We are richer by yet another open-air festival! It’s called Sick As We Are, and it takes place in Županja. So Županja has got an underground festival of its own! It hasn’t, in fact “got” it, since festivals do not drop down out of a clear sky. They are a result of someone’s persistence and organizing enthusiasm. The crew of the Multicultural Centre of the Town of Županja are the usual suspects for the festival Sick As We Are premiering in Županja on July 10 and 11.
Twelve fierce bands from Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary and Austria will appear on the festival stage:
- Aktivna Propaganda (Ljubljana / Kranj, Slovenia),
- Deafness By Noise (Samobor, Croatia),
- Motus (Zagreb, Croatia),
- Børedøm (Graz, Austria),
- Diverzija (Osijek, Croatia),
- Ljubiša Samardžić (Zagreb, Croatia),
- In-Sane (Ljubljana, Slovenia),
- PasMaters (Pula, Croatia),
- Hidden Layer (Zagreb, Croatia),
- New Dead Project (Budapest, Hungary),
- Bakterije (Čakovec, Croatia),
- Reanimacija (Pula, Croatia).
Apart from concerts, S.A.W.A. also prepares an exhibition of photos taken during the student protest about free education in Zagreb and Osijek, an action called “Food, not bombs”, a few DIY distributions where you’ll be able to buy various T-shirts, CDs, badges, stickers, fanzines etc, and some theme showings and listenings as well.
