"Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, `and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice `without pictures or conversation?' So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her. There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!' (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge. In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again." (Quelle: hier)


Wenn ein Festival nach der Überschrift des ersten Kapitels von Alice im Wunderland benannt ist, muß man sich zwangsläufig ansehen, worum es dabei geht. Hinter der Premiere des Down The Rabbithole Festivals stecken die Macher des Lowlands-Festivals. Während bei uns in Westdeutschland zwischen all den Altherren-Rock-Festivals wirklich schöne Veranstaltungen trotz Maifeld-Derby, Phono Pop oder Haldern weiterhin die Ausnahmen sind, entstehen in den Niederlanden Jahr für Jahr neue Knüller. Vergangenes Wochenede erlebte das Best Kept Secret seine zweite Auflage, an diesem Wochenende treten ein paar Kilometer weiter südlich Künstler wie Damon Albarn, Warpaint, The Black Keys, die wundervolle Courtney Barnett oder Foals auf. 


Besonders am DTRH scheint aber neben der Lage an einem See (das ist in den Niederlanden aber nicht so besonders) das Rahmenprogramm zu sein. Es gibt ein Openair-Kino, Kunstinstallationen in umliegenden Feldern und Wäldern, Comedy, musikalische Geländeführungen... Oh ja, das hört sich alles nach einem Festival nach dem Geschmack von Alice an - oder nach einer erreichbareren kleinen Cousine des wundervollen Latitude Festivals.
