Wacken Open Air XXI

Wacken (Germany)

Also this year the king of home-organ may not be missing on this festival. I heard of him for the first time round about 10 years ago (to that time at the king of German late night Harald Schmidt) and so I wanted to have this cool trashy home-organ sound for the closure of this day.
I was not disappointed by him. Mambo Kurt pulled out all the stops and got for example one lady onto the stage for a short dance, or a whole group being his GoGo’s. Very funny was the part of his program, where he let the audience decide by applause whether to play a metal classic or pop trash.
All in all very funny. Nothing for every day but for one hour or so, it lifts your spirit.

23.10.2011 Draconian - Metal Female Voices Fest IX at Wieze (B)
As last but two act of the evening Draconian could play the slot of Midnattsol and it should become something very special. The spheric solemn doom metal sounds of Anders Jacobsson and Lisa Johansson do have something very own but fascinating.
