Just before the Swedish EBM duo Spetsnaz was able to enter the stage the festival moderator announced a severe weather warning and they were hoping that they would not have to evacuate the festival as Cologne already was under water. Luckily, the severe weather passed by Gelsenkirchen and the party could go on.

Originally, at that slot the band Seasurfer should be playing but due to personal reasons they had to cancel on short notice. As substitute the Bottrop band Pre/Verse spontaneously stepped in. The electro-rocker mixed different sound elements what made it to a very attractive mixture.

With the Blackfield I went to a festival of the black scene which was something completely different to me. Unfortunately, it should take place for the last time ever this year due to several reasons (mainly financial ones) but that did not do any harm to the good atmosphere.
