My god, what a space show! Well into the concert I really lost track of songs, albums, parts, transitions, timings, versions — everything! It was basically one giant space jam and one could hold on to only a few cornerstones here and there. One of these being of course the intro to “Un chien”, which only told us we were going even deeper into space. This version clocked in 25 minutes and featured Snah on droning keys for the majority of the spooky and paranoid jam before they went into a more coventional “The faster we go”-part with Bent giving the tempo on guitar and increasing it to lightspeed with mechanic precision! Snah also played really sweet keys on “Trapdoor” and in “Mountain” of course. “Mountain” lasted 11 minutes and was a bit anticlimatic with its blues rock approach but a juicy jam anyway (Bent on vocals). “Gullible” was INCREDIBLE and it makes happy! Unbelievably psychedelic! Great sound and lights. Venue not sold out but well filled (between 1.000 and 1.200 people). Total playtime 130 min only (due to the support).
I want to say high to everyone I met yesterday (or didn’t meet). See you all again tonight in Bremen!

THANKS to TvdR for the sms report!
The strike in Berlin is supposed to happen “mid next week” with a 24 hour pre-warning by the union. The safest bet is WED+THUR right now. All psychonauts travelling to the Berlin show on TUE should be fine hopefully.
The author of this article will join the tour between Berlin and Bremen, supposedly for another feature about MP’s European success , incl. insights about psychonauts. Cool!
For a possible pre-meeting in Berlin I suggest the lovely Biergarten of Cassiopeia next to Astra (ca. 200m down the street) from 18:00 on or so. Doors in Berlin will open 20:00 and RotoR will go on at 21:00.
Here is a map of the area.
See you!!!
Here is the link to the festival-run label. No further info available.
