The end of rock and beginning of art?
It would be great if someone was there on October 27th and 28th and could tell us if this performance was a concert or arts.
Just saw an insta story of a few seconds. They performed Azrael in this sequence and a guy danced along
They played Azrael (and maybe one more) and then a long version of NOX.
Incredible stuff.
The performance of the guy was on the other side rather ….
underwhelming?
Such contrast was maybe the intention.
Thanks mikke for the report. Can you remember if "Azrael" was "ny half lang" or "ny lang"?
I was there the 27th.
Pretty sure this is the "setlist":
Ny lang (Ancient Astronauts?) ->
Ny halvlang (Azrael?) ->
N.O.X.
About 80 minutes. No stopping between songs. Fairly wild middle part of NOX, almost all lights were turned off, Bent and Snah played on synths (?) and Tomas on gong! The entire performance also ended with Tomas hitting the gong
As for the dance, well, I'm not gonna pretend to understand contemporary dance, but to me it looked like Monty Python on LSD at best. My attention was on the music anyway…
Thank you Rolf for solving the riddle!! And thank you for the recording!
Oh greeat, thanks 😲ðŸ‘
Monthy Python on acid? Does that imply extremely funny walks?
Mind: for a ballet lover or expert it might be the other way round – an avantgarde dance performance with very strange musical background, performed by an absurdely under-manned progressive rock orchestra with limited vocal abilities
thank you suntripper for the link!

Just loved that.
Lol. Thinking of how MP heavily referenced Stravinsky's Rite of Spring in KoO press releases and such, have they cleverly also recreated it's rather hostile reception by a bewildered and confused audience struggling with the avantgarde?
