kokoon Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 quote from http://www.jester-records.com/ulver/ulver.html PRESS RELEASE FROM THE NORWEGIAN FESTIVAL OF LITERATURE FEBRUARY 12 2009 The Norwegian Festival of Literature proudly presents: ULVER LIVE AT MAIHAUGSALEN, LILLEHAMMER, SATURDAY MAY 30 2009 Once amongst the pioneers of Norwegian black metal, now living legends of dark experimental music, ULVER are today one of Norway's most acclaimed international artists. While remaining something of a secret treasure back home, a long series of strong releases, most recently the album Shadows of the Sun (2007), has earned them a unique status worldwide. ULVER have since their first album been exclusively a studio band. This being their first live performance in 15 years, the concert at Lillehammer is a historic event. A statement from the band: Last year Mr. Stig Sæterbakken approached us with an offer to play live at the Norwegian Festival of Literature, and after long consideration we have decided to accept the invitation. We go to the job with great humility and horror. Ulver, Oslo, February 11 2009. NOTE: Limited number of tickets. Reservation at www.billettservice.no. so - the question - WHAT'S THE CHEAPEST WAY TO GET TO LILLEHAMMER? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokoon Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 i don't really have that much money. so do I, kokoon. Problem not in distance. save up! you've got plenty of time before the gig. get a second job, etc... i know i would. i mean... i might have to :) looks like we won't be driving there by car, probably interrail (train) for 5 days, or even a combination of plane and train. every time i calculate the costs it's like 100 euro more... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love and respect Ulver so much, even though I listen to the Trilogie way more than the rest of their catalog, even though I was way more into the kinda shit they did William Blake and forward before I got heavy into black metal...
