Starsailor at H2000 in Istanbul Turkey in 2003

Starsailor were the headlining band on the third day of the H2000 Music Festival in Istanbul, Turkey. H2000 was celebrating its 4th year this year and featured other acts such as the Fun Lovin Criminals, Queen Adreena, Rubin Steiner Quartet and many more.

Although there were certain technical and organizational problems, the festival's beautiful setting on a beach and the music made most of the worries forgotten.

When Starsailor took the stage the night of the 22nd, the wait was finally over. They started their set with a slower number but once the band broke into Poor Misguided Fool, the whole bay echoed with the voices of the audience cheering and singing along. Even though the band played a rather short set, they left the audience satisfied and acted as the perfect way to close the festival.

P.S. Kudos to the crew who were also a pleasure to work with.
