came through a competition my roommate 
colleague and I a free ticket to the NOKIA staff (a mobile service provider in Germany wanted as Mobilcom) Fest 2009 in Buenos Aires and we not miss the chance to see some great music acts play live. We therefore fix after work at the Club Ciudad de Bueno Aires s, a large outdoor event center in the heart of the city. Quickly bought a second card for 50 pesos (about 10 EUR!) And pure pleasure! Main act of the evening was none other than incidentally, the Pet Shop Boys! Now I'm not a fanatical fan of PSB, but if it's practically free! Heading a hundred flyers are pressed into the hand that after the festival still here and there . Invite I know her after-show parties ... but here there was liquid 
yer who invited directly to the "after party" without show ... Whether this is related to the PSB? I think so ... Once So, on the site, said first be guided between the 5 stages of . My colleagues are thirsty for a refreshing beer. And we found that is at concerts in Buenos Aires no alcohol sold. E rnüchterung, in the truest sense of the word began to spread. Good, then hold only Cola and hamburgers. A great festival food by the way! General are Argentines very relaxed at the festival, no Gerempel, not a bad Gegucke. A friendly city! Finally k 
amen then the PSB to the stage and Neil Tennant's masculine voice blared in the world with all new and annoying classics. The weather played along, all nice. Thousands stood around the stage and almost no one moved. I thought it was indeed a bit boring, but in practice my God, it was in vain ... My colleague was standing next to me and grinned, satisfied the to himself. How to not move for 2 hours, can is beyond me.

My colleague was standing next to me and grinned, satisfied the to himself. How to not move for 2 hours, can is beyond me. Only two Weeks later we were back on the way to a festival, this time to
m Pepsi Music Festival, again at the Club de Ciudad. An Argentine colleague was this time too. This multi-day festival, we decided on the first day, top act: The Prodigy! Anyone who knows me knows that I've been a good 15 years a fan of this combo. And now for the first time live - I had to see this! What goes on at a festival, I now knew already. So back into the city by taxi, and colleagues found from the battle! This time we came late from work and just in time for the headline act. We have positioned ourselves about 10 yards from the Prodigy-stage - the anticipation was great! Then they came on stage, the music began to slow and then ......... exploded the world around us! We stood in the middle of a giant bouncing and pushing crowd, no influence on the direction or speed! I was really scared ... at the Pet Shop Boys but everything was Sun from civilized? Yes, okay, here are The Prodigy ... different league. But with something like I just did not expect. Here's a small sample video to better understand: click ! With a bit of Pani 
k we pushed our way slowly back through the crowd to gain a little safety margin to the stage. Unbelievable. And then happened one of the most remarkable and unreal situations that I have ever experienced, I realized I suddenly had no more cell phone in my front pocket. I looked to my colleague and exclaimed: "My phone is gone ". He looks at me strangely, probably had not properly understood and called " My phone is gone! . I say again: " No, my phone is off ". He: "J a, also MINE!". If it were not so sad, it would have been very funny. The sad thing: He had even borrowed my mobile phone. So I had that night so in 2 minutes 2 phones less. So go on your way. The rest of the evening was spent jumping in the crowd, hands clutching tightly around keys and wallet. I do not know whether the phones were screened out during hopping, or whether someone has accessed. I afterwards heard that at festivals 
always a lot of phones are stolen. Ok, now I know. But not such a friendly city. Ultimately, it was nevertheless a great night, we had a lot of fun and we learned a lot, then have a few cocktails in a bar in Las Canitas and were late (or early) in bed. Now I have a cell phone, even two: one for the office and for a cheap festival. As long as one learns from his mistakes, all is well. My hearing has since returned, and The Prodigy I hear had preferred from the CD. I think I'm too old for something ...
