???
First of all, thanks to to Bent and Snah for allowing and spreading audience recordings. It’s ok with them, but I don’t think they take too much care of that. I once asked Bent for a Soundboardpatch and he simply said “No”.
As we say in german “Thema erledigt”.
Thanks for all the praises about Mr. Wulfs recordings, but to be honest it was a tough time to work on those.
So there are soon more alternative recordings coming over at Dime. Just listened to a great one from Berlin.
Sorry, I do not post on MT, “too many trackers are like too many cooks”. If you got one, just use WeTransfer or anything to share like I always do before posting a new show.Keep in mind, this is our all favourite band, so be careful about anything you want.
Best from TYSKONAUTIC CENTER BIELEFELD,
SpaceyI’m not going to make a “final” statement, as there are a lot more shows to come. Listening to the audio tapes done, I agree that the acoustic set is a bit of warm-up. How about Blueberry Daydream oder Spirit’s “Nature’s way”? The electric set has a lot of “routine” with the start altering between “Sentinels” or “Chariots”. “Arne” is always a stand-out, but I’m a bit tired of “Gullible”. But great to hear “Hoghallehog” back.
I wonder…wonder…wonder…”Fool’s gold”, “The golden core”, “Unchain the space” or – to me – the exceptional experience of a “Wheel”.
But as it’s the first tour with Ingvald (I hope he stays for a long time!), no forcing at all. Just complaining on the highest level.Well, my first MP show in almost 18 months and some 7+ more years since the last played Oldenburg. What I remembered was the barrier in front of the stage (which was kind of low) and the balcony with a seating area. Nowadays that I more enjoy seated shows (especically with such a length), I didn’t know that there were special tickets for the balcony, which I couldn’t purchase via Eventim. So, when I wanted to enter that cozy area, the very nice security guard just said “no”. But he gave me the advise to come back later after the show started. So after about 15 min. into the acoustic set I made my second try. The guy simply nodded twoard the entrance adding “A few seats are still free”. THANK YOU!!!
So I immediately started to unload my recording equipment and started taping.
What recognized at the start of the electric portion was that “Uncle Fuzz” did pull his bass on level 11 of 10. Or maybe 12. Whilst the most of the show was a fine listening (another gorgeous “Lacuna/Sunrise”, I simply had problems identify “the Alchemyst” at all.
IngWILD is a lunatic. Bashing all over, very nice to watch from the balcony.
“Inside looking out” was a fine change from the overplayed “Rock Bottom”.
Let’s see what’s in the bag for tonight in Düsseldorf.Hi from Tyskland,
sorryto say, but I have to disagree with most of what has been written here. I like to keep it short.
By the time Kenneth left in May 2016, I felt the band has reached extraterrestrial heights with albums like LLM oder HMF. Sure, there were a few weaker albums following, but HBM showed the right direction.
With the “Tower-Trilogy” the uncles and Tomas ripped it up totally for me. Most of my favourite shows hail from that era. Yes, you can critize me for not seeing them before 2008 (by accident on Burg Herzberg), but I kew their music since the gorgeous “Wheel” on TM in 1994. But I was on straight Dead-Diet those days and every attempt from friend to pull me over to a show was just “Too heavy, no space”. So, since then I’ve enjoyed a mere 50+ shows, with personal highlights here in Bielefeld, 2008-10-14 + 2022-05-24. Maybe it’s because of that I chose this rather boring city as residence in 2019? LOL…
As I’m not too much into viewing videos (most likely those have a suboptimal sound), I more listen to audince recordings. THere were three from the “tour” with Olaf Olsen. Amost same setlist. And…hey…nicely he fits in on the YAY! songs, but he’s not a psychedelic-jazzdrummer. So I realy look forward to seeing them in Oldenburg/Düsseldorf in a few daze.
I think with IngWILD, this could be the chance to open the doors of perception again and more.
To quote Johnny Heartfield:
“There were days and there were days between”The last fine Jerry Garcia song.I’m not posting too much here as I mainly concrentrate on my faveourite MP experience, taping with permission.
I know about the financial struggles between the countries, but both UK and Norway are not EC. All I remember from the last tour May 2022, the venues in Germany were only about half-full. Hamburg, Hannover (Spectes…only 150 people in such a small intimite location!), Bremen (all the stairs up weren’t occupied) and for my personal downer, even the majestic Bielefeld show wasn’t too crowded. War in East, Financial Crisis, Exploding Enegery prices, dear of unemployment. All that comprises into a surrealistic picture. Big Acts are sold out, no matter if they cost 250+€ or more.
And all the others?
Just got back from seeing Monster Magnet in Hannover. Just about 500, balcony was closed (I’m so pissed).
And they charged just 42€.
Motorpsycho took a bit less last year, but presented more value for money (the god of the 21st century)…As I’m listening to dear Lars recording, it’s “Überpilgrim”, and due to fact that I have no pics from this show, only listening, I think it’s without Reine.
The results of the Tysk-Norge Tapersyndicate will be up on Dime soon.Correction: Überpilgrim, Then “Home of the brave > Friend fried (freed) Putin”…Ups, sorry, Vladimir the Worst.
Howdy folks, great to read that there was a blast at Het Depot in Leuven.
Good to hear (smokesignals) that there will be an audience recording capture as well.Meanwhile…the new page looks “deserted”…bring in the green(er) again.
90 minutes curfew…sigh…lat time I experienced that at Burg Herzberg 2018. The show was cut shorter as the band before (some german languaged Hip-Hop crap) demanded 20+ minutes. A desaster for me, as I left the TUSMOERKE show on the other stage earlier to save a good view in front row. Brrrrr…
Festivals + MP? Maybe Krach am Bach, but that is a different story as well.
No, of(f) course, in fact Bielefeld didn't happen at all. All the vids on U-Tube or whatever are simply a fake. No, it was not to be in Bielefeld. The bus broke down and they got on for the next show. And those few ghosts living in the city of the chosen stood out there waiting for the spaceship
to materialise. Then around 20:30 the chosen ones were dematerialised into the void of golden delights. There will be a lot of fun coming soon, as the rays of the extraterrestrial viking ship did not disturb but also did help merging different "views" from different places.
And dare I say…after another safe space travel home and comfortable landing, the recordings were still there?! Little did I know, but they might have fixed something?
Let's see…or better hear…soon…
