Raismes Fest 2008 (Day 2)Château de la Princesse d'Arenberg, Raismes, France
13th-14th September 2008
Raismes Fest 2008 - Day 2: Swamp, Interria, Nedra, Die Apokalyprischen Reiter, Würm, Soul Doctor, Amartia, Machiavel, Wizard Kind, Korpiklaani, Winterland, Uli Jon Roth, Gamma Ray
After a short but good night’s sleep, we were back for more. The weather had taken a turn for the better. It seemed we’re going to keep it dry today. And lucky us, we even got a bit of autumn sunshine. Hoping the sun would convince some more people to come and enjoy the performances and spend their money, we made our way to the Discovery Scene, anxious to get this second and final part of the RaismesFest started. My legs were killing me, but that would soon be forgotten.

Youth club Eastend, Berlin, Germany11th October 2008
Fan club concert 2008 - Dreadful Shadows supported by Eminence Of Darkness
The evening of the 11th October was quite cold, but the DREADFUL SHADOWS fans in front of the Eastend-doors were waiting for opening with a smile. Of course! It was a rare chance to see the old formation. I arrived ca. 6:45pm after a long journey through Berlin. The youth club Eastend was not centred and distances in Berlin could be veeeery long. I had a fear that it could be too far away for some fans and the club wouldn’t be filled up with 400 people. But I erred. Many of them came from all over Germany, and not only from Germany but also from all over Europe. There was also someone coming from the USA even. Some of them were also guest at the POPCOMM concert of SOLAR FAKE (Advanced Electronic Festival) and joined Sven Friedrich twice in a few days.
