Árstíðir at Warsaw Chmury 15th December 2019

Brilliant way of ending the concert year in Warsaw, seeing Árstíðir at the Chmury (next to the Hydrozagadka) last Sunday.

Have seen Árstíðir playing on bills with Pain of Salvation and Solstafir, so at the Chmury, it was the first time I've seen them do a full set, and it was fantastic.
 

Loved the balance of the band's Christmas show with Icelandic hymns/Christmas songs mixed in with the bands older and recent material.

Loved every tune of the set, especially 'Ages' and 'While This Way'.

Hope the band return to Warsaw next Christmas playing the Hydrozagadka rather than the Chmury (too small).

Feel blessed to have seen Árstíðir again.

A Nice Cold Beer Outside

Went down to the Hydrozagadka (in Warsaw) for a concert recently, and the place was choc-a-bloc for the support band, so I had nice cold beer outside.

Elder Island at Warsaw Hydrozagadka 3rd December 2019

On a great little run of seeing genre-defying bands at the moment: Lamb; Ghostly Kisses; The Paper Kites etc., and on Tuesday night, it was the turn of Elder Island:

Wasn't in the mood for going out Tuesday night truth be known, but I'm so glad I made the effort as the Elder Island gig was fantastic, absolutely loved it:

Have only come across Elder Island recently, but it was great listening to tunes like 'Don't Lose' and 'Kape Fear' live, with 'JPP' being mystical and upbeat, the tune of the night.
