Imagine a small village in the north of France, seemingly stuck in the 19th century with its robust brick facades and windows adorned with arches. You could easily walk around the whole place in half an hour and there really isn’t anything much to see besides a church dating around the late 1700s and some flat but really mesmerizing scenery. What happens if you gather up a team of locals and a lineup of bands and artists, all of whom are more or less active in the extreme underground metal and punk scene, and invite them to play at what is essentially an all-ages friendly festival with name your price entrance fee system? If your imaginative skills aren’t as sharp, don’t stress. The concept described previously is an actual festival with a simple name: Rock in Bourlon.
