Last weekend there was another huge event at Hundvåg fritidsklubb. This is Cristina's club and it is on one of the islands. Means it belongs to Stavanger, but you have to cross two bridges across the fjord and two other islands before you arrive there. At least you don't have to take the ferry. Hundvåg is a district just like Tasta or Sunde, but the event was for the while town: Øyarock.
This is one of the biggest festivals for youngsters run by Ungdom og Fritid. Eight bands (including two from Tasta) played at the festival and all four of us worked as volunteers. Pavel helped with light and sound, Vincent visited the concert together with the youngsters from his youth club and Cristina, Elena and me were responsible for the kitchen.
We arrived at two o'clock and started immediately with cooking. The food for the bands and for selling had to be done until five. So 20 artists, the crew and approximately 150 guests had to fed. We made taco-, two noodle-, and couscous salad, hamburgers and veggie burgers, baked potatoes and bread. Three people, music, high motivation and high efficiency :D It was so much fun, I do not know if they could have given me any better task. Hard work, but great. When the concert started, we took turns in selling food and filming/ taking pictures of the concert. The bands played until 22:00, but afterwards we had to tidy up and put all the equipment (including light/ sound consoles, curtains and the whole stage) back into trucks outside. So we worked until have past eleven. It was very intense, but the whole festival was such a huge success that we still managed to celebrate a bit afterwards.
The bands were really good, the audience happy and the food sold ;)
