Matrix, Bochum, Germany
29th October 2006
In Strict Confidence, Conjure One, Frozen Plasma
On Sunday, 29th October I went into the "Matrix" in Bochum to visit the 3 electro bands IN STRICT CONFIDENCE, CONJURE ONE and FROZEN PLASMA. The "Matrix" in Bochum is a very nice location - one of the biggest and most famous gothic locations in the German industrial area "Ruhrgebiet". Formerly it was a brewery and inside there are several areas. When I arrived at half past seven, the outer doors were open and a lot of people were still waiting in the foyer. Just in time at 8 o'clock the evening started with FROZEN PLASMA.

Röhre, Stuttgart, Germany
28th September 2006
Bif Naked, The Vincent Black Shadow, Neurosonic
Reminding the audience of Bif Naked at the Taubertal Festival, I felt a little bit unsure what to expect of this evening. I met her for an interview right before the show and we talked in her tour bus. I got to know a very nice and friendly woman. She talked a lot about her dogs and hobbies and about religion. With this preparation I was looking forward to the concert. Whatever went wrong at the Taubertal festival, this time it was going to be a great evening. Unfortunately there weren’t many guests at the entrance and so I was a little bit concerned, whether this will be a successful evening for the musicians or not. I only knew “Die Röhre” of some parties, but I had never been there for a concert.

Rockfabrik, Ludwigsburg, GermanyOctober 4th, 2006
Communic, Scar Symmetry
For many years now, the Rockfabrik in Ludwigsburg has been a meeting place for Metal heads in the Southwest of Germany; with a diversified programme and little, but nice concert events it is always worth to spend a night there. This Wednesday evening I looked forward to the Swedish guys from SCAR SYMMETRY, whom I had already seen on the Summer Breeze Festival this year; the evenings second act was to be the Norwegian band COMMUNIC, of which, I must admit, I had never heard before this event. When I arrived at the venue, about one hundred people had gathered in the small Club 2 on the buildings second floor; I could also spot a Nuclear Blast promotion stand. There was enough time to look around and get a drink before Christian Älvestam and his band mates entered the stage. http://www.rockfabrik-ludwigsburg.de/.

Blue Note, Poznan, Poland22nd September 2006
Alternative Mix Tour: Digital Factor, Desdemona, Greyhound, NUN
Alternative Mix Tour organized by Na Rzekach Art took place in Poznan in the spatial and stylish club Blue Note. Though the line-up seemed to be highly attractive, the number of audience was rather depressing. However, the main reason we came to the festival - the bands NUN, Greyhound, Desdemona and Digital Factor - didn't disappoint our expectations and did very fine.
