Default Cactus Festival / Bruges (Belgium)

Damien is playing at Cactus Festival in Bruges (Belgium) in July.
Maybe a good sign that there will be more European gigs this summer?

It's a smaller festival than the ones he did last year. Not an ideal setting for an intimate gig though. He's playing the 9th of July (Saturday)

Very nice!! I might go, although I'm in London to see Anohni the 7th and 8th...hmm

Hope more dates will follow. Not so keen on the festivals though...

Well, I guess I'm going (it's too close by not to).
Unless there's a better option (a non festival gig) 'round the same time. Then I might skip this

I have friends that have been to Cactus and told me it's nice and small but people are a bit rude/chatty as in very drunk

Hehe. I know. This might be very much like Galway last year. (And it'll be a short festival set)

I wouldn't expect him to do multiple shows is Belgium. Maybe 'exclusive' just makes it sound, well... more exclusive

I'm letting this one go...I thought it was worth the extra money to have a SEAT and SUN in Pistoia ))
Plus, italians are much shorter than Belgians, so chances of a good view are gooood

ah, but Belgians are a lot shorter than Dutchies, so that shouldn't be a problem
I'm planning on bringing my camera and seeing this one for free (fingers crossed, but chances are good) & maybe just relaxing in a comfy seat in Pistoia

Hehe. Well, hopefully I'll be standing in front of you, behind the barriers, so you're forgiven
