Could anyone tell me how to get there from Bremen? I saw a map and it seemed to be somewhere close to Hannover, but I'm not sure. I think I want to go, so it would be nice to know exactly how (is there a bus or anything from Hannover to Bunde?)...

A little bit Heimatkunde: Bünde has nearly 45.000 inhabitants and is between Hannover, Bielefeld and Osnabrück.

If there is no chance to go by car the best way is by train - it will take not more than 2 hours from Bremen with an IC and the Stadtgarten is not far away from the railway station.

Hope to see u ...

Thanks. I only came to Germany a few weeks ago, so I'm a little lost in space. A regional bahn would be better than an IC, cause my student travel ticket isn't valid for IC travelling, but anyway I know where it is now, so it should be easy to get there. I can't wait to see TFK, Pendragon and Riverside. Smile

I'll be there! I already have my tickets for both days. Only 132 km from my home so no problem. Maybe we could meet!

The first day has ended ...
Unfortunately ABARAX and RIVERSIDE suffered from bad sound quality.

The FLOWER KINGS closed the evening with an excellent performance ...

I hate this. I was supposed to be there, but I've been chained to the bed with fever and a sore throat for two days. Great time to catch a cold... At least I hadn't bought tickets, so I only lose some wonderful performances... Unhappy
Post comments, please.

Completely successfull 2nd part of PROCKFEST ...

FLAMBOROUGH HEAD started the day - neoprog with some folk elements and excellent vocals.
THE WATCH followed with very complex songs - a reminiscence to the early GENESIS.
Finally PENDRAGON rrrrrrrocked the house supported by some special guests (former members of the band).

PROCKFEST was a very satisfying event and I'm sure it will continued next year.
