Mmm... what to say about the Fun And Crust festival ? Not much if you ask me. It was a very small festival somewhere in the middle of "Hill Billy Land". It felt like the local farmers wanted something else then a yearly barbeque where they fry their cows and goats... Some wise ass must have said: "Hey what about a metal festival ?" And so it was... Höchstenbach now has its very own metal festival. With bands that are so proud of their nationality, that they hire fans to wave their home flags during the whole duration of the concert. With beer that is so warm, that you start to wonder if this is directly coming from the toilets. With a field so rocky, that you would look like Freddy Krueger after stage diving and landing on the ground with your face. With a backstage so charming, that you would feel right at home with all the Hillbillies surrounding you. With rockers so cool, that they rape a 13 year old and get the whole festival area sealed off by the police... I had a good time, but this whole thing made me kinda bitter. Being a father myself, I can't imagine being confronted with the horror that this girl's parents must have gone through after hearing this news. Sorry if I'm being so negative... but that just the way I feel about this. Anyway, it was great seeing Marcus & Jochen again, it was great to see Maike, Ruud, Melantrys & Alex again. The Clawz ruled... end of story.
