Artmania, 26-27.07.19, Large Square Sibiu

Posted on: July 30, 2019 at 9:29 pm

Another Artmania has ended. I’ve said it before, I simply can’t get enough of this festival and I have a lot of respect for the way the organisers handle it year after year. Yes, there were bigger lines than usual this time. Yes, at some point it took 30 minutes …

Godsmack, Arenele Romane, 01.04.2019

Posted on: April 29, 2019 at 11:21 am

What a crazy night! We’ve been dying to see this guys for ages, and it seemed like the stars had aligned against us (or them?). First in 2012, the band cancelled the tour that included Romania because Sully got sick. Then in 2015, we had to leave the show early, right …

Desteptarea primaverii, Teatrul Mic, 30.10.2018

Posted on: November 4, 2018 at 10:40 am

I was a bit on the fence about doing this review, because it relates to a theatre play and not an actual concert. But after giving it further thought, I realised that I mostly treated it like a Firma concert and it was a wonderful experience that had a deep …

Haggard, Club Quantic, 26.10.2018

Posted on: October 29, 2018 at 10:39 am

I don’t even remember how many times I’ve seen this amazing band live, I’ve lost count. But every single time, no exception, it was a magical night and what I do remember is the feeling of absolute happiness at witnessing something so awesome. But first, a few words about the …

Nightwish, Romexpo, 17.08.2018

Posted on: August 18, 2018 at 10:36 am

So freaking tired! Everything hurts, which by now you must know is the trademark of a great live show for me. I think I was even bouncier than usual, and I already am crazily bouncy to begin with. I’ve been waiting for this for months now, fretting with anticipation, avoiding …

Artmania, 27-28.07.2018, Large Square, Sibiu

Posted on: July 31, 2018 at 10:32 am

Even though I’ve been to almost half of its editions, Artmania continues to amaze me. After hitting a rough spot because of the Town Hall’s decision to ban paid concerts in the Large Square (which threatened to put the festival to death, since Artmania is synonim with Sibiu and there was no …

Judas Priest, Romexpo, 22.07.18

Posted on: July 24, 2018 at 10:26 am

It’s been a while since I’ve been to a large stadium-like concert (or in our case, parking lot concert, because apparently that’s the only place where we can host shows over 2000 people) and I now remember why I prefer smaller venues. There’s an undeniable energy and adrenaline that comes …

Stone Sour, Arenele Romane, 26.06.18

Posted on: June 29, 2018 at 10:25 am

Finally I get a chance to sit down and write about the awesomeness of Stone Sour + Nothing More! It was such a crazy experience that even now, three days later, I am still feeling it in my bones and in my throat. And it was worth every single freaking …

Foreigner, Sala Palatului, 07.05.2018

Posted on: May 8, 2018 at 10:23 am

The evening started surprisingly with Iris, and I say surprisingly both because there was no mention of them being the opening act and because it took me a while to recognise them. And yes, I am not blind to the irony of not recognising one of the few Romanian rock …
