I came back from the Novarock yesterday. Unfortunately I had to leave before The Killers and Mando Diao, because I would have been to tired to drive after the concerts. Too hot, too much dancing, too much walking (about 2 km from car to tent)

At least I saw The Smashing Pumpkins, one of the most important bands in my music-life. And I have to say, they kicked ass. I think this was the best concert I’ve seen so far.

Also good were: Therapy and Clawfinger (of course they were, they always are), Incubus, 30 Seconds to Mars, Linking Park, Me First and The Gimme Gimmes, The Editors (although I haven’t seen much of them). Anyway, I still feel stiff and aching, but I can’t wait for the next festival (Sziget or probably Urban Art Forms in Wiesen). And I think next years Novarock will have me again (if the lineup is right).
