            Where is the setlist from Tønsberg, people? The only reports I've found so far is a Facebook-post that said "magic", and a blog that said "too many annoying air-guitarists". :-/

              Very approximate setlist:

              Close Your Eyes

              Leslie's Vest

              Whole Lotta Diana

              New song ("I can never go back…")

              Sail On

              Hallucifuge

              Year Zero

              Starhammer–>The Wheel

              Mountain–>Nothing to Say

              Kill Devil Hills

              The Alchemyst


              Gullible's Travails

              Main set lasted exactly 2 hrs, with a 20 minute encore.

              I have probably forgotten something, but with the exception of Mountain/The Wheel/Nothing to Say (and only the latter was played in its entirety) the set was entirely made up of songs from the last four records, plus the two new ones.

              Sound was great, playing was stellar, tighter than I've ever seen them, but I felt it was kind of cold and soulless last night. Super-heavy, but machine-like. Way too many similar stoner-prog songs with a predictable structure (drawn out in the middle, Snah noodling, Kenneth rattling on some drum, then BANG back to last verse). Last night showed only one facet of Motorpsycho.

                Thx for the setlist! But if I'm not mistaken, the new song with the "I can never go back" line is actually Leslie's Vest…

                First time in 9 years that Close Your Eyes was played live, how was it?

                  "Way too many … stoner-prog songs"

                  I don't think this is possible, actually :D

                    Thanks for the report! Should we make an individual thread for the concert? Rockefeller today!

                      Nice to see that they re-debuted "Close Your Eyes" for the Norwegian dates, your reports sound promising! Let's see how the sets and shows develop with the ongoing tour, I'd put my cents on some majestic finale in Trondheim ;-)
