People of Airwaves: People thought me weird for going alone to Iceland. By Hjörtur Júlíus Hjartarson 9. nóvember 2014 13:27 Stefano is mostly interested in seeing the Icelandic bands. Vísir/Andri Marínó Stefano from Italy was sitting quietly and going over tonight's programme when our reporter chatted with him. "This is my third year at Iceland Airwaves. The first year I came with my friend to see Sigur Rós but for the past two years I've come alone. It's no problem. My friends think it's weird that I come here alone, but they're not bothered by it." Stefano is mostly interested in seeing the Icelandic bands. "I've seen Jón Jónsson, Sin Fang and Ásgeir Trausti, just to name a few," says Stefano and uses the chance to praise Icelandic music, which only has a few fans in Italy. "I think that Italians only know Sigur Rós, Björk and Emilíana Torrini." He hopes to return next year but admits that a week's stay in Iceland does hurt the wallet, but it's worth it.
