Quote:Bent really hit a guy with his bass? Don’t underestimate viking heritage…
If you check out Dampsaba, there are some hilarious notes on some of the early setlists there :lol:
Actually I’m in a way glad that something like this happened. Just shows that they are humans who make mistakes, just like the rest of us.
Actually I thought that the reaction was somewhat appropriate. The reason: He only punished the one individual who was blatantly ruining TGC for everyone.
If Bent’d have yelled something like “thanks a lot for singing out of tune during an instrumental section, you fucking douchebag”, that could’ve killed the mood and atmosphere for approx. everyone present.
It would of course be a different matter if Bent jumped into the crowd and beat the guy in the head with his bass-guitar (like he did back in the old punk-days :lol: )

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:
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.
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
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.
