A long drive home, I slept most of the way and once in the flat I fell on the bed and remembered how soft duvets can be. A state a exhaustion, happiness mixed with sadness that it was so quickly over.
Ah Fusion! Tiring, messy, year 2000 hippies and people in dreamy states dancing endlessly. The music goes on 24/7, which, if you go to rock festivals, may be unusual as music stops during most of the night (except for the people in the tent next to you who just have to play Bob Marley and the Wailers on repeat during the entire festival time – Roskilde 2006). But here it never stopped. And what a joy that was! I have to admit that I became addicted to the Turmbühne area – where live delights such as Anton Piet and Bart Skils played and Monika Kruse dj:ed. I just love minimal.
There was also the possibility to dance to trance, drum and bass and hear dub bands. On Sunday I had my last festival meal to a band screaming about capitalism for the last 40 years if I understood the German correctly. I quickly directed my steps to Turmbühne…
I will go back next year, no doubt. I was hoping for magda moment like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVrOo2b_r9o&feature=related, or simply someone else playing Jason Emsley. But still, it was excellent!
post to be updated with more details once home tonight…
