Hehe, recently he seems to be back into the good old naughty mood, doesn't he.
But nobody is ever taking it seriously, of course. I mean, come on, why would anybody, it's all just for fun, right? well, erm..... yeah.

Looks beautiful. Thanks

@ DocSommer: Many thanks for the snippet - brings back memories...

@ Emma: He obviously likes to play, and he likes to see the silly grins in the audience...

@Spiggy: I doubt he perceives Schwiizerdütsch as a language - rather as a particularly nasty mental illness, and therefore wouldn't speak it, but you never know...

However, watching Ben and Chris during this tour again and again it crossed my mind what a wonderful job they do, and that the three of them are a whole now, a band in excellent shape (gastro-thingy permitting)...

wonderful video ... thanks

yeah I'm also quite impressed - vons voice has nice presence in the mix. That's not always matter of course when it comes to the last songs, esp. temple

I hope that nobody got caught during capturing audio and/or video because I feel the need to hear more from this show

OMG. I almost forgot how great this evening was...

(But I still can't accept one of the best guitar-riffs ever coming from the doctor. Why are they doing this?)

oh yes, very often one can hear rather the crowd singing than Andrew ...

But not here, and it also seems a bit of an unusual version to me ...

I really hope they're going to make a new cd ... or ...
but still there are a few gigs to be done ...

Eva wrote:@ Emma: He obviously likes to play, and he likes to see the silly grins in the audience...

Maybe it's better for him to keep playing and not realise what some of those grins try hard to conceal...

Mind you, he's not stupid....

Oh, really?
*faints*

I'm really beginning to wonder how - erm - certain members of this forum (yes, yes, I count myself amongst them) are going to survive the next however-long-til-another-tour. Although at least if you're on that side of the Atlantic he ventures out sporadically in between times; for those of us in the wastelands of the US, it's going to be truly awrful*.



*Not a typo...

like before, how, when, by who next album will be release, another thread about fashion disaster and other cow shyte

Oh come on, surviving till May 3rd is challenge enough. You know, if there isn't anything on the radio about a Warsaw-Beirut-Warsaw plane crash (and I have a feeling that most probably there won't be), I'll rip my heart out and give it to my cats for dinner before I bury myself in the hole near the compost heap.

Danke!

If you get the chance to listen to Romeo Down, do so. It was never one of my favourites, but it is now. The Zurich 09 version is truly haunting...

staff owes me a battery

This show was super, excellent, formidable, except security staff as usual

Shame I did not make it!

Thanks for the reviews!

Weed or vine?

This song is an evolving monster. I first realised it during one of the M'Era Lunas, and then in Krakow 2006 I was certain, and that was 3 years ago.

Back from Zurich.

It has been a great gig. That was an adequate compensation for the canceld gig in Budapest.

Great performance, good sound, great venue, great audience. What else can you ask for.

Greetings to Eva & Eggi, XRAY999, Cyberbio and Sistersekland! Has been nice to meet you! I still have to laugh when I have to think of the moment I met Sistersekland.

Oh, and I like the city. It looked quite cloudy when I arrived on Thursday but I was lucky with the weather. So I could explore the city and the lake on Friday and quite enjoyed it.

I almost missed my flight back to Germany though...: When I was in the city I found a shop with Swiss Army knifes. I owned such a knife as a child but somehow lost it. So it was the right time and place to buy me a new one. Some ten minutes before I wanted to check in at the airport I remembered the knife in my backpack which was my hand luggage - I had just forgotten to put in into the suitcase. My only chance to bring it home without trouble with the security was finding a stationery shop to buy a pen and an envelope and a post office to send it home by mail. Well, I managed but it required some fast sprints through the airport building...

Few impressions of my trip:
