Hi,

I'm still alive, don't worry if you did (but maybe you haven't noticed my inactivity at all ) it's just examing-time. I hope so I'll finish this thursday (if I can do the last 2 exams at first time ) and then I'm planning go to the Danube shore and take some photos.

Untill then I tell you my last 'festival experience'. There was a 3 days long folklore festival in Miskolc, in the Castle of Diósgyőr. I went on Friday (6th) and Sunday (8th). Friday there was Ghymes and they were wonderful. They're professionals in music I can tell. When Szarka Tamás started to play 'Csengő Csángó' on the violine it made my flesh creep. They played many of my favourites so we called them back 2 times.
One of my friends arrived almost at the end of the concert, he was a little bit drunk. xD 'I wanted to bring you Cinzano and wine but I drank the whole' he said. x) Then, after the concert we sat down at a restaurant (or something like that) in the castle and drank some >bodzapálinka<. Well, maybe Peti shouldn't do that...he got a little bit sick. We arrived home definetly slower then we used to. (That's beacuse the road wasn't so straight as it should be for Peti. xD)

On Sunday I went to the Castle again. That friend didn't come who I talked to so I went in alone. Fortunately I met some other familiar. There was Balkan Fanatik that night. Most of the audience sat on the seats, only some of them were at the stage. However, the members of Balkan Fanatik didn't care and they enjoyed their own concert very much. Well, you can see theese times if somebody do this for music itself or for money.
After that I wanted to go but my friend said the next one will be good as well so I stayed for Csík zenekar too. I wasn't disappointed. First they played >real< folk music from XVIII-XIX centuries then - because that's their real profile - some 'folk music changed' Kispál & the Borz tracks.

I have to say the Castle was a really good place for all this festival, it had got a special atmosphere.
