thanks for the info! I'm a fan of music festivals happening in different parts of the world... A Marrakech event called the Gnawa music festival in Morocco is the most recent music festival i witnessed! ;)

wow... there's going to be a huge concert in Israel too, one of the biggest metal festivals to hit the region, called the Anthem Festival - Dark Tranquillity, The Haunted, Opeth, Meshuggah, Nevermore... etc. One thing I noticed though is that tourism to concerts has its own niche already, they make a lot of organized tours to world festivals from Israel... blackdiamond13 @ Jemsite
