This years Väsby Rock Festival got cut short due to me having to catch the Quireboys playing in Stockholm. Still some good bands and good music despite missing W.A.S.P. and Michael Schenker.
Astral Doors were very nice to see yet again and they almost played all the songs I wanted to hear. They deserve to be bigger than they are, such good music.
Väsby Rock Allstars started out quite bad and I thought it was going to be very bad. It got better than Johnny Lima did two good covers and it got excellent when Thomas Vickström performed three songs. So fun to hear his old song Free Like An Eagle (Talk of the town) from my youth. He is such a good singer. Cherie Currie of the Runaways did three good songs also before it was time for Tony Martin to do three Black Sabbat songs from his tenure with the band. The Shining sounded great but he got all of Väsby rocking with the Headless Cross.
The backing band were of shifting quality but Chris Laney and Nalle Påhlsson were both excellent.
Friday evening finished with Danger Danger which were fun to see after eleven years but I had to leave early so I could get home.
Saturday were cut short due to the Quireboys show the same evening but one band has to be mentioned and that were Work of Art. A bit similar to Toto and quite energetic on stage. Good show.
