König-Pilsener Arena, Oberhausen, Germany
29th December 2007
On a Dark Winters Night: Van Canto, Tarot, Jesus on Extasy, Dope Stars Inc., Amorphis, Blind, Letzte Instanz, Nightwish
It was a fixed date for every Gothic and Metal Fan when the festival was guest in Oberhausen even though the information on the line-up were rather spare, the name NIGHTWISH was enough to make the hearts of Metal Fans leap for joy and more than once we saw people with NIGHTWISH shirts passing us by. The venue got fuller and fuller but unfortunately a truck with basic equipment for the stage had not arrived yet and so everyone was wondering when the show would finally start. After a long waiting time, the show finally started with a delay of two and a half hours...

Live Music Hall, Cologne, Germany17th December 2007
THE HUMAN LEAGUE & ONETWO
THE HUMAN LEAGUE, legendary and groundbreaking Synth Pop pioneers of the 1980s, made their live reunion a couple of years ago and proved that their are still a force to be reckoned with. In winter 2007 they returned to the road with a pretty unusual concept: the ‘Dare!’ tour, named after THE HUMAN LEAGUE’s most critically acclaimed and most successful album from 1981! As unorthodox it is to focus a tour a 26 year old album, the fans truly looked forward to this special event.

The Dark Storm Festivals in Chemnitz and Berlin are some kind of tradition for Christmas. Like last year, we made it again to the festival in Chemnitz on 25th December, again with well-known bands of different fields of dark music. Lovers of Electro, Goth and even medieval music have been satisfied during the evening at the Stadthalle, where lots of people had gathered for this event - more than 3,000 to be exact. So, the venue was really packed and granted for a good mood during the evening.
