New free concert. I love that.. If only it wasn't right in the middle of exams and shit.. But as usual, music is more important... So we went. It's a concert series that a norwegian radio station has arranged. This was the last one. They have travelled to the major cities in Norway and held free concerts. Magnet and BigBang have been with them all the way, and in each town some local bands has performed too. Here a band called Sofian opened. Never heard of them, and we came just as they were finishing up.. Next on the scene was a band called Animal Alpha. Not to familiar with them either. They played.. frantic rock, I think they called it... They were very good, especially the lead singer was terrific. But it's maybe a bit to loud for my ears.. But anyone who likes heavy, loud rock should definitely check them out. Think they said they were releasing their first album pretty soon.

Next on the stage was Magnet, the guy I came out to see. I thought it was kinda funny that when they did the whole soundtest thing - Turboneger's City of Satan played very loudly from the sound system. And in between the heavy guitar riffs and satan lyrics, you could hear Even sing some lines from some of his songs.. Played with a full band this time, all dressed in black and white striped shirts.. Some of the songs they played: Lay lady lay, Hold on, the Pacemaker, On your side and Deadlock. I love this guys songs. And wouldn't you know - when he played the clouds parted and let the sun shine on us for a few minutes

Big Bang ended the whole show. I really like some of their songs, but am not a huge fan. But they really are a great live band. Played Wild Bird which is one of my favourites. Reminds me of my time in Bali. Can't remember all the songs they played, but they did Saturn Freeway, Fly like a butterfly and of course ended with a great version of Girl in Oslo.

So all in all, pretty good day. Next time it needs to be warm and sunny though.. And by then I should have learnt how to get the camera to focus on the people on the stage instead of the heads of the people in front of me... Now, time to panic. Study!!!!
