some beer and dinner before it all started.

Lining up...
Early stages, but people is already walking in line. Shot from the
market place betwen camp C and E. Over the bridge - and far away - is
the festival area.

It's all over
What can I say, roaming edge prices overseas sux big time. Live
blogging is best in your own country, or somewhere with free internet
connection - like in the hotel window in Copenhagen, 5 floors above a
free wireless hotspot :)
Left Roskilde by train last night. Fantastic feeling getting a proper
shower and a proper bed.
One more night at the hotel, and straight home for little rest and
back out on the road. Norwegian Rock Festival in Kvinesdal next ;)

My brother is having a somewhat bad next day. That's what happens when
you sleep in a toilet all night ;)

Queing..
03:15 started queing. 2,5 hours later we were in. All the inner gares
were kicked down, so we arrived at the camp site well before 08:00 -
the official opening time.

George's...
Found a new one in Roskilde. No dogs allowed inside, but smoke your
hearts out ;) Basically filled with old sailors. I'll fit right in :)

Does this work???
Just checking if blogspot supports video... If so, enjoy some Hare
Krishna everyone... ;)

Change of scenery.
After a wee walk and some pressure relief, we ended up at The Scottish
Pub. Brown as few, but some lovely chesterfield furniture... Still
some time to go before we have to be at Roskilde. Party on
Copenhagen... Btw: Am I right thinking Egil is "getting it on"?? ;)

At the pub...
Enjoying a beer (and 5-6 vodkas) at The Dubliners in Copenhagen.
Lorissa, the waitress, is dead cute and outside some break dancers and
the Hare Krishna is fighting for everyones attention... And don't get
me started on those damn beer flies everywhere... Time to move on...
Just waiting for Egil to finish his beer... He's soooo slow, drinking
beer and pissing every now and again ;-)

The Car.
Behold, the new hired car has arrived. Looks like it has survived
(barely) a few festivals earlier. Egil gives it a once over. More than
good enough ;)

Arriving Copenhagen.
Sat outside the airport waiting for our "drivers" to pick up the car.
Early morning still and about time to open the Turkish Pepper bottle.
On our way to do some major shopping. Need something to live in the
next 11 days...

Not really Roskilde related.
But since Vlad was so eager to pose in my new Roskilde gear, I had to
put it on the blog. Somehow he was complaining about the fact that his
head was to tiny compared to his arms. Oh, well...

Time to get ready... Soon.
Just about time to get ready for Roskilde 2008. Was supposed to get a haircut and buy some shorts an shirts today, but the weather is too good too do anything but relaxing in the sun. I guess it can be done somewhere in Denmark anyway. About 14 hours until take off now. Some washing and some packing, and off we go. Gonna be great ;-) See you on the other side...
