          @welcomehome & @cloudhawker, thanks for this info.

          This concert registration should i.m.o. be placed on the motorpsychodelic Clips page as well, but I don't know about the rights to it etc…Anyway, great that it will be available later :-)

            Well now…..I have to agree with Ratmaus, I feel a bit disapointed about this ditty.

            The sound and the singing take me back to the 'pop-trilogy' years, where some great songs, to my ears anyway, were shitted by over-production. But…still expecting The All Is One to be mindblowing in total. Previous time around, when the first track came available through some rock radio station, and it was Psychoczar, I remember I was so elevated and just couldn't stop playing the track, meanwhile sending the link to everybody I know. This time… er…I'll just bide my time, waiting for something Greener, aha!

              That was wonderful, so lucky I checked the forum (only at 20.30) and read Thor's post about the streaming. Wonderful sounds came from God's womb tonight.

              Hope this will be available to rewatch in some form

                  Aha! Eureka! :idea:… These speculations about the meaning of the songtitles really NOX me out! Have been pondering 'Ascension' ; I was thinking of John Coltrane ( a distant forefather of Glenn Branca), his 1965 'Ascension' was a big band freejazz exploration, set up in a way MP might have done for a big piece with some guest musicians. But surely ascension means also simply going upstairs to your man's cave, or in the case of Jesus going 'up' to 'his Father's' realm. Personally I guess MP are refering to the mancave, they must have foreseen the months of isolation to come… :idea: :D

                    Friends, I am glad we have something substantial to discuss again on this forum! Now if we could only have live concerts like we used to……………(craving, craving)

                    Good to read everybody back in town!

                      I think the artwork overall reflect both their being from that certain timeperiod (of course unavoidable) and a kind of growing up of MP to maybe being a bit more mature force of art/music.

                      Like Johnny I like most of it through the years, but regarding HBM I see the part two sleeve more fitting to the actual here be monsters song, and the cover for the first part cd/lp is the only MP cover art I dislike, to bleak for such a collection of moods the music brings i.m.o. It always seemed to me K.H. got a big 'carte blanche' from the band for the cover art, and you could follow him on a designers' journey through ideas, colors,it had a kind of punky attitude (my favorite: the sleeve/inner sleeve/fold out poster for Child of the Future). The recent cover art with the Gulvag paintings, i.m.o. brings more reflection, even philosophy into the whole presentation,for me they work like an extra track to absorb, but through the eyes instead of the ears. Still, I would like the art, after this 'trilogy' of albums to be different and surprising once more (twice, thrice more etc!)for this is MP, the ever refreshing well of ideas (and styles)! And b.t.w. I think it was hilarious last tour they came up with those cartoon-styled t-shirts, never take yourself too seriously, excellent!

                        Indeed! I prefer a stage setting with props like these to the nowadays in-your-face lightshows with sometimes barely noticable background projection of recent MP gigs I attended. There was a Dutch band in the eighties called Sammy America's MAM that used to perform in pyjamas with table lamps as stage-lighting, it used to give a truly homey and absurdistic effect (this band live kicked ass by the way).

                        ThorEgil; I don't know a lot about photography but I'm curious, gigs where the audience is bombed with light instead of the band performing on stage, is that problematic when you're working to get good images? (or maybe digital technique solves that?)

                          Thank you guys for the report and pictures on this. So good to see a potted (pot?) plant up there on stage with them. I always put mine on top of the speakers, as it is a known fact plants enjoy sound vibrations, especially from music with powerful bass, so it's clear they must be psychonauts by nature. Yep, plants & psychonauts, and music to make the juices flow.

                          Guess MP won't be taking O.P. along touring Europe, but I hope there will be some registration of the gig coming up, I haven't yet gotten into the music yet a lot (knee deep in VanDerGraaf territory these weeks) but these guys will always come up with something sincere & worthwhile.

                              @supernaut I imagine all of us psychonauts counting down the last 10 seconds aloud and then…..nothing/all ! Made me laugh out loud, this is Motorpsycho, the greatest band in the world and yet sometimes so modest. Guess it was up to us to perform some private ritual, so I opened a big bottle of beer, shook out some extra long hairs and did not clip my beard. Obladi, oblada! :lol:

                                Amazing material, and fun to watch with Snah looking like Don Van Vliet (but thinner) and Bent like Cousin It and Geb like well ehm, Geb that athlete of the Vikingboat drums. Uh oh, last minutes ticking away right now on the countdown clock, everybody get the fireworks ready! :MPD:

                                  …hophipping and rapping? Good grieve. The beastie boys they are not. I'm eagerly awaiting results of that Stravinsky and other modern-classical composers influence, though! With their talent for awe-inspiring melodies and power build-ups without bombast that could bring them even beyond the courts of the progrock kings!
