Entry on Amphi Sunday starts with a 5-minute delay. Even though it’s still early in the morning and many partied late into the night yesterday, a fairly long line has already formed in front of the Tanzbrunnen area. But when the gates open, it only takes a few minutes for us to find our spot in front of the stage. For me, being in the front row is a must for today’s opener on the Main Stage. After all, J:DEAD, one of my highlights of the day, is scheduled for the morning.

Summer time is festival time, and at the end of July, that mainly means it’s Amphi time.

The March Violets
The Leeds Goth / Alternative scene has over the years become a finely woven tapestry - whose initial threads were spun way back at the beginning of the 80s with bands like the SISTERS OF MERCY. RED LORRY, YELLOW LORRY (try saying that a few times in a row) and THE MARCH VIOLETS. It is the latter of these for whom the crowds gather tonight.
