Oathbreaker’s Lennart Bossu @ 2017 Roskilde Festival
@churchofra @the_oathbreaker @orangefeeling #rf17
I’m really hoping that European music festivals happen this summer. More specific to this photo, I’d love it if Amenra (for whom Lennart Bossu plays guitar) performs at the 2021 Roskilde Festival. They were scheduled for 2020 but no word yet on 2021.
Happy birthday, Dave Grohl!

Clutch @ 2018 Roskilde Festival
#rf18 @orangefeeling #clutch #roskildefestival @clutchofficial
I almost saw Clutch again in 2019 at Copenhell. However, their set overlapped with Slaegt, and it’s difficult to be in two places at once.
In 2020 I was set to see Clutch at MetalDays, but, of course, that was canceled. That brought my near misses with Clutch up to four (2008 Roskilde Festival, 2008 Metaltown, 2019 Copenhell, and 2020 MetalDays).
Coincidentally, on Saturday I had all of the songs on my phone (over 3,000) on shuffle and the one that just so happened to come on right after Biden was announced as the new President of the USA was this one, which brought a smile to my face:
I’m gonna be President
Of the United States
First Tuesday in November
Mark it down, and save the date
Live music in the White House
Strictly B.Y.O.B
…
First thing that I’m gonna do is disclose all those U.F.O.S
Put Jimi Hendrix on the 20 dollar bill
And Bill Hicks on a five note
Hot damn! The democratic process
What a time to be alive
Oh, I’m ready to give the people what they want
And what they want is straight talk and no jive!
We have exit polls coming in
Rhode Island and American Samoa
We have more results coming in
From Puerto Rico and both Dakotas
Breaking news
Happening right now
I believe we’re ready to call it
Do you want us to call it?
(Yeah) I believe
We have a winner
