Before the fest I thought I could write a report every day for three days to recount the Hare I Stay Festival in almost real time. But as I thought there was no time and modo.Ora, ten days away, it seems to me just drop a line - with the proviso that it is a view from "within" - beautiful on an issue that reveals how the festival is growing well and that looks edition next year with renewed optimism. Here.
I Stay at Her Stuff happens. It's Sunday night, now the festival is running with the (few) remaining energy left to those who have experienced this issue since the early afternoon of Friday, alternating days at the beach and concerts throughout the weekend. Raw Rave Groove I have just finished flashing the stage with a truly lethal live, proving - if proof were still needed - that this is a mature band despite the young age, ready to leap the final and a European tour to hold a high level.
After a few minutes apart from a DJ set that was not in the program: the Oneida jumped on the mixing desk of the white stage and started to select some 'music from their iPod. Typically, the third day you do not program the DJ set because people come last Sunday night's live a little, 'we say, "boiled". But there still want to be there, to refer more possibileil when once again we must leave behind the Here I Stay, and wait a year for the new edition.
The Oneida funk stuff to start with then continue with hip hop and nineties nell'electro forays. Only the day before the New York band had known what it is: a live in high volumes with a devastating sound that alternates repetitive kraut, psychedelic, hard rock and pure noise, literally shakes the ears of those who stood in front of the stage (the whistle to my left ear was gone after two days). A monstrous live - there is no other adjective to describe it - which has amply repaid the efforts to have them brought from New York to play in a small Sardinian festival on the outskirts of a village in the Middle Campidano.
And there they were the Oneida, Sunday night around half past two to three, apparently Oneida these same the day before, waving their arms and improvised ballets choreographed with the public and the band left, revealing a lightness and an ability to get involved in that fund, having heard live on the day before, you would not have expected. View drummer Kid Millions, who did things on Saturday alien on his arms and carried a live music over an hour of almost seamlessly, taking the stage and rock out and have fun without mediation and compromise. Some did not appreciate, the majority of respondents understood and interpreted well the spirit in which it was made the set. And it went on until late, until people - tired - did not begin to withdraw in tents, to return home or b & b. And so the curtain fell also on the issue of the 2010 festival.
all'His Stuff happens. In a festival where there are no barriers between the band, staff and public, where everyone participates together at the same party where the atmosphere that reigns here is pure intimacy and friendship - may sound trivial or even silly or rhetorical, but it's true, and it is an aspect of the festival for which I Stay Here really is a difference .
*****
One of the satisfactions I Stay Festival at Her best is when you talk to some of the bands involved, one of those who come for the first time, and express their happiness (sincere , not of fact) for being invited. In a friendly festival hosted by a beautiful location close to the sea of \u200b\u200bunparalleled Costa Verde. They are small things that comfort in the annual effort to move forward with this experience.
it is not easy to pull on a festival like this. The concept of "do-it-yourself" in Italy was a bit 'disgraced, but the core remains the same: to do things on its own merits, without compromising on artistic choices (never a hustler, maybe to get some more input that would give greater financial security), with a group of eight guys who can divide the tasks and that arrived at the threshold of the festival, you plant the Sleepwalkers Guspini several days before the start, working to set up everything and prepare for Friday. It is a festival pulled up risking the hard way, betting on their work. Every year we try to make it grow a little 'more, in the hope that sooner or later will get more financial security with the ability to raise even more the level of the line-up.

A betting this year was included in the line-up a project completely alien to the context "rock" and "pop" and "folk" and "electronic" typical dell'His , a project originally Seneghe tenor, on contractual seneghesu . Their performance has been included on Sundays, after the live of Cagliari Everybody Tesla - live looping with recreational use of headings, where a catchy pop style is coupled with a shot, sometimes open and sometimes experimental dancefloor - and that of His Bolognese Clancyness - Cheh brought a perfect dream pop dreamy, reverberated in the timetable in which it was placed, when the sun was going down permanently - and drew the entire audience of the festival under the stage, so intrigued by the unusual presence. It was nice to see how the audience responded with warm enthusiasm and a deep esteem that were revealed by the respectful silence with which the show was heard. Many have moved. It might seem like a gamble and instead was beautiful.
**** One of the most curious live with that expected at the festival was that of Buzz Aldrin . The band had Bolognese listened to in streaming the tracks of the first EP, released on the casket Secret Furry Hole and inside there I found much of what ultimately I like it: a dark and haunting sound that revises an original post-punk British and American influences (Wire , Suicide), suggestions shoegaze, garage and even a cover shot of the Silver Apples. Live all'His were huge. The sound on stage takes a thick - almost in the sense of matter - which has no disk, and a rock that impact is greatly enhanced compared to that of the tape recordings. Percussive, powerful, even violent, personal opinion - and without wanting to do wrong to the other bands that played - one of the best live all'His.
Without being able to reflect on all different sequences also point - besides the already mentioned - the beautiful concert Trees of Mint, which the festival has brought the new live entirely based on instrumental compositions for guitar and loops, with a few agreements are repeated for the duration of songs and sounds that create a contiguous series of small but significant changes in the structure of the piece. All accompanied by visual projection for the entire course of the concert. All very nice seriously: do not miss the item and does not feel even the lack of taste that "pop" which had also led to some very incisive pieces (Today Polaroid). There is a sense balance and measure, a taste and a strong sensitivity in the new Live Trees of Mint that reveal an artist deeply developed.
nonsense was presented on stage with a brand new band. A band that has accentuated the rock side of his music with him - without a guitar - free to move on stage and pull off the vocal cords a grim new release, which will spotlight the whole image of the last live (often only guitar and vocals) and raised in a big way. The first Nick Cave, but also the Movie Star Junkies, a few steps. I also very much appreciated Criminal Jokers and Drink To Me, both excellent writers live in the frame of the stage "small". They completed the lineup: the Sardinians Plasma Expander , Love Boat, Two Bit Dezperados , Thee Oops, Children's Music (very good), Comaneci (creepy as usual), GI Joe (considerable), the English Mujeres and Bradien the Danesin My Bubba and I, the British Cold Pumas , Americans Jonesin ', and still Signorafranca (including veterans of the scene Cagliari e) and Three Second Kiss (high-impact, too). DJ set on Saturday and end on Friday by Michael Myers and Tavrvs .
