Review copies are landing. I met a music acquaintance at a Magma concert last night who said he'd received one for his progressive rock website.
Personally I'd be more than happy to pay for official bootlegs (so to speak), if the band decided to start releasing them, either via a monthly subscription or on a recording-by-recording basis. But some kind of easily accessible database/archive of live recordings would be brilliant.
[POST EDITED as my first comment was already proven incorrect.]
@Blashyrkh – The only thing that bothers me a little is the inconsistency in song titles. Sometimes Uberwagner and The Pilgrim are listed as separate songs, sometimes as Uberpilgrim. Also there are several different variations for the Hell songs, including Victim of Rock, but not Hell 7. These are minor issues and the work required to standardise the titles might just not make it worth it to satisfy one or two nerds :wink: Given the amount of work you all have put into it, I can only praise and thank you for this brilliant resource/archive.
@ Blashyrkh – Thanks for sorting all this out. I also registered yesterday but have not yet received an email.
At the moment I am not listening to Lady May, which was not played at The Forum because apparently Bielefeld does not exist. As a consequence I am not in the throes of ecstasy, because it is not bloody amazing!
I'll play

@Juergen – thanks
Oh my giddy aunt! (Old english expression meaning "Holy fucking shit!") :wink:
I see from photos that the stage looks quite small, with the drums set up close to the front of the stage. Do they always play that venue when in Bielefeld? I might have to consider making a trip there on a future tour.
Thanks, Dogonz and fillmore, for the brilliant reviews – I can almost feel the sweat!
With Frances, Victim of Rock, and Rattlesnake, they reach over 70 different songs played this tour, if my count is right. (Juergen, can you confirm?)
Reads like an incredible show. Thanks for the setlist clarifications and thank you fillmore for the review.
@SueIsFine – You didn't mention being foggy but you did say you had had some weed before the show – so maybe high rather than dreaming :lol: Anyway, during the encore at Cologne I was convinced I was listening to them play Starhammer, when in the end it turned out to be The Tower! :lol: I was under the influence of the same herbal remedy as you :wink:
