Northern Light, The World Domination
After I have seen both bands not long ago – exactly in November – in Münster during a club night I was looking very much forward a usual club gig. After the band took place in the Bundesvision Song Contest (where Oomph! Was the winner) the band is drawing more and more attention. In their home town Erfurt in Thuringia, they are playing in front of some thousands of people. But not in Krefeld, there they were scheduled for the small club in the Kulturfabrik which means it was a very intimate concert. Support act was again THE WORLD DOMINATION.

Rock Line, Tournai, BelgiumRock Line is a small venue, actually a “rock café” where the backstage is also the front stage! The nice thing about this is that as soon as you enter the room you meet with the band members, can have a chat and eventually a beer with them. The inconvenience is that the stage is tiny and the light very poor, just a few static spots and a couple of disco like gobo flowers, which does not make the life of the photographer easy. On the other hand, as you can walk beside the stage, it is an opportunity to get closer to the drummers, which is quite unusual but an interesting and vibrating experience.

Die Happy, Itchy Poopzkid
In the year 2000, there was hardly a day passing without DIE HAPPY's song "Supersonic Speed" played by some radio station or on some music channel in Germany; nearly every teenager or person interested in pop/rock music knew them, or at least this one song. The album of the same name, their first long player with really professional production, brought them relatively high chart entries in Germany and was the key to their success. Nowadays it has become a little quieter around the band from Ulm/Germany, though they are still quite successful. I had already seen, or plain-spoken heard them at the South Side Open Air Festival in 2001, where they played at about 11 in the morning. This evening I was curious to see them perform at a much better and more adequate time of day, and also was looking forward to their support band - ITCHY POOPZKID - of which I had previously already heard quite a lot of good things. The Longhorn in Stuttgart was well filled with fans of all ages and styles, and with a little delay the good-humoured guys from ITCHY POOPZKID entered the stage.

ADVANCED ELECTRONICS FESTIVAL: Suicide Commando, Soman, Frozen Plasma, Unter Null
Just three days before the event I got my ticket because I only shortly decided to visit the festival. The Advanced Electronics Festival celebrated the fifth edition of the “Advanced Electronics” sampler series. So I couldn’t let the chance go to enjoy the performance of one of the most known acts in scene since nearly 20 years. As I arrived at the Kulturfabrik most of the parking-lot wasn’t filled so far and entering the hall I recognized that it wasn’t filled well either. The concert didn’t seem to be sold out. Until the middle of the first band performance only a few people filled the hall.
