Another highlight occured before the guys went on stage, when the music of obscure norwegian jazz rock band Min Bul (with Terje Rypdal on guitar AND soprano sax!) was plasting over the speakers! http://youtu.be/i1ekCYgHZzU
Yep. At the beginning of Serpentine, and after the chorus of the same song. More drony than the original. Mind you: this was when the audience's chattery was at it's loudest.
Bold move to open with Gullible (a magnificent version!!), and with that opening you could expect psychedelia heaven, but it was not to be. I wouldn't call the "hit parade" a negative thing. It was great to see the guys embrace the old material and play around with it. Altso lovely not to hear Year Zero, Kill Devil Hills etc, that they've played so often the last couple of years. The merging of Coventry Boy and Serpentine was a special highlight. Great night, kinda like a Veita Scene-gig anno 1997!
