Lordi
Lordi, a monsters’ quintet from Finland, plays a kind of hard FM which reminded me of Europe or Kiss to quote famous bands from this genre as examples. The band is composed by Amen, the mummified guitarist, Kalma, the zombie bass player, Kita, the alien drummer and Enary, the Valkyrie goddess keyboardist, all lead by the almighty and evil Lordi, a red-eyed giant monster-singer dressed in armour.

Porcupine Tree and Anathema
While summer is peeking round the corner a huge crowd gathered in the 013 in Tilburg. Ages were differing from around 20 to somewhere around 60 but they all came to listen to the same music. While walking through the crowd one thing stood out, a lot of people wore Pink Floyd shirts. It was no surprise that Anathema played a Pink Floyd cover.

Epica and Nemesea

Inside there was an intimate and nice atmosphere, many were meeting friends and familiar faces from former concerts. Temperature was rising quickly. And fans were screaming to hear their favourite bands. Then finally at nine it was time…
