Tel Aviv, Israel, may 4 2009!?

Scardwel · 04 May 2009, 23:35

Absolutely stunning gig, one of the best I've seen on this tour - right up there with Berlin & Helsinki. Venue was packed to the rafters with everyone going mental and singing along. Many people seemed to know all the "new" songs (even Arms) such is the power of the internet I suppose. Sound was perfect, with both guitars and vocals clearly audible (a rarity). Von was in fine form, giving it all with plenty of twists, turns and howls.
Right at the end all four (inc Nurse) came to the front of the stage and took a bow. A very cool moment.

That concludes my Sisters gigage for now. Let's hope some summer festivals are in the pipeline.

Oh and it was the usual setlist.

Wow, great photos and great review. So much for the 'Did Von quite smoking' thread, since there is your prove.

Waiting for more photos and highlights from the show.

@eastmids whizzkid-me,too-no sisters 98 to 09.thought I was the only one.

Should add that Von's hoodie is a total geek alert, an older and rare OpenBsd Hoodie, the "Wireframe Puffy" design. Black Hoodie has been out of print for awhile now.

You lucky people!
Where is that emoticon where you bang your head against a wall?

Should have gone to this one instead of Stockholm and Leeds. Well at least instead of Stockholm.

eastmidswhizzkid: You see, I also feel strongest about the concerts I did *not* see

I'm almost certain they will return to Tel Aviv with this response though, and then I'll be there.

I think, it's been the right time for the Sisters to play in Israel ...

Wow - fantastic pics and great review! A meet n greet? When's the last time he did one of those? Happy to hear it was such a great show for all of you that were able to make it, I envy you!
