showbizThe Dutch group Goldband is extremely popular. Very popular. They notice this at the Cactus Festival in Bruges. So many fans show up that chaos ensues in Bruges city centre. Hundreds of people are just going to miss the performance. Even Goldband’s bassist is stuck in traffic and misses the start of the show.

The performance started around 7 pm, but without a bass player. He only joined halfway through the set. The group waited until then to bring their hit song ‘Emergency’.

The 40th anniversary edition of the Cactus Festival kicked off tonight in Bruges’ Minnewaterpark.
“Today alone, ten thousand festival-goers are present here,” says the organization. “Because it is very hot – until tonight it will remain about 30 degrees – the Red Cross is present on every corner here. People are also allowed to keep their bottle so that they can fill it up with drinkable tap water.”
There are only day tickets for Sunday. For tonight, the festival has been completely sold out for weeks. Almost certainly due to the immensely popular line-up, with performances by the likes of Goose and Arsenal.
