Yeah... I'm so tired right now ;D

We got 2 very good gigs and the two combined sum up pretty much the entire live set they do these days I guess... For me the first night had the best setlist with Floorshow, Logic & all , but the guitars were louder the second one :lol:

One of the best 'mental pics' I have is the sight of Simon D. with his old school cowboy hat behind the good doctor. Mr D is the coolest Sister in my book ;D :notworthy:

I was under the impression that Eldritch was holding back at times last night and that for instance On The Wire lacked a bit of intesity because of that, but at other times he really blew everybody away (Vision Thing! Romeo Down!).

Highlights yesterday were a stunning version of Falaa, Romeo Down, Lucretia and best of all the first encore round with I Was Wrong back to back with Vision Thing: the rough with the smooth. Very impressive :notworthy:

Have fun in Amsterdam tonight, peepz!

Next stop: Köln :D

Ooh... superb sound! Good work, dude :D :notworthy:

It's comforting to know there are some excellent recordings from the second night around! I think I'm gonna search for my traders-cap... ;D :innocent:
I do hope the first Brussels gig surfaces too, because that's the one I liked best...

Hello,

Like always I was at post for the 2 gigs in Belgium ... I was surprised to hear songs I haven't heared for some time like floorshow ...

I was trilled 2 times ... but the second night was a little better then the first ... more intensity from Andrew ;-)

I'm thinking the same thing :lol:

I guess it's the same as a nurse in a hospital. They're surrounded by loads of medical equipment, but don't need it all at the same time. Perhaps there's a heart-lung machine in there the revive Von at the end of a gig :?:

Now, I don't know much about music technology in itself, but those zillions of long cables around Nurse look like a paradise for signal interference, don't they :?

I'm sure all those racks could be brought back to one notebook, but the problem is that our nurse can't hide behind it anymore ...

On a serious level I guess they love the vintage equipment (like the Akai sampler, the Oberheims, the Drawmer gates, the sequencers etcetera), which looks much better than one computer on stage... It doesn't necessarily sound better, but it gives some strong visuals to the Doc.

As always, just type "sisters of mercy" (yes without THE) and sort by date and you get it all. Beautiful video of I was wrong by the way.

Thanks for the pics!

Better than the first concert, except they didn't play Logic (i hope it will get back in the setlist soon).
Strong version of Flood II, I Was Wrong and FALAA - if my memories serves me right. :)
