Sooo!
I wanted to bump this again!
I've been to this reggae festival in Belgium (I'm from The Netherlands)
And it was awesome!!

We saw Toots & The Maytals
Israel Vibration
Tarrus Riley (He did a Michael Jackson tribute; Starting with the beat of Beat it & WYBT and then he sang Human Nature)
Bunny Wailer

I posted a few pics on my Flickr. Couldnt get a good picture of Toots though..
