I managed to get relatively few good cameraphone shots at Fluff Fest 2015, but I had a few. This shot is of Trial, on Saturday.

I managed to get relatively few good cameraphone shots at Fluff Fest 2015, but I had a few. There were a number of old favorites at the festival, including Gattaca, but I didn't manage to get good shots with my cameraphone. This was one of my best shots from Fluff Fest 2015, with decent lighting, and a shooting location close enough so that I didn't have to use digital zoom. This set was on Saturday, soon after I arrived.

I got to see Enough at Cafe na pul cesty back in 2012, and we talked at length. I got to see them at Fluff Fest this year, over the fence as I was pitching my tent, and randomly I met them on the way out. Much more surprisingly, they remembered me.

Vitamin X had as much of the crowd as possible get on the stage and then rush the crowd, jumping into it. It makes a cool video, but mine isn't the best.

Supposedly Vitamin X have been around since the early 1990's, but they haven't settled down.

The guy on the far left is hiding his face because he's wanted for listening to Nickelback.

This is not Avril. :-D

No, they're not going to play that nice song you know. :-D

Someone at the swimming pool called Wolf Down hipsters. Now, maybe they often get confused and call themselved Wolf X Down, as they can't seem to settle on a name, but labels are another story. No, not record labels. I mean, if they're hipsters then......who's NOT a hipster????? The guy in question, who wasn't from New York or even from America said they're hipsters because one or two of them have baseball caps...............................................................................................................................................huh? Besides, they're not from New York. They're German. :-)

If you're into Norah Jones, Alanis Morissette, Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne, Jamie Callum, or Justin Timberlake...........then Wolf Down probably aren't your thing. :-D However, if you hate all of the above, then maybe you will like Wolf Down, especially if you think Megadeth are wimpy soft rock for Clear Channel. :-D

This bright, high-contrast, yet reasonably sharp shot was a lucky accident that resulted from my desperately trying to fit a shadow problem with the very-crude exposure controls my cameraphone has. The band are called Downfall of Gaia.

I've so far seen As We Were three times this year, at Fluff Fest, Klub 007, and Cafe na pul cesty, so I guess the only band I've seen more times this year would be Gattaca, who I've seen four times so far. They're from Burlington, Vermont, of all places, which actually has a healthy hardcore scene.

I DO remember Microvomit's set, as it's the only show I've ever gone to straight from my bed in the wee hours of the morning. It was so loud that it may have been the reason I had some hearing loss when I got home a couple of days later, in spite of having worn plugs for most of the festival. Actually, Microvomit's loudness was probably the reason they were allowed to play the festival, as they don't fit neatly into a punk rock mold. They're more like an incredibly loud fusion band who will happily jam for an hour straight.

I don't remember the Hounds of Hate set very well, but I thought the resulting cameraphone shots were dramatic enough.

Here are another anti-fascist punk band who have a fascist-sounding name: Hounds of Hate.
