Wow, first blog I wrote in august!
Ramadan is almost over, one more day of fasting left and then finally Eid! It went really well alhamdulillah, the best thing with the end of Ramadan is that I will be able to have breakfast again in the morning! It will feel absolutely amazing to be able to eat my cornflakes or cereals and drink my lovely cup of coffee! Coffee is absolutely what I miss the most, the kick that gives me in the morning to start the day!
It will be perfect now that I started to work again.
Anyway last night we went to Sunset Park festival and I must say I had a great time. Met lots of friends, some people that I didnt see for a long time and saw some cool shows...dancing, music, fashion show, art gallery, fire show...it was just great! The guys of the organization did a fantastic job...I enjoyed last year Sunset Park too, but for some reason I liked this year edition even more.
The only weird thing is that the legendary band Das Ich, which was supposed to play at the festival never showed up, without a notice, which was a disappointment. They left Germany the day before in the morning and then they disappeared!
The organizers didn't manage to get in touch with them anymore, they contacted the police, the band's record label and the german embassy to find out any news about the band and no one seems to know anything.
This is really strange...a professional band like Das Ich, wouldn't cancel a gig at a festival at the last second without even contacting the organizers...at this point everyone is worried that something may have happenned to the band on their way to Sweden...maybe they got arrested or involved in a accident? I am really curious myself to know what happenned.
I would have totally loved to see them live.
Apart from this, what counts is that I saw Zonaria and let me tell you, they were totally amazing in every way! I really loved the show so much, their presence on stage was excellent and the music just blew me away. I think I got hypnotized during the concert! For real...
I wish they would play more often around here...
I wanted to film the show so much but my camera stopped working...Amr filmed something with his mobile but I don't think it would be very good quality...oh well I guess someone will put some good footage on youtube before we know it. Anyway here is a picture from the show
ZONARIA
That is Emil and Simon. We ended up sleeping at Simon's place, who actually has a truly lovely apartment, really well decorated! Great guy!
We even got his guitar pick, found it after the show. One more for our pick collection!
Well I had a blast, I am so happy to have had a great night after so much negativity in the last two months. I deserved some happiness!
Next show will be on wednesday, Plector and Moloken! I can't wait to see Plector because I never seen them live before and of course I cannot wait to see Moloken again! I will probably write a blog after the show with some pictures inshAllah.
