Denmark, Roskilde

On Friday morning the weather was not much different and still far from summer-like July.

The breakfast served by the host on the doorstep helped a lot. Our plan was to get ready and drive to Roskilde train station with a goal to park our Toyota there. It worked out well and soon we were sitting in a shuffle bus to the festival.

Our arrival was welcome by a storm, which cleaned the air, created some mud and several rainbows too. The act we saw is Kim Gordon performing her noise in one of the side stages. Afterwards we spent some time walking on the festival paths enjoying its food and drinks. Later, exactly one hour before the announced start, we were already holding positions in front of the main stage.

Foo Fighters came in good mood reminding their memories of a Nirvana gig from 1992, on the day Denmark was playing European football championship final. Most probably the gig, which made Roskilde festival quite popular, as far I am concerned.

The FF concert, which gave me this opportunity to fulfil my dream was exceptional! 2 hours and 10 minutes of great mixture of old songs alongside the newest ones, performing “Teacher” too…

It took us some time to leave the vibrant stage area and sit by a closed tent. There a lady told us her life story just to meet her secret man for the first time in coming minutes. That was it for us to leave the festival by midnight and drive back to Kirke Saby.
