Before the sun on a Sunday

Here comes the sun

Today’s photo was taken one morning on my way home from Copenhell this summer. It wasn’t just any morning; it was summer solstice. Copenhagen gets almost 11 hours of additional sun on summer solstice compared to winter solstice.

Flashback Friday

@COPENHELL #copenhell @Slayer

I was hoping to see Slayer one last time (although I saw them in the 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s) after they announced their retirement (“Final World Tour”) earlier this year. However, with Slayer shows happening in Denmark and Sweden in December I doubt they will show up at the festivals I will be at next summer. So it looks like today’s photo (from 2017 Copenhell) will be from the last time I ever saw Slayer live.

Den grimme ælling

Copenhagen swan -- perhaps the descendant of the inspiration of Hans Christian Andersen's "The Ugly Duckling"?

Throwback Thursday

SUMAC @ Roskilde Festival (Pavilion stage)

@SUMACband @SigeRecords @bbcbubblegutz #rf16 @orangefeeling @sargenthouse @SargentHouseEU

Today’s photo of SUMAC at the 2016 Roskilde Festival is from more than a couple years ago. The guy on the left, Brian Cook, is best known for his work in Russian Circles, a band I was fortunate enough to see for the first time last night in Portland at the Crystal Ballroom (photos coming).

Arriving home from the Roskilde Festival a bit after 4 a.m., I had to snap this pic from my bedroom window before heading to bed.

Metal Monday

Pagan Altar @ Metal Magic

Pagan Altar is one of those bands that I would probably never have discovered had they not been on the bill of a festival I was going to attend. I started listening to them only half a year ago when Metal Magic announced their appearance at Metal Magic XI. Their performance solidified my love of the band. Even though Pagan Altar played on Friday night, they hung around. I stood next to them during Goblin’s set on Saturday night.
