So i've been out of my home the whole past week, I went to Belgium to see my gf  xtasjax and spend some time with her, i missed her lots. Weather there was not so good, storm, rain, etc. but we went to see Shrek2, and it rules!!! I love it! "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"
Damm, Donkey and the Puss are the best characters ever!
On friday we left to Germany, to pick 2 friends at Dusseldorf airport and head to Pressure fest in Herne, we did it fairly good, only got lost 4 times or so.. not bad. Oh, and about their highways: german autobahns my ass! they are not so good.
The fest was good, lots of fun with the spanish Madrid crew we were there, and we also met some other spanish ppl and our friends at Born From Pain and of course, were friends with all the freaks who attended...
The bands i saw.. hmm... the ones that stood over the rest for me were Terror (amazing, and i always like when a band member kick a security guy), Hatebreed (biggest pit i ever saw, biggest circle pit), Heaven Shall Burn, Killswitch Engage (never saw them before, they surprised me good), Caliban (I love the, but this time they were not as good as previous times), Shai Hulud (can't wait to see them again on Sestao (Bilbao, basque country, north spain; free show!)
Bands I missed, well, bassically all the Sunday (Walls of Jericho (bul i'll see them in Madrid), Throwdown :(, Knuckledust (I always see Pierre and talk with that great guy but i never seee them live:(... )
Oh, and i missed Maroon also on Sat. :( thanks to my gf :) who locked the car with the keys inside, but i managed to open it with my hands and a wire... but 3 days later i still can't feel anything with some fingertips, is hard to bend a car's door with your hands when you can only grab it with your fingertips and you try to bend it enough just to let the wire get in...
But i don't blame her, I locked my car quite a few times too, luckily always in Madrid so i can go home and get the reserve keys.
On sunday we drove back to Brussels, my gf, GonzaloVS and me, and spend an hour sightseeing Brussels, eating fries and waffles before heading to the airport.
I don't have much pics (actually, i don't have any pic since we always forgot the digicam in the car) but i'll put some of my friends when i get them.
Let's start with this:
