A while ago I went on a mission on my Facebook and Twitter profiles and asked people to “Describe Oppikoppi in three words”. The response was bigger than I expected. I want to thank everyone who participated from the bottom of my music and music festival loving heart.
Oppikoppi 2013 Bewilderbeast is only 5 weeks away and I could definitely sense excitement in many of the responses that I received. I wanted to make a cool video clip with all of these but I just have not had time to do so – maybe I’ll do that before next year’s festival
