It happened that an expedition with
four members, went to Tuzla last Thursday to the festival Tuzla Wave (or
I Should say one of the evenings of the festival, there were 3 nights).
Yet it payed of to go so far, if I may say far because our country isn`t
that big and what do we meen when we say far?
When you know that leaving
Mostar meens to be a little less nervous and when you arrive to Tuzla in two
days you can see only one police man. That meens to be a lot less nervous, a
lot less f
.d that is.
Bit by bit thanks to the drivers and often taken breaks for different
reasons, we arrived alive?, healthy? And happy!! On some breakes we even
drove-should I go forwards? And now backwards? And so it could last forever
(forever, forever) if we didn`t had to go forwards, but on the real road and
through the real Bosnian wood.
For the even more pleasure there had just been missing a Big bear.
After we came to the finish, we ate a muffin with cheese (if I can call THAT
for cheese).
The concerts were held at Atrium discoteque with small and everlasting
changes and fill ins of day schedule (people even start asking them selves
if there is going to be a concert at all, because some artists were late,
some went away, some weren`t there etc. etc.)
But all that is just the most important part of RnR.
When those who should be showing us the way canīt agree about anything why
should we.
Anyway, it was good.
Concert that we had a chance to see was opened by MASKA a group from Mostar
with two songs, they continued with their performance the day after, but
without us. That night the group HANDLE with CARE also from Mostar should
have played but they were moved to the next day ( pity, but there was
nothing we could do about it).
That meens that that night we have seen Adi Lukavac and Ornament (techno
pseudo psico delia a group from Sarajevo), Drugo Stanje (something- Konjic),
Peryside (a little bit slow hard music, but still good- Tuzla),Treca smjena
(?), Metafora (Bihac) and group CLOWN, SPITFEET that is. Should I mention
where they are coming from?
All and all the most counted and lost group of people were from Mostar.
Hard
corers from Mostar did their best on stage in their own way (as profesional
as they could, even if the organizator said that they have only 15 minutes
to play, and that was at 23:30 and most of the people were gone). But that
15 minutes were enough for people to get "crazy".
After that the party was held at the "student house" where all the
guests and musicians could sleep. We were as usuall "blind"
travelers.
And at the end there was some relaxing and a way back home.
