Here are a few pics from Monday, the last day of the Wave Gotik Treffen. We decided to start off by eating lunch at Moritzbastei (the hotel breakfast was only until 10:30, I was too lazy to get up ;P), then checking out the medieval market there, and going to see the Heidnisches Dorf viking village. This naturally meant a lot of Met, or honey wine, as I think it's called in English!
Just me and my Wikinger Blut! It's honey wine with cherry flavor. |
Outfit of the Day |
Bolero - Queen of Darkness
Top - Queen of Darkness
Shorts - Cubus
Boots - New Rock (second hand)
Handbag - Addicted (second hand)
I had planned to stop by the hotel and change my clothes, but in the end there was no time. I felt very underdressed, but who cares, this was a great outfit to dance in! KMFDM and VNV Nation played at Agra in the evening, and we continued back to Moritzbastei to dance the night away (and eat). I'd say KMFDM was the best performance I saw this year, they had an awesome energy!
All in all it was a great festival, once again! I was feeling a bit tired on the first two nights, but I still got to see the bands I wanted and all the performances were great. I found the perfect skirt, and even when I didn't find a pair of New Rocks with wedge heels, I tried which size fits me so I can just order them when I find a style that I like :) The hotel was also great, internet access was included and they served a delicious breakfast! And by chance we got the same hotel and we're just about four rooms down from some friends who live a few blocks away in Tampere. Talk about a coincidence!
This one is from last year! Apparently then I was too lazy to photoshop a piece of spinach off of my teeth and thus didn't use the picture ;P |
Hmmmmm... Wikingerblut! Nom :)
ReplyDeleteI am planning to visit next years WGT and looking for a good hotel in advance ^^ Which hotel did you choose this year?
Maybe we will meet there next year and I can help you improving your German ;D
This was the "Best Western" right next to the railway station. The location was great, since we arrived by train the walk was just across one street, and at night all the strassenbahn stop at the station, so no wandering around the city at night ;)
DeleteAnd the airconditioning! It was a great thing to have! The rooms were quite small, but I don't think you really need that much space at the hotel, it's just for sleeping and keeping your stuff safe.
DeleteOooooh great - Best Westerns are always a good choice. When we are in Paris in 3 weeks, we will also check into a Best Western. ^^
DeleteI also need no big space but a room has to be clean and airconditioned ;)
Thanks for your tip :-*
I love that shrug! The tight arms and the fur! Sooo cute! I really want to go to WGT one day! It will cost me a lot to even get a plane to Germany! sigh. One day.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy I found the shrug! I actually bought a similar one last year from WGT and wore it to bits, since it was one of my favourite clothing items. WGT is a super fun festival, you should come!
DeleteI saw you on the Bastei, but it was rather early and you looked a bit tired, so I didn't want to disturb you and your boyfriend... You looked so hot in your clothes, I love the outfit!
ReplyDeleteWe must've just waited for food, I was a bit bummed that they didn't serve mushroom pasta this year. Luckily the spinach lasagna was delicious! Thanks for the compliments! :)
DeleteI think i Will speak and understand german perfekt when Im like 80 ore something too ;)
ReplyDeleteIt geting bether every year
I saw you just write that you stayed at best western was it good? Im thinking about it for next year. Couse i looked it up and the prise was realy good if you book it early.
This year i stayed at vivaldi and that was ok :)
I was on vnv nation too but a lots of peopel was...
VNV Nation really packed the Agra hall, it was a real challenge to just go out to the toilet and try to find your way back ;D
DeleteI liked the best Western, the internet was included (so it was easy for me to update the blog and brag on Facebook of then bands I've seen ;P) and it was clean and nice. The rooms were very small, but that's the only bad thing I can think of. I can totally recommend it!
I love your posts and fotos of WGT, I also was there in Leipzig last Weekend, it was so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great weekend! Even the weather was really nice, just tiny bit of rain :)
DeleteTanks :) i Will try too get rom there next year. The rom on My hotel was smal to but thats ok. Im not on WGT to be at the rom :)
ReplyDeleteI was in front of the stage on vnv so it was a bit hard to get out.. But Im short and manage it.
Front stage must have been totally crowded during VNV, even the back of the hall was packed!
DeleteI saw you and your boyfriend in this video (it was in the news of a German tv programm) in the beginning

Thanks for the link! Now I just wish they would have filmed us on a day when I had some eyeshadow on or had my hair done ;P That's from Monday (if I understood correctly they even say so in the video) when I just grabbed some clothes and went out to drink some met ;D
