A good arrival in Lokeren and a perfect parking place :notworthy:
That was a good start :-)
Further on a super sunny afternoon with a nice diner in the center of Lokeren.
And late in the evening this amazing concert.
Thank you for your company.

And now you go off to Romania for the last gig this summer.
Let it shine and have fun and a great gig !!!
Thank you! Fortunately, it's still two more days time to return my flat into normal after these
very long longed for, wonderful travels ... so that coming back from Sibiu, everything's fine ... :wink: ...

Oh and I just remembered - some trivia which shows how popular The Sisters are in Belgium:
at the Brussels Central train station, I wanted to inquire about a train to Lokeren and my conversation with the information officer looked more or less like this:
- Good morning, I would like to get to know what time the nearest direct train to Lokeren departs.
(takes a quick look at my ST Pauli ( :!: not even The Sisters' but St Pauli !) T-Shirt):
- Oh, Lokeren! :) Are you going to see The Sisters Of Mercy tomorrow? :)

- :eek: :? :D Yes, sir. Do you know who they are?
- Sure I do, I saw them once, they were brilliant. :D Your train leaves at 6.21 from platform 7, have a nice trip! :D


How cool is that, eh? 8) 8)

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

It may be a week ago now, but anyway, here are my impressions of the Lokeren gig:

Shortly I can say that I loved it. I really like that setlist and pretty much enjoyed Rain from Heaven, No time to cry and Logic. But Good things was not too bad, as well ;-). Not perfect, but worth it to have been there.

Von was in quite good mood and the meetings around good fun.

All in all an almost perfect gig :-)

Can anybody tell me what :von: hand gestures were about? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAi9WMD7wQY
and the "I don't think so, no" during Alice. The lyrics or something else?
