Hammerfest III Day II

Saturday 19th March 2011, Pontins Holiday Camp in Prestatyn, North Wales
For the Friday line-up at Hammerfest, I had my list of bands I ‘Had To See’, but for the Saturday, there was nothing in particular I wanted to see.  I just wandered around following friends who had their own itinerary.  Sometimes having no expectations is the best thing.  I had no idea what pleasures I was going to experience.

Taiwanese band CthoniC
We wandered into the Stage Two Jagermeister arena to find a band I had never heard of before, Cthonic playing.  An instant Wow went through my head.  This band has to be on the main stage next year.  I didn’t know a single song they played, but it was all good. Very powerful stuff.  I’m sure the sexy female bassist was a welcome sight for the male audience.  I certainly enjoyed photographing her. 

CthoniC
Talking about sexy bass players, I have to thank my friend Paul for wanting to see Entombed, as this was the pinnacle of the weekend for me.  Wow wow wow wow wow.  Victor Brandt is HOT on stage.  The End.

Oh yes, I also saw a bit of Satyricon.  They don’t have Victor Brandt playing for them anymore – pity….
