ROCK AM RING: Day Two

Compared to Friday, Saturday was very relaxed. We went to the venue at around 3pm to see Papa Roach - I have to admit that I only knew Last Resort but the atmosphere was awesome. After being a band for 20 years, these guys know how to please such a huge crowd.



After Papa Roach, we had to kill three hours so we walked around on the venue, got something to eat and relaxed a little before Biffy Clyro played. I didn't know them at all but the girls wanted to see them and I don't regret joining them. The vocalist has such a pleasant, powerful voice, I could listen to him forever. They're definitely worth a listen, I'll take a closer look at their current record soon! Go check them out in the meantime!



The next band we watched was Phoenix. Again I didn't know them and I didn't like their performance either. Their vocalist was cute but the band didn't manage to transfer any energy or passion to me, in fact they bored me pretty much. They were okay to watch but if they played in my area, I most likely wouldn't go. 



However, they weren't the worst band I saw on that day, in fact it was Hurts. First of all I don't really like their music, just not my cup of tea. Furthermore the bass wasn't tuned properly but much too loud, I could literally feel my inner organs shaking and I don't need that. To be honest that was annoying as fuck so I couldn't enjoy their performance at all. The only thing I liked was the singer throwing white roses into the crowd, that was cool. 



After waiting for around eight hours, The Killers finally played. I never really found a connection to them until I actually saw them live. The atmosphere was fantastic, everybody was so excited and happy and we danced and jumped and sang and there was confetti and a firework and yeah, I finally realised what an amazing band they actually are. (Unfortunately I couldn't find pics of their show anywhere, sorry for that!)

That was already day two, time flies at a festival, I don't even know. Day three was the craziest, best, most unreal day of my life - more tomorrow!
