Rock for People Coverage

I can´t believe it´s been a whole year! The start of July can only mean one thing: Rock Fest time! Last year´s festival was pretty difficult to follow. Big names like Skunk Anansie, Muse and Suicidal Tendencies all graced the stages! But the organizers have done it again and come up with an equally great selection of bands for this year´s line-up. Jimmy Eat World, Kate Nash, The Streets, Kele, Skyline, Asian Dub Foundation and Primus to name but a few! The Rock fest is shaping up to be a great couple of days of high quality music! There´s always plenty to see and do, the festival park really is a super place to enjoy music and get into the festival spirit.

Last year was my first Rock for People and I totally enjoyed the whole thing. Bands like The Prodigy absolutely took the stage by storm, much to the pleasure of the adoring crowd. That being said, it´s also pleasing to see that the organizers have partnered established acts alongside lesser known names. It´s always good to check for the up-and-coming names! Last year was pretty much perfect in my opinion, good music, weather, food and non-musical activities from day one! The line up started with an introduction to the predominately Czech based bands, fresh homegrown music for the masses to enjoy.

The non-musical activities on offer were also pretty impressive: helicopter rides, soap slides, and sky dining were all on offer, providing a well-rounded experience for the Rock Fest-goers. Children were also considered with a supervised ‘Kids Corner´, perfect for the young rockers. A wide selection of food and drink is available at the festival, well-priced and at a high quality making sure that the fun-filled days aren´t without sustenance! My favorite was definitely the curry spot.
