Concerts

I haven’t been to a concert in so long, I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms! I don’t know what was going on lately, but it seemed that every time we had tickets to a band we were really excited about, something would happen at the last moment to prevent …

I still have the chant of „GO-JI-RA GO-JI-RA” ringing in my ears. It was such a fun night, even though Gojira is not a particularly fun band (they’re more on the serious spectre). But more about that a bit later. We didn’t arrive in time for Xaon, which is always a …

The third edition of Doom over Bucharest got us out of the house on a dark Saturday night and took us to our favourite concert location, Quantic pub. It was the same as always, space, air, beer, relaxed people, the female singer of Clouds sitting on our table during the …
