P60, Amstelveen, The Netherlands
26 August 2011
Sworn Enemy, Misconduct, My City Burning, Better left Buried
I had been looking forward to an evening of hardcore punk / metal at P60 in Amstelveen. Unfortunately, not many people were thinking the same and P60 was filled with just a small group of people that can hardly be called an audience: a tough job for the four national and international hardcore and punk bands that filled the evening’s line-up at P60, Amstelveen, The Netherlands.

Schlachthof, Wiesbaden, Germany
19th July 2011
The Creepshow with special guest Koffin Kats
As I heard for the first time, that THE CREEPSHOW would come to visit Europe, I was quite excited what this outstanding band has in store when playing live. Like usual, I was gathering all my friends at the railway station and driving roundabout 120 kilometres from my hometown, to the location called Schlachthof in Wiesbaden. Heading for the location I was a little bit surprised because I expected something bigger… but for I’m enjoying cosy clubs due to their atmosphere, I was looking forward to listening to some good punk ´n roll and Psychobilly!

Dinkelsbühl, Germany
18th - 20th August, 2011
Summerbreeze Festival Day 2: Secrets of the Moon, Kataklysm, Neaera, Bolt Thrower, Helrunar, Enslaved, Interment, Rev 16:8, Skeletonwitch, Nervecell
This Friday began in a rather unpleasant way - at six o’clock in the morning (many people might just have gotten into their tents after a long night of partying), hell broke loose - an immense thunderstorm faced the festival area, tents got wet, awnings flew around the camp-ground and unfortunately, people got injured (still nothing compared with what happened at Pukkelpop the night before). By the time the first concerts started, the weather had calmed itself a bit, and luckily, the announced storm for the afternoon did not take place.

Airfield Drispenstedt, Hildesheim, Germany
13th - 14th August 2011
M’era Luna Festival 2011 Day 1 Main Stage: Within Temptation, ASP, Apocalyptica, Blutengel, Equilibrium, Mesh, Leaves Eyes, Qntal, Omnia, Ostfront, Winterspring
High summer for a certain part of the population has a different meaning, for this is the month when an airfield in Hildesheim, Germany was the scenery for the next incarnation of the renowned M’era Luna festival. In 2011 the tradition continued and oddly dressed dark people from almost every corner of Europe and beyond got packed and travelled long distances when the mentioned airfield was kind of rebuild to become the festival’s home for two days. In fact, this year it were three days with the Friday evening presenting not only a party at the hanger to warm up but also readings of three famous writers, namely Markus Heitz, Christoph Hagebusch and Christian von Aster.

Palladium, Cologne, Germany
29th August 2011
The Offspring & Sondaschule
THE OFFSPRING were playing their one and only German concert on 29th August in Cologne. Originally planned for the E-Werk, it soon was obvious that this location would be much too small and so, the show was moved across the street into the bigger Palladium. Anyway, the concert was sold-out. Anyone in the area was eager to see the US Punk rockers.
