Like the last five
years, me and my friends traveled to the England‘s ISD Memorial gig in
September. On Friday evening we arrived in the middle of England, the
place of the gig. After a few conversations with friends we
went to the concert tent. As in the previous years, it was a two days
event program, starting with a ballad gig. At the beginning of the
evening, the tent wasn’t filled with crowd so much, but however that changed over the
time,. At 9 o’clock the ballad evening began.
First on stage appeared Stevie, who played many of the famous Skrewdriver songs. Next came
the boys of Frakass from France, who sang their
hits in their native language. The next presentation was
followed by singer John of Scottish band Nemesis accompanied
by a guitarist. Personally I found the performance awesome, we
has a great voice and perform the songs with great passion.
The last guests of
the ballad
evening appeared on the stage at 1 o’clock at night . It
was Sleipnir from
Germany. Their
hits were brought
over very
ingenious and persuasive. There were,
for example, "Wunderbare
Jahre " and "Meine
Welt" . They played for about an hour so around 2 o’clock the ballad evening came to it’s end.

After a delicious English
breakfast on Saturday afternoon we went back to the gig venue for the
“full electric” gig night. First on stage appeared the boys of Gentleman Thugs. It was the third live
performance of the band. They played many
No Remorse covers, giving their best to warm up the
crown.

Then came March or Die, which unfortunately I have not seen because I ate a barbecue.
Slowly the tent started to fill with people and the
next band was Section 88, which hits like "Ain´t no black" presented to the audience.

The next band was the Scottish boys from Nemesis, which impressed me very much like the night before. A fabulous performance.
The next band were the boys from Legion
of St. George. They played their well-known pieces of their CD's
"On the footsteps of Heroes".

With "Kick the reds in" White Law started their performance. After an announcement by the singer a minute
of silence in the memory of Ian Stuart followed.
After White Law the guys from Blackout took the stage. Songs like "Blackout", "This is my country" and great cover from Skrewdriver songs were sung. As always, a great performance by the boys.

The next band for the night were the guests from Australia. The three guys from Ravenous played their hits. Unfortunately I can’t say much about it because I do not know the
songs. But the performance was very good for my point of view.

Ken and the rest
of the guys from Brutal Attack were next band of the schedule. There
played songs like "Tales of Glory", "Rock against communism",
“Always Near” and “Let
it burn”.
With great hope, I expected the next band. It was the guys from Deahts Head from Australia . The crew was the same as
at Ravenous. Only the singer changed the position. Jesse put on a convincing
performance. A great performance. Love it!
The last band of the evening were White Rebel Boys from Germany . I’ve ever before seen them live before, but they made a good performance.
To sum it up: about
700 people attended, great organization, we will be back next year.
Greetings to all my friends, the
guys from Blackout, Section 88 and Gentleman Thugs and of course to Silvy.
