[ThorEgil]

Tomorrow the boys will be playing for these adrenalin junkies. Probably not easy to impress.

The guy at 2:14 might like the Blissard songs.

[kjesso]

Reine Fiske joins them again tonight. Kick-off in ten minutes.

[kjesso]

The guy at 2:14 may have liked some Blissard songs, but he only got one. I think it went like this:

Year Zero

Hell

August

Vanishing Point

Ãœberwagner

Whip that ghost

Barleycorn

In the Family

Greener

Cornucupia/Go to California

Instrumental

You Lied

—

Hogwash

(1h55m)

Not the best Motorpsycho-show I've ever seen, but still very good. The catchy, snappy songs were better received; the jammy parts less so. For me, the highlights were Barleycorn, Greener and the instrumental they played before You Lied.

Reine Fiske is a great addition. I hope he remains with them for a long time.

[Juergen]

Thanks for posting the setlist. Is the instrumental the same instrumental which they played in Ã…lesund on June 14th? A recording can be found in the internet so I wonder if you knew this instrumental before and were able to recognize it.

[kjesso]

Juergen: I did not recognize the instrumental, nor have I heard the Ã…lesund show. Can I describe the song? It was a rather fast and energetic song, if I remember correctly. Other songs were also played at a furious speed, it almost seemed as if Bent had trouble keeping up during Whip that ghost.

[otherdemon]

Thanks for the setlist!

Couple of questions: Did Ãœberwagner include Pilgrim? And did Cornucopia include anything other than Go To California?

[kjesso]

I'm not sure what was included, but both songs were long, and at least Ãœberwagner included more than what I know from the record. Possibly The Pilgrim, possiblee something else.

This is just between you and me, of course, but I'm not familiar With COTF. Thus, it's hard to say whether there were more extras included than Go to California.

[otherdemon]

Did Ãœberwagner sound like this?

I think I'll pretend that I take my job seriously, and not watch that video in my Office. I'll try to watch it tonight.

[Juergen]

Thanks for the answer, by the way.

I hope you are not too tired being in an office a few hours after the concert.

[kjesso]

Oh, shut up. :twisted:

A review kulturguffen.blogspot.no

Seems like the adrenalin junkies were rather cowardish when it comes to musical challenges.

[kjesso]

otherdemon: yes, Ãœberwagner sounded like that.

Some other points the video reminded me of: The stage set-up was quite traditional, with Kenneth in the back, Reine on the left, Bent in the centre, and Snah on the right (as seen from the audience). Reine only played guitar; no mellotron this time. And the five lamps from the video were present also this time-

ThorEgil: Kulturguffen is me, by the way.

[ThorEgil]

Kjesso: Ah, that explains the declaration of worship in the 2nd paragraph of the review
