Moravsky Krumlov Castle, Moravsky Krumlov, Czech Republic
19th to 21st August 2021
Rock Castle Festival 2021 Day 2 with Winterstorm, Waltari, Citron, The 69 Eyes and Sabaton

I woke up with THAT festival feeling, you know what I mean… and I could hardly believe it, that this feeling was back after a year with concerts that came with many restrictions. When I checked the festivals social media for updates, there were sad news. A member of SEPTICFLESH was seriously ill and so the band couldn’t make it to the festival.

I didn’t know how much I missed this until I started packing my bags and cameras for a trip to Prague again. The excitement of travelling and the prospect of seeing my favourite bands again made my blood run faster. And indeed, the event met all my expectations and even exceeded them in the finest possible way!

Let’s Rock the North East Festival 2021 with Howard Jones, The Human League, OMD, ABC, Midge Ure’s Electronica, Heaven 17, Toyah and more…

Let’s Rock is a festival held during the summer months throughout the UK in various cities. It is a very popular festival, with many thousands of people in the crowd - attracting many of the big names to play. I attended the full day at Herrington Park, Sunderland, but will only cover the bands that will appeal to followers of Reflections of Darkness (or that I personally like, ha ha!).

Klein Strand, Oostende, Belgium
26th to 29th August 2021
W-Festival 2021 Day 4 with Dr & The Medics, Snap! & Haddaway, Wegsfeer, Absynthe Minded, The House Of Love, The Christians, Blancmange, Starship, The Jacksons

The pit in front of the stage is packed with people, eagerly waiting for the last show of W-Festival to start. It is 20 minutes to ten, when suddenly the lights go out. People are screaming, shouting of joy, when they hear the first tunes of THE JACKSONS - but it is not time yet, they need to be patient a bit longer. It is only a short film about the life of the famous musicians. Pictures are flickering over the huge screens, pictures from the old days, when the family was united.
