    Sounds similar with and like the main difference between the superior Thessaloniki, where i live, and Athens, the graceless capital!

    No, it's two hours from Granada and about three hours from Madrid. I'm taking the second option this year.

    So D, if you are at liberty to talk, why didn´t Soncinemad take place last year (and I assume this year neither)? I mean, the first two years were a success! It´s unbeliabable that a festival that takes place in THE capital hasn´t a continuity, and then Úbeda grows year after year even though it takes place in one of the (spanish) regions with less public investment.

    SONCINEMAD was a huge success and people loved it, they constantly demand more. But the reasons behind the 2 last years' failure of succession are purely of technical and financial nature. I don't know them all in depth nor this is the place to discuss them, but believe me, nothing's dead. Not even close, we are working to pass those problems.

    We all know about the global economic crysis, but for god´s sake, financial problems in the almighty capital, where all the power and money is? I mean somebody should be backing up a cultural inititive like this one. And even more after two years of big success.

  18. Thanks for being so candid, Demetris.

    If I'm going to be going to Spain this summer (and that's not definite yet) then I can only go to one festival (if there are going to be two). Choosing between a festival that's in place and one that's not even putting out preliminary information isn't really a choice at all.
    shame

    I hope that any plans can be published as soon as possible - even it's to say SONCINEMAD 2009 won't happen.

    It's not all that surprising that a festival of that kind should rather continue in Úbeda, where the only other great happening is the Olive Celebration festival (or something), so it should be relatively easy to get people and local businesse enthused about sponsoring another potential veru interesting source of income and local branding.

    Madrid assuredly is awash with events of this kind, so any subsidies, grants and local business endorsements are a lot harder to come by.

    More's the shame. slant

    I think I'll cancel as well. The whole hassle, and extra cost to get there, already discourages me. Also the fact that there's nothing to see there, besides a nice town and the events itself, does not fit my idea of visiting the region/cities around, lets say, like Bristol and Bath for instance, which was worth the extra stay.

    Eventually, Giacchino will attend Ghent anyway, and JNH is coming next year too.

  21. There´s always a third option barely commented: Tenerife.

    I attended the Fumicite festival last year and was totally awesome. Summer time, beautiful girls, amazing people and the best orchestra by far I ever heard performing film music.

    There are some clips I watched from one of the organizers facebook. Very surprising video and audio quality.

    If I could, I would attend this year both Ubeda and Fumicite.

    Ghent is also an option. It's just 3 hours with a train... Ghent is known for its beautiful girls (well, as in my age). No bikinis though.

    But well, not many attend the concerts here. Pook you all!

    Yeah, Ghent's much worse. biggrin

    Srsly, it's a lot more practical. Although I do like the tiny size of Ubeda. It's just kind of cool to have a load of composers and a load of fans essentially take over a town for a weekend. But admittedly there are a lot better places that could happen.
  27. I feel envy for you Martjin. I hope I could go there again so soon!

    Tenerife had this last summer!!
    At first I thought that maybe someone with too much spare time was fooling and joking. Who could have in the same place, at the same time Trevor Rabin, Chris Young, Reinhold Heil, Ramin Djawadi, Johnny Klimek, Joel MacNaely...?

    I landed there and this, this and this is what I enjoyed for five wonderful days.
