However, starting with.. Menuo Juodaragis!
The purpose of these lines is to take some memories out of my head and to put somewhere where anyone could see them. Getting them naked? However, Menuo Juodaragis is annual festival which takes place in Lithuania and is dedicated to our history, to ancient religion and crafts. Music is one of the main things as well - folk, metal, pagan and anything what is not commercial (mainly). Lectures... Movies.. Nature.. Put all this in one and you get one of the best festival in Lithuania!
As I came to the place (wonderful island in north east of Lithuania) with a great company and some more great friends were already waiting for us, I must admit that I simply couldn't see all performances. So, friday night - Theodor Bastard rocked the house. Listen to them here! Vilkduja was something what was recommended for me. Heared them for the first time, but hey! hopefully not the last one :)
Saturday morning... Feel so sleepy, but.. The lake helped on that. All day long walking around the island and checking where is it possible to hide :))) Evening - my tribute to "must to see" list: Auli - crazy latvian guys; Atalyja - good as always; obtest - best pagan metal band in Lithuania, Andrius Mamontovas - legend and god of lithuanian music, say whatever you want, but this guy is still the best! And thanks for old Foje songs!; Spiritual Front - that was the most wonderful end a day for me.
I already want to go there next year again!
P.S. Some "official" photos may be found here!
