Thank you! A wonderful read!
Makes me wonder if they could enter a new golden era a la the Geb era if they manage to keep Ingvald and do not confuse audiences now with ever-changing drummers and styles.
Yes, a priceles little moment, Martn. Made me chuckle too.
I made a braindump here the day after the concert, but it disappeared when I made edits. Basically I thought, and still think the concert was too heavy on the heavy songs, I missed some breathers and more jams. The biggest take-away was that Ingvald already was very impressive, only three gigs in. Of the three a saw this time (Trondheim, Malmö and Copenhagen), Malmö was my favorite because of the well-balanced setlist including Babylon, Cosmoctopus, Lacuna, and long Nothing to Say incl. Mountain-jam.
Judging from the recordings from the rest of the tour, a new Roadwork would be justified!

Still up but not updated. Just to say that both databases are valuable as they offer different approaches. I love the statistics page here (gap in concerts/song before/song after). It’s deliciously nerdy!

dk@bionaut: yes, back in 2016 it was easy enough to join motortrades.org, but when was the last time someone were able to join? We seem to be the same people for the last many years. The only one who can let new members in is “Jim”, and this person seems to have left the community. Tracker is still up and running, but who knows for how long? It’s a mystery to me, because someone must surely be paying to keep the domain?
Anyway, I share the frustrations if those who have problems with Dime. The ratio-thing is a pain, although I see Spacebandit’s tip that it is possible to pay instead. I was not aware of that. I just also discovered that using a VPN client can disturb torrents, so it also comes down to a matter of internet security. Lastly I do not have my computer on 24/7/365, so I need a bit of luck to catch everything, which is why I am so thankful for the wetransfers.
Yes, thank you Wulf! I have wanted to say that many times.
Thanks to everyone recording, mastering and sharing! It means a lot.Now that we are playing old covers again, it’s time to bring back The House At Pooneil Corners! Their coolest cover ever.
And it has to start with that angst-inducing do-di-do-di-dee, do-di-do-di-DEE-organ! That was opportunities missed both when Ståle joined them, as well as when Deathprod returned for Demon Box anniversary.They have a tendency to dry out towards the end, but let’s see.
Are you still keeping count of all the songs played, Jürgen?
Looks like another good one. They keep introducing two new songs per night. Nice to see PPP there, surprising to se Young Man Blues.
@Be (and anyone else still on the fence): Setlist is secondary, we all know that. If you have even just the slightest of opportunities to do so, do your future self a favour and go see at least one concert of this tour!
I liked it much more than Trondheim. Both setlist and playing was more to my liking. Quality over quantity. Or, just something completely else.
New drummers are inevitably going to be compared, and Ingvald reminded me very much of Geb, who for me will always be the one to compare with. Again a man who can play both old and new. Without criticizing Kenneth and Tomas, nor Olaf, Ingvald has that Motorpsycho punch – that drive – that is so important. He playes with great variation and ingenuity, without overloading the overall sound. This, together with the absense of Reine – and it’s a crime that we have no Roadwork with him – opened up for the classic MP trio dynamics, much like we know them from Roadwork 1.
Attendance a bit better than last year, my estimation approx 150 very attentive people. You could hear that needle drop after Cosmoctopus, one of several magic moments.
Tonight: Copenhagen. And then my tour is already over, just when they are getting started…
