RIO festival 2010

The program of the Rock In Opposition Festival had now been finalized!

A new edition that will explore new directions and cover many genres: from Peter Brötzmann adventurous free jazz to Sleepytime Gorilla Museum's surrealistic metal and Gong's joyful mysticism.

And that will feature a few exceptional acts: Art Bears Songbook in French exclusivity and Thierry Zaboïtzeff, a long-time awaited guest who was one of the masterminds behind Art Zoyd, a group that constitutes a reference for the promoters of the Festival.

So, here it comes: the official program of the 2010 Rock In Opposition Festival!
