Lowlands 2006 (including HIM)

Five days... four nights... Lowlands Festival! Now I look back at it, it was so awesome! The first day, before it all began, was a lot of fun and exciting. And I didn't even realise yet that I was going to see HIM the next day...

Because I was waiting for my friend Daan I didn't really get the chance to be in front, but that didn't make it less good :).. HIM was so fcking awesome! Ville sounded like Ville and looked very good *sigh :)*, Linde wiggled like our Linde, Gas was a 100% cute Gas, Burton rocked his sexy hair .. uh, I mean keybord like Burton ;p, and Mige... wouw Mige was so happy and walking around being Mige!! I was so in 'trance' that I can't even remember what song they played first, but I remember they played It's all tears, Killing loneliness, Join me, the Sacrament, Vampire heart, Wicked game... and more more more!! Time went by so fast... they played for an hour but it felt like 10 minutes! I was so nervous and still couldn't realise I was really there it was over before I knew it. But I made some pics and videos to keep my memory fresh and yummy :p, so go take a look ;)..!!

So.... after HIM I saw Snow Patrol! And I was in front this time.. They were very good and they played my favorite 'Snow Patrol song' ;p.. Run! It was soo sweet.. like half of the people at the gig got special Snow Patrol lighters, and when he sang 'light up, light up' in the song Run, everybody lit up their lighter! Looked very sweet...

I saw a lot of bands but I'm not going to write about every one of them, cause I don't want to bore you too much :p so I'll skip the rest... except for the perfect ending of Lowlands: Muse..!! Too bad I wasn't in front, but somewhere near the end I found a gap so I could see the stage :p! And I was all alone... my other friend Mick lost his cellphone in a rollercoaster so I coudn't call him all day (he did was in front...)! But..!! Muse was perfect :)! Of course no one can compete with HIM, but Muse really was great! Amazing that three persons can make such a beautiful sound...

So Lowlands in general: while I was there it was oke... but as I said before, now I look back at it, it was so much fun :)!! Someone brang a small bbq and a guitar so there were a lot of cosy moments =).. I only slept 2 out of the 4 nights so when I came home yesterday I went straight to bed :p. And I met some great new people who I already miss now! Oh one day it rained so much that the floor was completely changed into mud.. my shoes don't even look like shoes anymore! But the mud was also fun :p! Ghehe some of my friends just started sliding and being crazy in the mud, and after a while a lot people were sliding around in the mud and actually made some kind of race or game out of it! Mudlands! It was very funny... :) *sigh*... I've got some good new momories... :)

I think I'll go again next year... hehe...
