On Friday, the high light of the day(Friday) was probably Dropkick Murphys. I had never seen them before, and I was quite impressed. Dropkick Murphys play Celtic punk, which  puts you in the mood for dancing, singing and drinking beer. Their vibe was amazing, and they knew how to entertain the audience.  Though I could probably not sit down and listen through a whole album by them non stop, I am glad I have seen them live. Their music is music I'd put on at a party. To round the concert off, they finished with a tribute to AC/DC by playing TNT. It was really cool.

I didn't take any pictures from the festival because I didn't bring my camera, biggest mistake ever. But if it had gotten wet or stolen, that would've been a

Last weekend I went to Hellfest in Clisson, France. I thought I'd write a few reviews of some of the bands I saw when I was there, and a review of the festival itself. I saw in total 25 bands, so I will probably not write a review for all of them. First of all... Christian and I startet our long journey on Wednesday June 13th. This year we decided to try out the coach provided by Argon Events. It costed us about £175 return, I think. Concidering the fact that you would probably end up paying the same or more for flights/train, I thought it was a pretty good deal. The coach picked us up in Sheffield and took us straight to the festival door. And it had a break ever 3-4 hours or so. The only downside was that it took us about 18 hours or so to get there.

We arrived at the festival on Thursday around midday. Due to some construction work of some sort, the festival has moved slightly. For those of you who know the festival, it means that the festival and camp site is all on the same side of the road. The changes weren't massive, but they were of course noticable. I think I prefer the new layout. Anyway... we popped up out two second tent and pegged it down. Our neighbours were from a Southern American country (my knowledge of flags isn't that good, but they spoke spanish, I think). They were quite nice, and helped us with the tent and lent us a hammer. I've never used a pop-up tent, so it was good to have someone to help you prevent it from leaking (seen as the weather forecast for the weekend was quite bad).

We didn't do much on Thursday. We went to the supermarket, and we checked out Metal Corner. That is a big tent with lots of seats and tables. They also had a Rocksmith truck and a massive screen (which played music until like 4AM). It was quite funny, because if Christian has a chance to play guitar, he will play! Rocksmith is a new game you can plug your REAL guitar into, and play. It is like Guitar Hero, I suppose, only real. Christian battled some random French guy and beat him... BADLY! He had about 13000 more points than him.
