Finale Malmöfestivalen 2009

Today was the finale day of Malmöfestivalen, it's been a fun week and I think this year is one of the best. I've eaten different food, bought candy and listen to concerts at Stor Torget. And today on the last day it was a "Light Inferno" and at the same time a Orchestra played and had different artist sing covers. It was okay but I miss the traditional "Firework show", but they said it was too expensive and bad for the environment. In the newspaper it said it would start 00:30 but I later found out it was 23:00, but we went their a few hours before so we had luck. So we went to the square so we would get a good spot and suddenly the Orchestra started playing, so I think we saw the whole thing, but I think many people thought that it's was just the warm up but sadly no and the light show was a disappointment. A huge anticlimax!! :(

But still it's one of the best years so far. It's the 25 anniversary of Malmöfestivalen this year, so it's probably why it had so many great artists. See you next year!

Good:
The food (Langos, Quarter Ribs, Tacos, Pancake with chocolate, Spanish waffles, Polkagrisar, Burnt Almonds). The Concerts (RixFM Festivalen, NRJ In The Park, Finale). The light tower on Stor Torget (Cool colors), The happy people (You feel happy when you see all the children laughing and smiling), That something happens in Malmö at least ones a year.

Bad:
"Light Inferno" as a finale (Not a inferno at all, the person who said that exaggerated alot, it was just like it was everyday, pretty cool light effects), People who doesn't show respect and push you.

Overall:
One of the best Malmöfestivalen so far..."

Malmö Festivalen 09 (NRJ In the Park 19/8)

Today I was at the Malmö Festivalen and watched the "NRJ In the Park" concert. For the first time ever I was in the front of the crowd, but I prefer to be more in the back. You can hear the music much better if you stand further away because the bass was so loud in the front that you couldn't here them sing.
My first time at a concert was in Stockholm, Sweden 25/5 2007 when I watched Linkin Park preform in the "Globen". I had a seat place and I prefer to sit down at a concert, it's too much pushing when you stand in the crowd. And I met Linkin Park before the show at the Meet and Greet and I shook Rob and Chester's hand and got all the band members autographs, that was a fun day that I'll never forget.

Now back to the "Malmö Festivalen". It was fun today Darin and Arash and other artists preformed at the "NRJ In the Park" event and it was cool to see and hear, the bad thing was it was too crowdy and that you couldn't hear the artists voices, but overall it was pretty good. After that we looked for a place to eat, it's so much food to choose from but I decided for "Fish N Chips" and after that I ate a pancake with warm light chocolate, it was both good! It was a fun day!
