A large festival is being planned for the future. In order for it to happen, we need a few groups who are already well known as well as those not so well known in order to complete our billing. One or two have already been approached and we would also like to bring some new bands to the attention of our public.

This festival will take place in a well-known venue south of Brussels during July 2005 over a three day period -friday, saturday and sunday evening.

For all proposals or further details, please contact us by email, not via the (efest) forum at
[email protected]

or

www.octopusrockfestival.com (in the tremplin rock forum)

Thanks in advance and good luck to you.

The Octopus team.

well, if you'd like to move to Falun in August, I'll be there for you!

Falun is close to Borlänge, too. That city is well-known for having lots of local musicians.

For an established band try the English band IQ.They like playing on the continent and are currently touring Germany,Holland and Belgium.

For a new band I would highly recommend Sphere 3 .They have one album out so far and play a heavy brand of instrumental prog.I've seen them live and they were excellent.They would be ideal as an openng band.
