At least they played Diana @ Duna Jam:

And sounds like a segue into Hogwash at the end.

[otherdemon]

Oh yeah, I’m totally digging Hanno’s bootlegs. Great sound and nice performance!

Only annoying thing was the guy in the right channel who screamed his lungs out several times during Un Chien :lol:

[otherdemon]

Very small chances, I think. They have never played anywhere in the Czech Republic before

[otherdemon]

Jeg tror rett og slett de har innsett at folk som regel kommer til konsertene pga. uforutsigbarheten samt de instrumentale ferdighetene. Riktig at vokalen var bedre i pop-perioden, men da kunne de ikke skjule låtene bak fuzz-pedaler heller. Så da prioriterte de nok det vokale arbeidet litt mer (pluss at Baard hjalp til med å avlaste Bent og Snah, og han pisset på dem begge vokalt :lol: )

Motorpsycho er vel det ultimate beviset pÃ¥ at man ikke trenger Ã¥ være store vokalister for Ã¥ skaffe seg en lang og relativt vellykket karriere innen musikk. Det holder lenge med lÃ¥tskriver-talent, tekniske ferdigheter samt samspill og “jamming power”.

For min egen del har jeg vel egentlig akseptert vokalen som en viktig bestanddel i deres totale uttrykk. PÃ¥ sitt beste fungerer det som en skeiv/sjarmerende motvekt til det musikalske landskapet, mens pÃ¥ sitt verste er vel Bent & Snah som tonedøve okser i en porselens-butikk :mrgreen: Men sÃ¥nn er virkeligheten, and I wouldn’t want it any other way really… Jeg tror faktisk ikke Motorpsycho hadde vært noe særlig større enn de er nÃ¥ uansett om de hadde vært bedre vokalister. Rett og slett fordi de er for uforutsigbare, for ukommersielle, mer interessert i Ã¥ følge sin egen tripp og visjon enn Ã¥ kompromisse FOR MYE med platekjøperne.

NÃ¥r det gjelder tekstene er jeg enig i at Bent er undervurdert som tekstforfatter. Men for meg er det musikken som er alfa omega, sÃ¥ akkurat dèt spiller ikke sÃ¥ stor rolle for meg. Tekstene blir egentlig en “added bonus”, selv om det er noen av dem som virkelig treffer rett hjem.

[otherdemon]

Yeah, I posted that thread (although MP playing that festival was confirmed quite a while ago)

If anyone sees any summer-festival dates, please use that thread

[otherdemon]

Wow, these vids are amazing! Thx a lot man!

[otherdemon]

Am I the only one who doesn’t like The Visitant? Me thinks it’s pretty generic and unfinished.

Really good versions of Starhammer and Un Chien though.

[otherdemon]

“Giftland” was played in 1993, 1994 and ca. 10 times in spring 2002. The last performance was in Trondheim 1992-04-27 – apart from today!

Ahem, sure you don’t mean 2002-04-27? :lol: Because I remember hearing it in Oslo the day before :lol:

@otherdemon Where to find footage of the 1994 Rome gig with Mountain? Youtube did not give me any

The whole damn thing was seeded at Dimeadozen. Not sure if it’s still up there now, but it was back then…

[otherdemon]

Well yeah. But the last time they played Mountain in its entirety was back in 1994.

[otherdemon]

Actually, they did the same dance moves at the same point of the song back in 1994 when they last played Mountain.

Check out the Rome 1994 video for evidence. Only difference is that Bent had dreads, and Snah was bald back then. And of course the 16 years inbetween :lol:

[otherdemon]

Nice, first time ever that Un Chien & Mountain has been played at the same gig.

Here’s hoping for some boots from this tour :lol:
