Upyourears was a diy music festival which took place from the 4th-6th September 2009 on Schwarzer Kanal.
There were three days of all manner of queer musicians, from hiphop to punkrock, to indie, to electro, to accoustic.
Gloria viagra opened the festival, with her band "squeezebox", gertrude and sleazy-inc rocked the friday night, aj shati did a great cover of the indigo girls on sunday afternoon, and largakt.il played a memorable set at 2am Saturday night! We were blessed with the absence of police but cursed by the weather!!
