The transformation...

I've wanted to go to Voov (nowadays Vuuv) for many years, having heard of it as a mecca of european festivals, now in it's 15th? year. On the back of the Boom experience last year, I have to say this fest measures up. It reminds a lot of Canada's WEMF, of course the major difference being that it's entirely psytrance/prog oriented and the crowd is a lot older.
