ROCKEZINE AT Roadburn

This year is the 10th anniversary of Roadburn, a website specialised in stoner rock and probably the biggest and most respected in the world.
What better way to celebrate than a stoner festival? So when initiator Walter Hoeijmakers invited us, we didn’t say no. And like a real birthday boy he even offered free tickets to the Rockezine readers. Even if the winners had half the fun we had, they had a blast.
The cooperation with 013 seemed to work out fine, because I’ve never been at a festival that was so well organised. Perfection in the detail: no mucky backdrops, but classy projections of the band’s logos; colourful cult video projections behind the large stage in The Choice; a clear program sheet in 70s style and last but certainly not least: a striking program on al 3 stages.
Because of the overwhelming performances on all of the stages and the wild crowd, we were only able to cover a small part of this great festival.

Congratulations to the birthday boy, on every aspect! Respect for keeping up their good work for 10 years now and not in the least for throwing a birthday party as cool and perfect as this.
Thank you for the invitation!
