In my opinion the scabs are the most borin band on earth. They have to win the "boooooring award". Mostly the Song structure was: REF/STROPHE/REF/REF/REF/REF/REF/REF/REF/REF, wasn't it? Boooooooring!

Almost everything is boring if you wait for something special

You were clearly watching a different set to everyone else, then.

Nope, maybe they play their kind of music well, I didn't pay that much attention. I was questioning what kind of gig it was when I saw the hyperactive ape that sings.

Let's face it only about 8 people clapped them off.

I loved the set as well C.

I liked them as well, the Scabs are your average rock'n'roll oldies, ideal for a warm festival evening somewhere nice, holding a beer and smiling. Although the 'Robbing a Liquor Store'- Long Version was sooo rock-cliché it almost made me gag (left vs right? That's sooo Neil Diamond!)...

IZ.

either you like them or you don't I guess. You have to see them as a big act in Belgium in the 90's. So for many people it's a nostalgic thing hearing those songs after so many years being performed by the band.

It's a bit like reliving the past.. nothing more.. mothing less. Maybe the singing from left to right was a bit over the top but the crowd enjoyed it and went along with it.

And again... being a band before the sister is maybe a hard job. Did you noticed that he actually shouted to "enjoy the sisters of mercy". So that was a real sport. He must have known that he was like supporting act for them

Nah, that's Radiohead.

it looks that the sisters are going closer to slayer with all that support acts. nobody wants to play before slayer because their fans are a little orthodox

Back in 1992 Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds were playing the slot before The Sisters and I have to admit: I was so excited for what was coming later on that I wasn't very interested in Cave. Unbelievable, I know
The Sisters did play a brilliant gig that night

It's a high that won't go away for a while Elise! Trust me! By the way, where were you standing during the gig?

Thanks to all the YouTube recordings and audio, you didn't let us down people and thanks to you that gig can be viewed over and over again and so the high returns!

Hey ~MB~ !
I was standing front row left center ( in front of Ben )
A pity we didn't see each other this year .. well , may be next year ,
hope will make it a habit doing a gig in Belgium every summer !

There's some really nice clips of this gig on youtube yeah , with quite a good sound quality as well ,
thanks to all the people who've put it up there !

O.K. must have been a good spot , you've made a pretty good recording of all ' the Good Things ' overthere dtsom

There's already a cd of the gig on ebay.

Diego, you were somewhere behind me. I was also in front of Ben, but first row.

I didn't had time to see the videos until now, but now that I saw them... whoa.

whoa.

This kicks f**** b****. Awesome.

See now, Neil Diamond I like....

Before you know you'll love the Scabs then

Aye, and Von'll have released a new record which will shoot straight to number one in 27 countries. I think we're entering the realms of gross improbability now, don't you?

Well …

Hiya!
I was standing centre in front but on the right side of that barricade ( was standing straight in front of me most of the numbers) I am one lucky lucky lady! I was looking out for you so next time lets hope we do see each other, and Belgium sounds like a mighty fine idea!

Oh yes.... I'll be the mad spinster "auntie" neighbour who has no children, several cats, lots of weird old jewellery and comes to visit every now and then to have a drink and spread the tarot, may I?

Of course my dear! You are always welcome to visit and show us your insight! We can go tips of funky stockings and what-not's...
...missed you this time dear _emma_ but I'm always of hope of a next time! I'll hold you to that drink and tarot!

Better late than never...

Bloody hell what a gig! Now that was the last thing I was expecting, but hats off to and the incomparable Mr Catalyst (we'll tactfully brush over the 'noises' coming from far side of the stage). Great gig, great company, and outstanding nighttime sesh in Louie's garden.

So, Stage X of the Masterplan is clear to all. A gig a year in Belgium will do all parties very nicely indeed I think.

Oh and the Glitter Band cover is pure thumping Sisters at their finest, just as it was in 2001, but the jaw-drop factor was considerably greater this time round.
