There could have not been a better way to start sunday at the Sue Stage. Wasted went straight to business with their straight-forward punk sound. There’s nothing like the fresh smell of hang-over sweat as Wasted woke everybody up for a new festival day.
This band doesn’t need any introductions in these parts of Finland. On Sunday at the Sue Stage, these local lads presented hit song after hit song. Wasted can be regarded as one of the most influential punk bands in Finland for the past 20 years. Band’s sound has stood the test of, and these days Wasted brings together punk fans from all generations. By the end of the gig, Wasted’s clean punk had woken up even the sleepiest ones in the audience. After this blast everybody was ready for a new day.
