What I have done and where I have been. End of the June I headed for Helsinki once again and the destination was Tuska open air metal festival. I had tickets for the three days like always and I can say those days passed fast. The band settings wasn't so special this year but I have a good time anyway. From my viewpoint the most expected orchestra was Ministry which was also the last performer. I was standing in the front of the stage and I'm probably bitter rest of my life because I didn't manage to get a touch with Jourgenson when he shook hands with the audience (it was really fuckin near) I also managed to get a drumstick to my head but then someone else took it. The gig was good anyway :) I also checked for among other things Megadeth (which was as boring as I had thought), Mokoma (which is always greate), Insomnium, Swallow the Sun, Napalm death and Overkill. I would have liked to see Lamb of God but then happened what happened. They withdrawed.
My outfit (sorry about the quality, I had my old camera which is a bit broken and that's why I didn't take so many pictures)
Ministry
After Tuska I went to my parent's place because my intention was to go Lumous gothic festival which was arranged the next weekend. Everything sucked perfectly anyway and I ended up lie under the blanket. On thursday my voice was totally lost and I didn't have any other choice than revoke the hotel reservation. It would have been useless to go there because I probably would have been sitting alone in the dark corner without possibilities to talk with anyone.
I don't know how I managed to get a flu in the middle of the summer but this is just my luck.
On saturday morning after being ill five days I decided to be enough healthy to go Ruisrock. My voice was alraedy a bit better and it was possible to talk more than one word. I bought a ticket and took a bus and hoped it wouldn't rain like they promised. The day was really hot and it was so cool to be in Ruisrock after the many years.
End of the trip.
It was so boring to come back home after two wonderful weekends but I think the new adventures will find me.
