A beautiful review for a totally amazing concert.
The only thing I want to add about this truly Once in a Lifetime Experience is the spectacular light show by Pekka Stokke. He lighted up the whole western wall above the organ. It was built around the large circular Rose window at the top of the wall and the organ pipes at the bottom, with individual illumination of each single organ pipe as well as the surrounding columns in the room. He made the window look like a pulsating lens and after a while the organ pipes started moving around. Indescribable.
He has worked with Motorpsycho before and published some of his things on Vimeo. I certainly hope he will do it this time as well.
Looking forward to the recording
The top 10 from Bent is published.
The Blissard review came today. MBTopp100
The first greedy cynical asshole has already turned up on that auction site. I wouldn't mind paying way too much for the record if the money ended up in the hands of the artists :MPD: but as that is not going to happen I wouldn't mind an inferior MP3 copy myself.
Tickets for the Orgelfest
The guys will play at Orgelfest in the Nidaros Cathedral with Ståle Storløkken on Nov. 2
Last time the played in the cathedral was a wedding in 94 according to Snah.
Since I will not be able to go to this gig – are there anyone, preferably in the Trondheim area, who might be willing to pick up an extra copy of the LP for me? (I'll buy the LP pickup ticket and mail it to you).
Thanks,

According to and ad in the Pstereo festival programme, the guys will play at Byscenen Trondheim on Dec 16.
It's in the middle of the most beautiful part of Norway. It would probably take you the better part of a day if you take a plane from Oslo to Mo i Rana or Bodø, and a boat from there. 3 days with car from Oslo, in tourist mode. Never been to this Island, but have passed it many times along the coastal higway. Truly spectacular.
And I guess it will be an out of the ordinary experience for Manu Chao as well
Several very interesting bands playing by the way.
Just for the hell of it – here's all my pictures from Steinkjerfestivalen. There are a few from the concert as well, and some video snippets too Picasa
The sound is really terrible and the recording stopped at times, the mobile phone is really not meant for this. But then there is a sound recording above. At least you get an impression of the terrific light show they put on
And Fillmore – please help yourself to anything you need.
Uhh – and I really wish I could go to Kongsberg on Saturday…
