GOD

[futtermeinego]

Nothing more to say, really.

[hansndans]

yeah, i know what u mean, few now a days bands live up to my expectations. For example QOTSA, wolfmother and Ornatos violeta (the last are portuguese but you should give it a listen)

[futtermeinego]

I will, thank you. Oh, and wolfmother are terrific! Very 70s, I enjoy their music a lot. But ya know... My soul belongs to Dylan and Young, nothing even remotly resembles their work. They are poets, not entertainers.

[hansndans]

the Hives sucked so hard x). I didnt even stay there long enough to watch within temptation cuse i hate it. I can't stand hiphop either, but the way he "raps" his different and its not completely bad. It makes the band's style stand out.

[futtermeinego]

True, true. But it still annoys me, with those solos I think the band deserved a real rock n roll singer. But that's just me! I'm not into modern music, you know, it's hard for me to like that kind of contemporary music.

[azadelta07]

that's not within tempation (they played at the second day, what a crap), that's rage against the machine.

I don't like hip hop either, but the mix they did with rap and hard/rock was a big inovation.

and i liked the hives, they're a good rock band. not one of the best, but a good one.

[hansndans]

listen to "Chaga" , their best in my opinion

[futtermeinego]

You know, RATM are really good musicians, Tom Morello is a terrific guitar player! But what I can't stand is the was the vocalist sings. I don't like hiphop, I actualy can't stand it. I was in the second row, in the left, and got completely smashed also. But I like moshing, so no big deal :)

But the worst concerts of the festival were, in my opinion The Hives and Within Temptation. They were so bad, I had to leave.

[hansndans]

I wa really lookin forward to see john butler, known him for a while now, but those drum and bass solos were sothing out of this world =O. I kinda liked rage against the machine too, the only problem was the crown which was too agressive, even for me and I love mosh and crowd surfing. i couldnt even enjoy the concert, I was almost in the front and i got smashed x)
