doctor music festival, Escalarre, La Vall D'Aneu, Lleida, Pyrenees, Spain
Initially scheduled for The Sisters of Mercy's European Summer Festivals 2019, but then unfortunately and sadly cancelled by the organisers.
According to the former website of the organisers, Doctor Music Festival was the most legendary
festival ever in Spain. It took place regularly from 1996-2000. The 2019 Reincarnation Edition
of the so called "Spanish Woodstock" was to offer an enormous number of bands packed into
"4 days of music, friendship and nature, designed to enrich your mind, satisfy your body and
uplift your soul".
Unfortunately for organisers and fans alike, this plan would come to nothing. In April, the entire
festival had be to moved from Escalarre, La Vall D'Aneu, Lleida in the Spanish Pyrenees to the
Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya racecourse in Montemeló north of
Barcelona, and in June,
the festival got cancelled completely.
Initially, The Sisters of Mercy had been announced on the festival's official line-up page
and also in the envisaged running order giving the time and detailled location of their slot.
A Heartland Forum thread for Doctor Music Festival was installed here ...
