rain radar. The forecast for the festival’s closing doesn’t look good in the morning. The performance by NORTHERN LITE might literally get rained out. So, for now, we just have to hope and be prepared.
