StonerKras Fest to Hold Inaugural Edition Aug. 20; Nebula Confirmed
When Nebula announced their extensive European tour back in April, the Aug. 20 date in Trieste, Italy, was left as a TBA, and it’s been revealed that the reason for that is that the band’s first Euro run supporting their new album, Transmission From Mothership Earth — which was itself announced just about two weeks ago — will cap at the inaugural edition of the StonerKras Fest, a collaboration between Rocket Panda Management (this means I won’t be surprised when Trieste locals Buss are added) and Slovenia’s Mladinski Krožek Prosek-Kontovel. The stated mission is to represent both regions, and fair enough since there’s plenty of heavy to go around, but with Nebula on board, their reach proves immediately international and I doubt the Cali legends will be the only act from elsewhere to play.
Though I say that and I have no idea how many bands there will be on the finished bill, so take it for what it is in being next-to-baseless speculation, but whatever. Even as a single-day all-dayer, I have every reason to believe this won’t be the last edition of StonerKras Fest given the personnel involved, and who knows, maybe you’ll be in that part of the world in August following Nebula on tour like some kind of hippie revivalist thing and you’ll hit this one up. Or maybe you’re just sitting on your ass thinking it would be rad to go someplace you’ve never been and have a once-in-a-lifetime experience there. I say do it. Life’s too short and too generally wretched to let that kind of opportunity slip. As ever: quit your dayjob. For yourself, if not for rock and roll.
