I was not at the concert but I read about rude security. One recorder which had been placed on stage (by a member of this forum) was confiscated.

[Johnny_Heartfield]

Can’t confirm rude security, but wasn’t at the front row.
Confiscating recording equipment is a stupid thing at a Motorpsycho show – what’s on stage is a matter of the band, not any location security. Hope the person in question gets it back.

Anyway: great show. Bent introduced it as a “Rock show”, setlist by Olaf. Well – you CAN call this a rock show, but for me it was everything motorpsychedelic at once – from heavy onslaught to westcoast jam noodling to rhythmic frenzy to spaced-out bliss (towards the end). Motorpsycho from tzar to tzar.

Security behaved like assholes in many ways outside of that. Plenty of annoying fucks in the crowd as well
Worst audience of the tour by far.

Show was good but partly ruined because of all this. I even left 15min before the end because I was fed up of the audience.

Recorder was handed back and no hard feelings left except the security was overacting. Audience was good in the front and enthusiastic (Bent even baptised Cologne with “You’re the best”). Great versions and jams in there. Sunchild was sweet ♥️

Tomcat, sad to hear that, as the recorders onstage did work wellboth in Hannover and Bielefeld. But maybe the location is an awful capitalistic shithouse. Hope some other tapers did succeed.
Glad you got your recorder back.
Still, that SUCKS!
As the band themselves are sooo taperfriendly.

[Johnny_Heartfield]

Yep – it’s a pity. The Cologne Jams were worth starting another “Roadwork” project. Let’s see, if some recording still appears, though.

[Juergen]

It was recorded and this recording which I have will be shared on dime. For those who are registered on other trackers (e. g. trader’s den or live archive.org) are welcome to share.

Has anyone recognized that neither Core Memory Corrupt nor Lucifer and no Stanley was played?
