It doesn't cost you anything, but a good deed is done :-)
Rock festivals are a very interesting topic, so we try to visit the most interesting ones
taking place in Ukraine. The coolest festival to date was, of course, "Bestcity".
In 2012, in addition to Ukrainian and Russian groups, he brought such masterpieces as Evanescence and Rasmus to Ukraine. You can see fragments of their performance below.
Here is Evanescence - super music!!!
And rasmus were fiery.
The location of the festival was excellent: on the bank of the Samara River in the Dnepropetrovsk region.

Great sunny weather and wonderful camp neighbors left the opportunity to blow and catch bubbles.

You could write whatever you wanted on any surface, judging by the photo - without even looking...

If deep down you are Beethoven or, at worst, Shainsky, the piano allowed you to express yourself in public.

The warmest memories of the fest: that we didn't get enough sleep. How can you get enough sleep when at 6am they're singing "Dozhd" by DDT under your tent? You have to get up and give (on the drum) a rhythm to support these musicians.

We could take pictures on Harleys, because we didn’t know then how much they would influence the political situation in our country.

There was a Cossack island at the festival, where there were Cossack and Polish camps, and I was there in my Krakow cap and T-shirt, in my place. A coincidence? I don't think so...

The concert program report is short. Well, who was there in 2013? Well, Hurts, well, Guano Apes, well, Scorpions... And these are only foreign ones. In this photo, I'm blushing from Shnur's words from "Leningrad".

Cossacks were brought there - the entire Zaporozhian Sich. We watched a reconstruction of the battle near Khotyn, in which about two hundred people took part. Plus guns, plus horses...

Taking a photo with a white flag by an APC was an interesting event at the time. Now a photo with an APC,
In my opinion, they are available to most Ukrainians.

This is how we spent our time in the Novoselytsia park near Dnepropetrovsk in 2012 and 2013.
