Although I have seen Motorpsycho play more than once a year this was the first time I saw them play two days in a row. And how lucky I am, in Amsterdam they played 12 (!) songs they didn’t play in Groningen.
While both gigs where incredible I think I prefer the Amsterdam gig. The venue, the atmosphere, talking to some new and some longtime fans, really really nice.
The one song that literally made me cry last night was My Best Friend. Such an amazing surprise! Beautifully done with an awesome jam in the middle.
I was also very pleased with Kill Some Day, Quick Fix (which they skipped in Groningen) and Neotzar.
Olaf was amazing both nights. Fun to watch. Very different from earlier drummers but very fitting imo.
They just announced on Instagram that they are selling the Neigh! cd at the merch table. Remaining copies will be sold at the MP stores after the tour.
Wow that footage is incredible!
Some thoughts:
– The person who filmed this (thank you! This is so awesome!( was in the from of the stage on the left, so lots of Snah and Olaf and not so much of Bent and Reine.
– Snah is really, really in to it! All the time! He seems in the zone all of the time and really having fun.
– Reine seems to be singing quite a lot. I don’t hear it very good in the mix though. His role in MP live gets bigger and bigger. It really is a shame imo that there still is no Roadwork with him on it.
– I really like Olafs drumming. Quite straightforward but subtle and really jazzy at times.
– The double keys played by Reine and Snah is very cool.

PsychotzarThere are some really nice snippets of the gig on Instagram. Nice that they are plying Sentinels again, love how they interpret the song live.
I I look at the videos Verkstedhallen looks quite big, a lot bigger than Vera for instance. What capacity does it have?
