2hrs.20min. From what I got to listen is…
Much better than the Hamar show. The taper and company said that the Boys might've read
my review on the Hamar slomo trip. Anyway, here's MP at full sail, with that wonderful
45 min. Opener (I like things like that as in Bremen 2017 with that 1 hour Unchain>Ship
pasaage). The band is very tight, nails (most of) the vocals and surprises with that
quadruple bang at the end of the main set. As you know, I always dig a Starhamster and
You lied is a classic. The x-tra encore is a real treat. Well done, my friends.
Oh, btw: Only 40 people in attendence: I think of emptying my livingroom for a private
show on February 31st next year. Might tear the house down but that'll be ok with me.
B4 you ask: No, I didn't smoke anything now… :smoke:
@ Punj Lizard: Yes, Temple Fang are great. They would've played Alterna Sounds in
my old hometown Muenster (Germany) last April, but are rescheduled for next year.
Colour Haze – good friends of mine. My sole "Corona-time" show was their concert in
Dortmund late September. Outdoors, fucking cold, but the band graced us with a
marvellous show @ full moon. Way cool. Unfortunately no long chats with Stefan and
Philipp as usual…
Oh, I'm late for this…ok, how I can I oblige to the rules…
maybe…
TEMPLE FANG – Live at Merelyn (Jam Stoner/Heavy Psych from Amsterdam!)
Just a few notes from my listening experience today morning…
"Ship" starts very slow, like the band on slo-mo or valium? Luckily it picks up some
speed during midsong sequence. The trilogy backwards of the title-tracks from the last
three albums were nicely played, but nothing too sensational. A occasional vocal miscue
here and there. N.O.X. is something different. As I still have some mixed feelings about
the "All is one" album, this is the one I really dig. Maybe because I'm a Deadhead and I
love spaced-out extended plays. "Like Chrome" is nothing but short "let's get outa here".
Due to curfew at 23:00, this show was shorter and the absence of Reine (who adds a lot of
colour) is remarkably evident. Maybe they tried it, but on a trio format I'd better go
out on a solid MotorROCKshow.
Judge yourself in a few hours at the usual place.
So, if it is confirmed that the band did agree Tony Reed doing this, it's ok and
I'll take back every assault from my former mail.
But I'm very dissapointed to see just a snippet of the show. Why no 2-3 LP set?
Too expensive? And, ok, in the US of A – nobody really knows them except for some
psychonautic explorers. Anyway, I'm still rather sucked about this "release".
Set it free for all. Even a vinyl rip would do, as I already see that bumping up on
ebay or other sellers for a horrible price.
i'm constantly told i look way younger than 51, so, yes… science fact!
me 51, too, so we're older farts than the bandmembers!
Hmmm, I wonder why it's not released on Rockfreaks records…I asked Jens from FVF for
the soundboard to mix it with my audience recording (which is most likely the bootleg
offered) but he declined to give it to me. So, if I don't get it, why should an unknown
american get it??? FINGER WEG! And – fucking shit! My recordings are ALWAYS for free.
That shit seriously damages my good stand as a reliable taper!
Pfui, schämt Euch ihr geldgeilen Arschlöcher!!!
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!!!
