as long as we're asking nicely and patiently and not kind of stating "we deserve this as fans and other artists are ok with it and think of your exposure". :wink:
Dime works for me, though. But I usually grab the latest recordings and listen to them once or twice and that's it.

Song played most often: no idea but I feel it might be Heartattac Mac
Songs anticipated most: I'm always giddy for H-Mac, Taifun, STG, Alchemyst, Ship of Fools & TGC
Songs anticipated super most: The Wheel & NOX
Songs never heard live: The Wheel & NOX
Specials:
– going to see them in '95 in Köln for the first time, not recognizing them when they played until almost the end of the show due to mostly new/unreleased material and me being unaware of the line-up running order (4 bands).
– opening for them twice in '97 and sucking at it. But at least there's been a loose connection backstage say hello chat thingy now and then ever since.
– TDDU at the opera, no words
– those 3 shows in 2018 within 4 days and almost walking distance in little switzerland
listening to the recording:
STG 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O what a tornado! a wohnsinn!
and how small is this place? according to the pics it must be super small.
@johnny
I do hope so. Of course the two shows I've seen on this tour were as satisfyingly great as usual without NOX. Luck of the draw. :mrgreen: I'm just a bit sceptical about future performances. Like TDDU that's been done and done. At least I got that one at the Oslo opera. :MPD:
thanks pj, I edited it. Could have sworn it came later, but must've been the famous MP aftershow dizziness.
Yes, Diana was a steamtrain in ültraoverdrive. And the Pilgrim section built and built supported by stop'n'go killswitch lighting, switching between white light and total blackout n'sync to the breaks in the riffing. Very intense.
Also I've never heard Reine so distinctively before, me standing on his stage side both shows this time. Thanks Reine! Thanks Tomas!
No NOX, though
Chances are they never play it in its entirety on future tours with new material looming on the horizon…
Though according to my companion it wasn‘t quite as good as Franz Ferdinand who we went to see a few weeks ago.
But she‘s allowed to say that, she saw MP in 93.
