The 24th Danube Island Festival

Last weekend was also the weekend of the Danube Island Festival. Free entrance to all stages (they call them islands) makes it always the most attended festival in Europe. Nearly 3 billion people over the weekend!

I did a short side trip to the 'heurigen & viennese song island' ;-) on Friday to have a bratwurst and a cup of beer and left the open air area on the verge of an irruption of a short-time thunderstorm.


On Sunday evening I picked up my roommate Max and we went to the 'FM4 Planet Music island'! We met Hannes and we viewed 'Binder & Krieglstein' and later on the 'stylish' band 'Russkaya'. The later one was really fun. They rant about their band name and told that 'rus' aren't only the russian people but also the russian soul and the meaning of 'ska' was something like move your foot. I'm sorry I forgot the meaning of 'ya'
;-)

On the way home we stopped at the 'Planet Rock & Fun island' where a band played some 'midninetees shouting metal' and later on I had a bratwurst (again) but Max preferred the cheese kransky!
