Excellent gig – probably 8.5 out of 10 possible Motorpoints. Could have been 9 had not the sound turned to mud when they turned up the volume for "Crucible". Probably I was too close to stage P.A. once again – Bent's amp pointing almost directly at me. You know what you get…
I could have been warned when Bent introduced the double-neck guitars as true battleships: "Meet… Bismarck! And Tirpitz!"
Btw.: wasn't the Tirpitz sunk in Trondheim Fjord in WW2?
btw: Other Fool Reference was in fact Xhol Caravan this time – ha! didn't I tell you…
Even saw a guy with a huge "Xhol Xaravan" logo/sticker on the back of his jacket. Weird, but great!
I count 4 1/2 covers, if you count the …pilgrim in "Ãœber…" as half a song.
Of course you could also count "Eagle's Spin" as one track, but wtf…
Surely Motorpsychedelic Jukebox that night!
Tension is rising – also looking forward to tonight's gig. Some of my favourites were on the setlist in Hannover, so probably not tonight. But who knows – probably the first Chien instead? Or another fantastic You Lied – Hogwash – Black to Comm? Or something completeley different?
Sadly my time schedule is rather tight – arrive at Wiesbaden station around 19.30 – walk to Schlachthof 10 minutes, meet friend(s), search for good place front of stage left (my ears!!!).
Hopefully they start on time at 20.00 or shortly after – my train leaves at 23.38…
The other fool reference tonight – "Let's get some weed and listen to Xhol Caravan"?
(Krautrock band from Wiesbaden – recommended!)

@ Deadnautpsychohead: I don't get it – could be any MP song intro – Ship of Fools – or is it Serpentine? Hard to recognize – it's only a few seconds after all. Enlighten me!
wot – no surprises? C'mon – 30min Lacuna/Sunrise, Blueberry Daydream – rarely played this tour so far! That having said, I do firmly hope for 577 in Wiesbaden! They could rather skip the triple Spin or change it back into an acoustic song imho…
Probably the glorious (Gn)Om(e) Riff a.k.a. "Master Builder" by Gong after The Other Fool?
If so – would have been a good set list for me.
Probably the adequate MP 30th anniversary celebration – didn't it all start with a record bying excurstion to London in 1989? At least the now legendary Russ Meyer name choice happened then…
Oh yes, Comus!

I bet there's lots more weird stuff out there…
The Glorious Om Riff a.k.a. Master Builder! Welcome to the club, MP – after Invisible Opera Company of Tibet, Ozric Tentacles, Acid Mothers Temple and probably a lot more MP are part of the Om Riff Cover Conspiracy.
As a once diehard Gong fan I can only welcome this new facette to the ever growing MP covers and citations kaleidoscope.
I pesonally do not have issues with torrents as long as they are widely accessable and not too strictly regulated. Imho Motortrades is a far too close or specialized community to guarantee a regular flow of downloads for both downloaders and providers. I'm fine with Dime (note the rhyme
) – but a Motorpsycho collection on archive.org would be a wonderful thing – finally MP next to Grateful Dead in what they do (they already are, btw).
