Woah! What a final. Grace, Space and Glory! Onwards the NordseeSonata I would've been
in complete lost control. HAMSTER/WHEEL/GOLD… Fucking awesome. Thought they burned all
their fuel the day before in Hengehigh, but sometimes the light is all shining on you,
sometimes you can barely see (or think). (Quote Robert Hunter).
SO FAR AWAY IN OUTER SPACE…
Just to pick out the three monsters of this show…
Mountain – massive as usual but far out into GratefulDeadJamSpace… Woah!
Tower – I'm usually bored about that song, but on this tour with the "new" kraut/freejazz
jamming – I'm in again. Awesome!!!!!
Wheel – Surrealistic pillow. Nothing (more) to say. My forehead into the dust(or mud).
That was more at least me deserved to get. Pure joy.
Funny note…as I've seen "only" Bremen, Frankfurt and Hengelo on that tour:
Crucible opener and Fools Gold closer on all shows. And no Y0 for me. Grrrrrrrr……
(But that is just complaining on highest level. Tusen takk @ MP and their crew. You know)
Listening to a dear friend's tape…A bit of soundproblems as there was in Bremen.
On the musical side of my brain…Ok, I'm already sold with Y0, but these jams in Jig –
the most beautiful extended August and the Allman Brothers tribute – fucking shit I missed
that gig! Up/Down – cool choice to calm down, I love that. The 3Spin had also a long jam,
Mountain was as massive as you could wish. And…no words about Fools Gold. Sssssshhhhht!
Well, arrived home after a 150 min. drive home through constant piss rain (same as it was
in 2017 and same length as the show was, btw) I feel a bit mixed emotions about the show.
First: The band and especially Bent had serious sound/equipment problems which led to at
least two mishaps during Ãœberpilgrim and You lied where they went completely out of sync
and it took some time to find the groove again. Second: The sound during the first 3 songs
was way too low (volume). Hmmm…unusual for Schlachthof. But that's complaining on highest
level, as there were many good things to tell.
Big thanks to the band for support/permission to tape. I love it when things work that way.
Oh, and the music? Song for a Bro surprised me very much. Very Allman-Style, you guess.
Tower with the free-jazzy jam put the real smile on my face (you know, I love weird
norwegian jazz). But the real corker was probably the best NORDSEE SONATA I've heard so
far.What a beautiful jam! No Evil was a nice surprise, Hog on the list (but not played)
but I'm always sold with Fools gold. A perfect way to end a "Rumpeldipumpel" evening.
Acoustic evidence for free as usual.
Spielkarte? Eller Setlist?
Tusen takk to the members here keeping me informed.
Looking forward to the "official album" they will do from that nice weirdness.
Fine Audience recording (the usual suspect) is up on Dime. "Feel" free to share/spread
(but only lossless, please!). Enjoy! Fabulous MOUNTAIN! (or better: MASSIVE MOUNTAIN!)
@ Phoots Flower: Any chance for me to use your recording for a Dime Travel?
Plase contact me at spacebandit@web.de Thank you!!!
For sure…the acoustic set (did they ever play that Spirit song before?) was amazing,
but the electric set… into what spaces did they travel during Trigger and Tower?
Far out stuff…just exactly perfect (at least for me).
indeed, a very fine setlist. will have a listen soon.
And yes…hoooooooooooooooooooghwaaaaaaaaaash! And more…
You Liiiiiiiied! Woah! Maybe they skip Promise/The other fool in favour of SUPISTOOGE?
Then it would be almost perfect.
…Nature's ways…only got that one "live" some almost 30 years ago when SPIRIT
hit the Hyde Park in Osnabrück. Great choice for telling people that there's something wrong
about nature and the stupitidy of mankind.
I think the boys never fail to surprise. I remember my jaw dropping last december @
Dornroosje Nijmegen when they started "Hogwash" out of the blue. Or tears in my eyes
during my first ever "Wheel" in Hamburg a year before.
Here it was the return of the Ãœberpilgrim, in Haugesund mot likely Der Alchemist. Still a
month wait until I can join in the fun at Markthalle. Brrrrr…(the sound of shattering
hoofs…)
Very nice setlist, all of the songs from the new album were played. Starhamster is
always welcome, even more if they went into a space jam. The Other fool…or the other
other fool? That one from Roadworks #1 is…forever in my top10 songs of them.
I think the combination of Ãœberwagner and Wishbone Ash's "Pilgrim" worked very well a few
years ago. Superb guitar notes exchanges between Snah and Reine.
Still some six weeks to wait until Hamburg.
