Thanks guys
I was in Hamburg earlier this week so I might just skip it to do some tourist stuff in other cities in between shows.
The Hannover – Bielefeld – Cologne could be a good run, especially if I manage to do the 2 Belgian dates before.fellow German psychonauts, I’m considering doing 2 or 3 dates in Germany for this tour. What would be the easiest/smoothest set of dates if travelling by train?
Apr 25. 2025 Columbia Theater Berlin Germany
Apr 26. 2025 Markthalle Hamburg GermanyMay 04. 2025 Faust Hannover Germany
May 05. 2025 Forum Bielefeld Germany
May 06. 2025 Gloria Theater Cologne Germany
May 07. 2025 Jazzhaus Freiburg GermanyMay 15. 2025 Manufaktur Schorndorf Germany
May 16. 2025 BeatPol Dresden Germany
May 17. 2025 Schlachthof Bremen Germany@Juergen I don’t think so, only me hoping Finland dates would be added without truly believing in it.
Looks like there’s a new Needlepoint album coming out in 2 days

Pretty hardcore to find any news or distribution outside Norway for now. Hopefully it will be available more widely soon.
“If a chef at a restaurant fired all his staff, I would still expect the same quality of food if im still paying the full price.”
That’s where our expectations differ I guess. If the chef is temporarily going through some rougher times, I would not go full-on Karen mode because of one slightly less tasty meal than usual, especially after 3 decades of enjoying the same restaurant.
It is sure sad having a crappy sound vinyl but I would cut some slack to the guys having to deal themselves with all the challenges of launching a label and all the problems around vinyl manufacturing nowadays (I run a label myself, it ain’t fun and easy).
In the end, I’ll see Yay and Neigh as a special time in the band’s massive history and would not care much about the vinyl quality of one specific little outtakes record.

Been keeping an attentive ear to your music and watched a few times your live stuff on YouTube. Impressive stuff. Looking forward to a proper EP or LP.Second listen and I don’t think it is a bad album at all. Sure it’s a bunch of outtakes, but it’s more in line with the traditional MP than Yay!, which didn’t do much for me.
“Return to Sanity” is the only song I don’t click with, but many others are very good and could work well live.
If these songs were released on 2 EP in between Kingdom of Oblivion and Ancient Astronaut, that would have been very cool as well.
That random date in Gothenburg makes me hope for a date in Stockholm, or even better somewhere in Finland.
I can be happy with an album of weird noisy outtakes.
“Yay!” didn’t do much for me but I remember being somehow disappointed by “Phanerothyme” back in the day, and it’s an album I go back to the most.
