After a week full of investigating Utrecht, meeting new fantastic people, unhealthy food, party's, lack of sleep, (rock)music and mudd, I'm finally back to blog about it for you!
Well, of course first the UIT, the one that was still tricky if I would go to it anyway. Well, I did! But I had the most amazing luck, really. Because I was rejected the minute I talked by the staff people. They just couldn't do it, whatever I would say. So I guess you understand I was pretty sad. I saw all those people going into the tent and I felt pretty lonely. Luckily, there were some girls who looked friendly standing close to me, and I started talking to them. At some point, I told them my unfortunate fate. One of the girls turns to me and says that she has one extra blue securitybracelet! She got it by accident. I'm so grateful to her, really, and I wish I knew her name or had her adress.
The UIT itself was just amazing. I met some really nice people who I definately want to see again when we are really starting to study. Our mentors were really nice too and showed us every possible studentscorporation. I myself joined UMTC, a really little one who had just a great atmosphere. It felt just right for me and the people were very nice there. And they have a play every year, wich I plan to join in! The nights were very good too, although I prefer a cafe over a club.
Well, and then it was time for Lowlands. I just have to say that it was really amazing. I saw some great bands and discovered a lot of new ones I really love. Everyday I had one favourit concert. Friday it was OK GO, a very upbeat indierockbeat. They performed really well and really interacted with the audience (the singer song one song in the middle of the audience, acoustic on his guitar.
Saturday was my absolute favorite because that day Snow Patrol played. And we stood very close to the front, so I could see them very well. I'm a big fan of Snow Patrol and yes, the played very very very good! Can't wait to see them again!
Sunday Massive Attack was definately my favorite, because the lightshow was just amazing. There music is good but with all the statements, news headlines, planets and numbers flashing by it was hallucinating. A lot of people were in a trance, wich was pretty weird to see. The audience went crazy for 5 minutes after they stopped so I think that proofs this concert was amazing.
Other bands I really liked were Mumford and Sons, Two Door Cinema Club (Got a free ticket for there concert in Tivoli), The XX, I Am Kloot, The Gaslight of Anthem, Blood Red Shoes, The National, Pendulum and Laura marling.
And the other things I saw were Blink 182, Air, Moss, Pendulum, Queens of the Stone Age, The Ting Tings, Anouk. A lot of bands and a lot of fun!
Well, this was my long blogpost. Next time I'll blog about fashionstuff again, I promise! See you soon! xoxo Sabine
