The
region of Sweden that the band grew up in, is called Jamtland. At
this time of the year a big festival (storsjöyran, or the"great
lake party") is held to celebrate this beatiful area of the
country. It´s now become the biggest city festival in Sweden.
The boys in 220 V played on the opening night of this festival,
but not outdoors on the festival itself.
The
"national anthem", Jamtlands song, is always sung and
praised around this time of year (because of the festival). 220
V wanted to incorporate that in their show, but done properly with
a violin. So the violin wizard, and the bands favorite, Kjell-Erik
Eriksson from Hoven Droven (www.hovendroven.com) was asked and agreed
to help out on a song or two. It turned out that the song "Sauron"
seemed appropriate. The Jamtlands song was sneaked in and the whole
song was re-arranged for that purpose. Much appreciated by the audience!
Since
Kjell-Erik now had turned in to a hard rocking guy, the guys in
220 V wanted him to have a nickname and dubbed him Sir "Kill-Erik".
May he live long!!
Another friend of the band, Rob Hellström, helped out with
some backing vocals.
What
about the rest of the show
well, it was a heavy night and we
know the band thought it was magic. The concert was caught on tape
and we 've recieved a small "taster" from the show. Thanks
guys.....
