of <strong>in</strong>die-music festivals, a long tradition.<br />
It spreads the good vibes for<br />
the sixth time, with the help of the<br />
best <strong>Estonia</strong>n and foreign bands. All<br />
well chosen to fi t the very special<br />
mood of the festival. Once aga<strong>in</strong>,<br />
the visitor is likely to s<strong>ee</strong> a kaleidoscopically<br />
vivid crowd and effectively<br />
decorated festival grounds. It<br />
all happens on a warm summer day<br />
<strong>in</strong> Kil<strong>in</strong>gi-Nõmme, a t<strong>in</strong>y town <strong>in</strong><br />
southwest <strong>Estonia</strong>.
