Great stuff, thank you
Many thanks for the extended review, Bartek ... ... and for all the things you brought to us over the past two days ... ... It makes me happy to see you enjoyed the concert so much... ...and great to see the band in best mood, getting ever more and ever better into their show, without any fog, and the sound finding its nuances, and the audience taking so much joy and pleasure in it... ... hell, watching all this here is almost as exciting as being there ... ... still, there's nothing like a real Sisters gig ... so maybe one day we might even meet at one of the them... ...Bartek wrote: ↑16 May 2022, 14:46 Few words from me.
So in terms of technicallity - the sound - i was lot more better than yesterday, at least where i was standing (2nd row more on Dylan's side), everything was in right place, audiable, loud, but not too much. No distortion of sound, mix was just superb, The Best ever for me.
Whole band enjoyed the gig very well. Von was in partuclar good mood, chatting with people, making comments, thanking (the most memorable was bowing in front of people with whom i was [well known to the band and here] after When I'm on fire, i guess maybe for singing loud chours part). I got a feeling that he stopped taking touring as stricly duty/chore. A nice change. He was really having fun, enjoying this. I've see how much fun he was having during instumental 86, all the smiles, in btween, thumb up during another song. The band, as it is, seems to be tighter than ever before, there's a great chmistry betwixt them and you can see and feel it.
The huge progress that Ben made is incerdible, he learned how to use something i call brifely air (pause, less guitar masturbation called solo with 10k and 1 tunes per 15 second - an oveload of tunes); Dylan makes not only good impression, but simply first to the band from the day one.
Particularly good from the new-new songs work well: when I'm on fire, here, eyes of Caligula and rock turned into diamond - black sail. It would be nice one day have a chance listen them well produced by E
AE as EP.
Because i was in the front, together with even bigger freaks (sorry in advance if enyone who feel offended by this term, no malice intention, I'm just jelous that you can follow the band to more gigs that i ) than i, we were having a good time and thus that's how i see this gig. But seriusly - i was looking around and people seemed to have good time, singing these half well-known songs, dancing, clapping, there was no voilent mosh-pit like the day before.
Because for me it was the last gig for this tour i can summarize my impressions and compare the these few times i got chance to see them im Polen since 2006: as for me the Best was my first - Kraków 10.06.2006 - not only because it was the second Best gift i made myself for the exact day of my b-day, but besause overall expirience, atmosphere, and feelings was and still is one of the most memorable gig ever for me; the yesterday was better in terms of sound, an icing was seeing how enjoyed this Von, thus the greatest mystery of gigs - Exchange of Chemistry betwitx the band and the crowd- and addition of meeting once again and some for the first time people from HL made in damn fine time - this on might even topped the Kraków 2006. The industry grovy machine is works like it wasn't in the last 16+ years. As I wrote 2019 restored my Faith to Th Band, but this one grew the faith even stronger.
Cannot wait to see them more, i wish to have more time and money to travel the band more often next tour.
Disclaimer: sorry for all typos, i've made my Best to catch them, but I'm writting this on my handy, on train, with autocorrection trying to find patterns in Polish.
I just watched the videos from Mr.Blonde and Ingo - nope, that wasn't for us.Planet Dave wrote: ↑16 May 2022, 15:50 I presume from your review Bartek that it was you bunch of freaks he was saying hello to at the start of Here, captured for prosperity by Ingo's awesome vid
