I also wanted to ask you is that Mikael Akerfeldt in one of your pics? I hope so, Opeth is amazing.

No Opeth. Did you mean pic nr 3? Thats Udos bass player Fitty Weinhold. I was meant to volunteer fri-sun but got sick with a summer cold but I had two wheelers that depended on me lol, dude and a friend, so I just had to go with them. I was only just infront of the stage with the photographers for a few minutes cos I was so sick, the rest of the time I was trying to find some shade or in the vip area, it was the hottest day of the year. We saw Sister Sin, Fatal Smile, Casablanca, Love might kill, Civil War, HEAT, corroded and U.D.O. And some more swedish bands that were not so great, and ten, that were also not that great. We had lunch with Los Bastardos Finlandeses wich was amusing since we just got back from finland, cool guys but yeah they all got bit too drunk . The only ppl who didnt meet the fans in the vip area was Udo himself and 2 members of HEAT. HEAT is from our suburb so I guess they were out visiting family or something So yeah I got a little starstruck but the cold and the heat got the best of me I pretty much sat behind a tent trying to find some shade when I wasnt running for drinks or pushing wheelchairs ha!

I think it's one of the guys in H.E.A.T. then. He looks a lot like Mikael (imo) in that pic.
"Los Bastardos Finlandeses", never heard of them but it sounds like I'd get along with them pretty well.

Love the photos. How did you get such great shots of the musicians? Look like you were on the stage with them.

Thank you all I was between the stage and the crowd with the press photographers for some shots since my hockey team volunteered I had full access. Only about 1500 ppl showed up and the area was sized for maybe double that. Since the beer Was served on one side and the stage was on another, there was not a big crowd by the stage. Shame. Its not easy to compete with stockholm pride festival that was the same weekend and pulled 600 000 ppl
