Hi, Just a short note on this new (first year out) festival Avant Gotlandica. I'm playing two nights but am thinking about hanging out there for the rest of the week because it seems to be such a great little festival and also because I've never been to the island of Gotland. It was the commercial center for the entire baltic region (from 900 AD and for some four five hundred years... I think) until Lübeck took over that function in 1525. Today many old buildings are still intact, so the place seems to have some "time machine qualities". Anyway, here's from a festival pre info I found: > Avant Gotlandica, Galleri Tapeten, Visby, > > "A festival in honour of the burning art. The art that posesses a > human being and makes her walk through fire and water to create > something that can neither be explained nor denied". Preliminary > line-up: The Noise Hippies (US) Bird by Snow (US) Origami > Traumatika (NO/SE) Per Boysen (SE) Lo Fi Lazer (NO/SE) > Idiomdrottning (SE) Melody + Daniel Karlsson (SE) Enavomi (NO) > Kymatica (SE) Daniel 3D (SE) Krian (SE) Solblomma (SE) The venue (Old Fire Brigade Station).
