Rokkilokin Rentoshow (Rocking Seagull’s Relaxavaganza, or something, I dunno) couldn’t have lived up to its name more. People started to trickle in, unnoticeably, little by little, spreading over the turf with a few souls finding their way to the boogie in front of the stage.
I’m not sure of the cause, whether it be the Sunday, or rocking through the weekend, but the audience seemed a little weary. Too weary for a dancing frenzy anyway, but I’m sure that wasn’t even the intention. The main objective here was relaxation. The group known as Rokkilokin rentoshow hasn’t been making a big fuss of itself, but its members are big-name figures in the Finnish hip-hop scene, including Jodarok, Aksim, Super-Janne, Kim Rantala, Arttu Tolonen, Flava, Väiski and J-Laini.
Even though the crowd was a little worn-down, the group got them to sing along and sway soothingly to the music.
