Andy & the boys were way too speedy for our liking and we failed to singalong to all those 'new' songs... We walked away halfway :eek:
The shared Susanne from that site was recorded there. Not bad IMO.
Nevertheless it certainly was different from the 1992 show. I loved the gig mainly for that reason you mention because it was the first time I could see them perform the new songs. But hey....I seem to like all their gigs. :D
When I listen to the Pukkelpop bootleg today, I think it's pretty good actually :innocent: :lol:
But back then I wanted to hear a Sisters show. Like I had seen them before you know... And suddenly there was little left as they updated the sound & songs and... it was a major dissapointment for me. (Mind you, it wasn't the first time I heared the new songs. Back in 98 they played most of them already)
I figured The sisters were over for me... but a couple years later I found myself digging up my old Sisters bootlegs and listened to them on a daily basis. Then came the 2005 tour and the Heartland membership and since then there's no way back anymore. I just had to let the old Sisters go, let loose that goose. Accept that they've evolved in some way... I can always play some 83-dvd's or Wake, but I don't expect that stuff to be played on a stage near me anymore. I have finally moved on with them Schwesters ;D Love 'm :notworthy:

Belga Beach: setting was -to say the least- original. Weather was nice. I enjoyed myself a lot. But the show was bad, very bad. :innocent:

No smoke, bad sound (too much wind?), too short, no lights, ...

The sound seems to be fine on DVD. I agree with the lenght which is probably not their fault. No smoke indeed... :lol:

Hey, they played around 4 or 5 in the afternoon... it wouldn't have made sense to turn the lights on, now would it?! :wink:
And it was very windy that day (of course it was windy, the stage was right there on the beach!) and that does strange things to sound & smoke.
Where I was standing (very much in front) sound was ace and they rocked big time!
I wouldn't have missed it for anything in the world! All my opinion of course ;D :lol:

This list is Best - Worst show I'VE seen, no? ;D

When I need to make a list of the 21 shows I saw, it will be ranked last.
Way last. With quite a gap between number 20 and 21 ;D

So, maybe I have been very lucky to see 20 shows that were better then this one. With all do respect, Mr Von is not the person to be seen in daylight :innocent:
