Ankkarock 2.8.2009

[myntti]

Last weekend I spent my Sunday at Ankkarock in Vantaa. It was a long day... I got up at seven in the morning (the bus left quite early) and returned home around 2 a.m. In addition to the bands I went there to see, I ended up watching Pintandwefall's gig in its entirety (those girls were energetic and funny!), the tail-end of Apulanta's set and also Volbeat's gig (they were a bit boring, imo). Oh, and Testament's gig was shown also on Korsolava stage's screens, so I saw parts of their show, too. (Lots of pit action going on in there. Yikes!)

The three I actually wanted to see:

According to Mathias, they were still a bit tired and hungover...

It looks like no-one has uploaded Paid in Full, Black Sheep, In Black and White, FullMoon or White Pearl Black Oceans. Instead of any of those, we've got the national anthem... ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdJelXFns2M
