EVENT: Flow Festival in Helsinki 18.-20.08.2006

Few days now, I have passed by this poster what has "Flow Festival in Helsinki" (or something like that) written on it. As it had no more information but the homepage address on it, I just had to find out, what was it all about. It doesn't happen often that you can see a poster of some Finnish festival in the middle of Tallinn. At least I haven't seen those.
Anyway, after checking out the homepage this is the info that I got -
Lots of artists. You can see the list here. I recognized only few names: Candi Staton, Mugison (my favorite Iceland artist for whom I almost would consider visiting the festival...but oh, if I only had more money), TV-Resistori (Heaven Monkey lately is raving about them and some time ago wrote here about their album, quite fun group actually) and Tortured Soul (they gave a concert here in Jazzkaar in the spring).
There should be something for everyone, cause the homepage promises "new indie music, everything from pop to rock and electro to folk. The main focus is, as before, on urban music from hiphop and soul via disco to reggae, and from dance jazz to soulful electronic music."
These concerts take place in four venues in the center (just a wild assumption) of Helsinki.
Age limit is 18.
Tickets cost from 20 to 28 euros, but you also can buy combo tickets if you have more money and interest.

You know, Helsinki is actually a boat drive away, why not to go?
