Off Festival @ Mysłowice – 6/7/8/9/ VIII 2009

(Disclamer: Dear People Who Take Care Of Our Roads And Trains – we live in a country of 40 million, with blooming economy and culture, with more and more tourists comming each year. And it took me about 9 hours to get from one side of the country to another, and it will take me more to get back to Gdynia, because all neat train connections were..cancelled. What the funk is that?)

Thanks to Utek, we started our journey on Wednesday, drove almost through the whole country and ended up in Tychy, a nice town near Mysłowice, where Off is taking place.

Before the first day shows we hanged out with Hennessy Williams, a bootleger from Warsaw, who’s preparing loads and loads of boots from this years Off (be sure to check the list on his site!). We saw three shows (great performance by Paristetris and The Complainer & The Complainers!), talked with Jarek Szubrycht (we’re both so excited that Sun 0))) are playing during Unsound Festival!) and headed back home. A short prelude before a veeery long weekend full of space rock, electronic monsters and experiments from music magicians from all around the globe. Cheers!

Heineken Open’er Festival 2009 @ Babie Doły, Gdynia – 2/3/4/5 VI 2009

Some shots from the biggest music festival in Poland! The first day brought great gigs from Peter Bjorn & John and Arctic Monkeys (don’t like them on the CD’s but the concert was very nice!), and a major disappointment for me: Basement Jaxx‘s concert.  Saw them three years ago and the performances just can’t compare.

I just had a blast with M83 – the best gig of the fest (along with Faith No More) and the best gig of the year. Really:

After three songs I was hooked and the pictures from it have stuck into my brain and don’t want to come out. I was so dead-tired but still managed to jump through the whole concert. One of my friends took a photo of me shooting the band so I’ve got a nice souvenir (thanks Ania!). Worth every second of it. Will the next year bring a performance such as this one for me? Pearl Jam are on their way so it will probably beat all!
