Woefully inadequate summary of sziget festival, Budapest, Aug 9-15, 2006

Wednesday

Ahh, yes, the "Coca Cola Fun Factory" or whatever it called itself. I seriously felt like a corporate whore spinning there on wednesday night.



The dj stand was rather sketchily built as well. It was literally swaying in the breeze, and the ladder was, uh, not inspiring confidence.



hank, who was preceding me, also had a bit of the worry going on.



One nice aspect, however, was the vantage point. It made you want to give some kind of Eva Peron type speech to the masses.




It also worked as a nice viewing spot for the Franz Ferds interviews going on beneath.



Nick and Paul were high-as-kites. Smile smile, wink wink, nudge.



Krissi and her sis get some Alex lovin'.



Meanwhile i was supposed to play some music. However it got delayed by some two hours due to sound issues. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that the equipment provider used the same logo style as SONY except moved the letters around and called themselves NOYS. Tricky, fellas.



Some early evening chillin with Kinga, Adi, and Roli



Zsofi, Krissi, and Sis



There was a small break in the action, when suddenly Juli and Kinga, were let's say, energized! Woohoo!



Kinga and our new american friends in town for a few weeks, Jodi and Farah.



A bit later and the full moon was taking full effect on everyone i'm sure, indeed.



While hanging with mate and adrian, they told me the person passed out on the ground was the girl mate had taken back the night before. I took a few pics just for yuks.



Yuk yuk.



Although just this moment looking at the picture... um... Mate, are you sure that was a girl?



So let the me + whoever parade begin. Krissi

Friday



I was there thursday but didn't do too much so we skip to friday. Viktor and Roli waiting for Moog to begin.



Moog hits it! And really, they did this time around. You go boys.



Things went a bit fast forward after the evening's concerts. Most of the late night we spent at the Blikk bar Tesco Disco party. David aka instabil, was in maniacal form.



Norbi, Roli, Tonyo, + ladyfriend




Roli and Andi rocking the eff out.



Roli's manfriend attempting to pick him up. Note to roli's manfriend: it's difficult.

Sunday



Sunday was another 'slow' day but i did stay long enough to find da Roli und da Dorka makin' friendly.



Awwww.

Monday



Monday was my last night on the island and it was barrel-of-monkeys fun. Some plywood abstraction.

Spending too much time in a unbelievably stinky ToiToi had me plotting evil things...



Zsuzsi and i taking in the placebo show...



Although we had a little trouble figuring out when it ended. ;)



Zsuzsi. Colors. Moon.



Old School Abba videos!



And finally, Balint, just hangin around.

So another sziget comes and goes...
