Recorded by my dear friends Blueshacks and Miro from close to the stage at the barriers front row from different positions. Some recordings sound really fine, others a bit less. On this
festival it depended all about the stage time, the behaviour of the crowd and other influences. Most of the recordings have a few pics added as well.

This was the first Freak Valley Festival which I did not attend. Not because of any probable missing musical journey, but it was sold out very fast last October and when finally some
tix popped up for reasonable prices, the timeschedule for "holiday from work" was gone. Anyway, I knew there were at least three experienced tapers inside the valley.
All thanks straight to those warriors of taping in the valley of the freaky bones...
As told on the introduction by dear Volker...this was a premiere @ Freak Valley Festival. In their 6th year, first time an all female band. And, of course - a real good one.
Forget about your Runaways wet dreams, these ladies from Scandinavia will kick you a boot in the face if you're too much testoterone-driven. This is finest blues-soaked hardrock with
a tiny bit psychedelic edge added, but nethertheless a real fine live act you won't have to miss. I'm still wondering on who's female singer this voice reminds me of. Something like
Grace Slick on helium or Renate Knaup without screams. If you don't know both of these, don't mind, you're just too young...Enjoy and let your tin-beer crack open with a splash! SB.
