The long way home

After a hectic summer, various examples of ups and downs, a majority of ups fortunately enough, I am back to haunt these pages with updates on what I think would be rocking to share with you. For this coming back update post I will compile my list of the most positive musical happenings from my POW:

1. Roskilde Festival 2006, especially the performances of Roger Waters, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Death Cab for Cutie, Kanye West, Matisyahu.
2. Robbie Williams at Parken. What a grand show, everybody and their neighbours were there. And we all had to take the same train home.
3. Muse in Montreal. The show was delayed due to gallons of rain that decided to pour down on our scarcely clad bodies 20min before planned show start. The mosh pit became a mush pit.
4. Tina Dickow at Århus Festival. This time around, the rain actually made the show even better than it should have been.
5. Matmos at Voxhall. If mental illness had a sound it would sound like Norwegian warm-up act Lesser. In the non-cool way. She seemed to think it was innovative to laugh witch-like into a vocal distorter. Matmos on the other hand did a great down-to-earth set, in which nothing was missing but simply one thing too much: harpist Zeena Parkins.
