As Kai has already outlined in his post over at Stylespion, the Iceland Airwaves Festival this year will have to do without the Sonic Iceland-boys. We have reasons for this aplenty, but mostly it’s the lack of funding, again. And not because we are lazy, but our stay in June has eaten away our budget and all those generous donations, and as we do not have a partner supporting us with hard cash or assignements from other publications, we couldn’t make it.

But I’ll stop whining now, and hope that those attending and playing the festival have a great time.

And if you are the editor of the Rolling Stone magazine or The Quietus and your correspondent in Iceland is sick, please call us. We are good.

In the meantime, I’ll watch this here and keep quietly on crying into my Brennivín:
