so, i'm back from Budapest/Sziget :D it was amazing, though if the crowd wasn't pushing during Radiohead's set it could be even more amazing lmao :wacky:

 

i've seen 4 bands that day (Saturday, 12th), some short reviews lol :

 

Sons and Daugthers: a very interesting band with the female singer. i liked them, although they were the "weakest" of those 4 i've seen that evening, but still a good, full of energy performance

 

dEUS: WOW! one of the best non-UK bands in Europe. dEUS was made for festivals. the lead singer Tom Barman is a real showman: he sings, dances, jumps etc. (once he fall down during one of his jumps lol haha). great band! you should check them out!!!

 

Heaven Street Seven: a hungarian, alternative rock-britpop band with meaningful lyrics. they are like the only hungarian artist that i really liked during 6 years that i was living in Budapest. great great band, although live they are not as good as in studio (the 2nd part of their set was a bit boring). not comparable to dEUS or Radiohead

 

Radiohead: a band because of which i went to Budapest this year and missed 2 days of the school too. Thom's voice was great (i was a bit afraid, because during the US tour his voice was creepy sometimes, but now it's as good as 3-4 years ago during the HTTT (pre-)tour), Colin's pink-yellow a bit "slinky" t-shirt at the beginning was awesome :lol:, Ed was rocking during songs like Just, 2+2=5 or Paranoid Android :cool3:, Jonny was Jonny like always: modest and humble, but at the same time perfect for this evening (i couldn't stop control myself and shouted "Jonny Greenwood!!!!!" after Paranoid Android :lol: - consequence: i lost my voice after the concert lol), Phil's drumming was rhythmic and dynamic :nice:

Radiohead played "their greatest hits" mixed with some live favourites like The Gloaming or Bones

best evening of my life!

 

i was dancing, singing, drinking and etc :nice: Radiohead is da best :thumbsup: especially live!

 

10.0

Fuck, I'm so happy for you, Nikky boy :dance:

 

 

Not true, I'm more envious :laugh1:

 

But I can imagine how excited you were, that probably was a really amazing night. Especially I loved this:

 

i couldn't stop control myself and shouted "Jonny Greenwood!!!!!" after Paranoid Android

Haha can picture that, lmao.

 

Lucky fellow.

Thanks for the review Nik!

 

Great that you had a good time! :)

 

I wish I could've been there too......Radiohead live must be amazing........

but the crowd (most of people were foreign) was crazy as hell :wacky: one of the guys said: "this is what it's all about: people are coming together and singing Radiohead songs"

 

"coming together" - see: pushing, pushing and pushing :wacko:

only if everyone was a RH fan there. some people were standing and listening without singing. some of them weren't even dancing during Idioteque, 15 Step and The Gloaming :wacko:

 

 

by the way during the The National Anthem some security guys helped me to sneak out of that "crazy" sector :o... though my great places in the middle 7th-8th row were lost and i watched the rest of the gig from the left side of the 1st-2nd row (i didn't see Colin and Phil during the most of songs :thinking: )

only if everyone was a RH fan there. some people were standing and listening without singing. some of them weren't even dancing during Idioteque' date=' 15 Step and The Gloaming :wacko:[/quote']

Bastards, they could give their tickets to me then... How is it possible to come to the RH concert and not even sing or dance while Idioteque? Boo :disappointed:

Let's go all togrther next time :idea2:

 

By the way, Nik, how much did you pay for the ticket?

 

6,000 Hungarian Forint = 21.91116 Euro

 

and there were many russians by the way i've even seen a russian flag :o

Cool pics Nik:nice:

 

although some are a bit dark...but better than nothing...:wink:

Now I'm jealous..:P

Haha Russians rule the world :wacko:

 

And I actually thought it's more expensive, huh.

^ @ Jules why don't you come then, let's say next year? :P

it's a great festival and people are happy and very friendly after some liters of alcohol :wacky: so it's worth to go there for a week.

 

a non-camping weekly ticket was less than 100 Euros this year

a camping weekly ticket was around 110-115 Euros. i think it's not that expensive

Next year?

that's a good year....I've finished school then...and maybe enough time....haha....:D

 

a time when i will be independent....hehe...

 

maybe I'm lucky and they'll come to Rock am Ring next year...that's only 15 km away from me...:nice:
