OK, so the title is misleading. There is no 4th of July parade in Copenhagen. However, on my way out of my apartment this morning (I live by the Carlsberg Brewery) I met the above scene, as I have many times before, and it made me think of the parades going on back home in the USA.
If you take a tour of Carlsberg between 12:30 and 14:30 you can ride in one of the horse-drawn carriages at no additional charge. You may pass me on my bike if you do it during the next four weeks. These aren’t the Budweiser Clydesdales. I think Carlsberg has been using horses longer actually. These are Jutland horses, just as beautiful but not as big.
Nine years ago, we had a fun experience on American Independence Day at Tivoli. I guess that means this blog is about to have its 10-year anniversary.

Foo Fighters on the Orange Stage at 2017 Roskilde Festival
@orangefeeling #rf17 @foofighters
The rain stopped for the Foo Fighters’ set on Friday night, but the crowd of nearly 100,000 people couldn’t entirely avoid the elements as most were standing in mud.

Red Fang put on a really, really impressive performance last night at Roskilde Festival. I couldn’t have been more pleased. The Apollo Stage has been improved over the years, and I really like its look this year. The red velvet curtains and ceiling are awesome. The lighting is amazing.
My only complaint is that the sound quality varied widely depending on a person’s location. At the stage I couldn’t hear the vocals. On one side of the stage I could only hear bass and drums. So I spent most of the night in front of the mixing board where the sound was perfect.
