Summer Breeze Open Air Day 4: 1349, The Crown, My Dying Bride, Children of Bodom, Dark Funeral, Warbringer, Sepultura, Posinblack, Van Canto, Be’lakor
A new and last day at the Summer Breeze Festival - as usual, the heat woke most people up and so I went to meet up with some people, spending the time talking, watching some bands. Especially the evening program was going to be a tough one with lots of enjoyable bands and no time for a rest.

Wacken Open Air, Wacken, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany5th - 7th August 2010
Wacken Open Air Day 2 - Wackinger Stage: Equilibrium, Letzte Instanz, Schelmisch
The Wackinger stage is a far smaller stage, set in the Wackinger village where all of the medieval marketers are, and as such has a slightly more off the wall ambience to it. Of all the stages at Wacken it's my favourite, being far more chilled out and less hectic than the main arenas. That doesn't mean however that the standard of the bands is any less and the three on Friday night proved to be an awesome combination.

Andernach, Germany28th August 2010
Summer’s End Open Air: Subway to Sally, Die Apokalyptischen Reiter, Epica, Tanzwut, Fiddler's Green, Schelmish, Mono Inc, Sons of Seasons
And so I went for a one day festival with a killer line-up, through the beautiful Mosel valley to Andernach in Germany, certain of a great day. The festival site is located just a short drive from Andernach, with hard standing, which, given the unfortunate weather, was a Godsend. It’s worth organizers of festivals bearing this kind of thing in mind as anyone who was at Glastonbury during the mud year will vouch for. So, with nice dry feet I watched a plethora of talent from across Germany and the Netherlands.

Tanzbrunnen, Cologne, Germany2nd September 2010
Runrig, Seth Lakeman
For over 30 years we can enjoy the wonderful Gaelic-Scottish folk music mixed with modern rock music from RUNRIG. They wake up emotions and let you dream, but also just dance and celebrate. After the cancellation of the German spring tour the band was now playing the rescheduled shows in August and September.

Kulturpark, Deutzen, Germany3rd - 5th September 2010
Nocturnal Culture Night 5 Day 1: Downstairs Left, In The Nursery, Vomito Negro, Die Art, Iris, The House Of Usher, Patenbrigade:Wolff, Tenek, The Pussybats
When in September the summer slowly is fading away and the first trees have the colour of their leaves change, the clock also strikes the end of the festival season, but it also is the time when the Nocturnal Culture Night festival is taking place. In 2010, it was already taking place for the fifth time, but for me as writer it was the first time being at the festival and I was curious how it all would be. But with such acts as TENEK, IRIS or IN THE NURSERY playing the first day, it couldn’t be so bad, could it?
