Happy people

Nice, and even with a Sisters print ... ... what an exciting concert ... ....

Sound doesn't seem all that bad, either ....

Sound wasn't bad at all, there were parts when it get mesed up, AE vox missing in the mix, but plenty of bass, fat, and middle tones. 2019 was clean and crispy, while this got extra layer and it was accutally loud.

Damned autocorrection on my Phone.

Again a part of TOL and of Lucretia ... with the order changed as it seems

Looks like a great night...and a very happy audience

... and a very happy band as well ... ...

And with many thanks to Ingo and MrBlonde, (and Bartek for the setlist)
the page for this gig does also look quite alright now... ...

So, few words of my thoughts about this gig.

I was surprised how the sound impoved even comparing to the last tour. As I wrote: The Bass, so much that felt the Vibe on and in my body. The sound however wasn't consistently good throughout whole gig, there were parts when Von's vox was missing, keyboards gone, and was overall not-well-mixed and unaudiable. But tsking out that moaning form my side, ale i' ve been to their gig when sound was far far worst, this got every parts of sound scale: high, middle and low. And it was loud. So, taking TSOM standard it was very good. I'm not affraid to write it was the best because of all that layers and loudness.

Crowd reaction was as good as in 2006 or maybe even better, which made me wonder if it's not an effect of starvation caused by covid break, but that's another story. Anyhow, there were: dancing, singing along, clapping along (spontaniously and conducted), and voilent moshpit. Von and boys were impressed, and, judging from their faces, pleased. That was good exchange of the vibe and energy.

As for the new-new songs: as i was not convinced by the yt recording of DDOI, i wasn't live. We are here, Caligula, and When I'm on fire - that's as whole different story - are phenomenal and work fine live. I love they've re-arrange Black Sail, now it's a complete song.

Ben and Mr. Smith were aquantainced with people after the gig, Ben was chatting and taking pictures with everyone.

It was great to see some famiiar faces from here, put faces to the names, and see other who are appearing on the pictures.

See some of you in few hours in Warsaw.

Fantastic stuff, cheers Bartek for sharing your review and thoughts, and ta as ever to the usual suspects for the videos love the 'Leeds' intro they walked on stage to (so-called cos that's the last time I heard it). Great to see Black Sail played too, I couldn't fathom why they wouldn't be playing that gem. Glad everyone had a top night

Absolutely loving these recordings, Von's having a great time dispite some iffy troubles here and there. Here and when I'm on fire sound fantastic, and neverland is another highlight. Enjoying the return of some tasteful delay on the vocals on the new songs. Could be another thing Ravey is triggering, picking out specific words and phrases that need an echo.

I think Von's in love with Ben. Adoring the bromance, hope it's only one-sided because Bens hands are busy

Looking forward to the time he sings half the set sat atop Dylan's shoulders

So, today Andrew was hanging on shoulders of both (not at the same time ).

Here are a more videos of basically the whole show in this channel, filmed from a larger distance anot surely notthe clearest sound but giving a good impression allover ... ... nice to hear the bass sound has become more like a steady warm wave ... ... or maybe I got used to it ... ... well, no, just joking...

- Don't Drive On Ice, Ribbons, Thers's A Door
- I Will Call You - Alice (cut)
- But Genevieve
- Instrumental, Giving Ground, More
- Show Me, Eyes Of Caligula, I Was Wrong, When I'm On Fire, Here
- Never Land, Lucretia, My Reflection
- Temple Of Love, This Corrosion

... one can only agree, having these songs and versions properly recorded must be heaven ... there's such a great dynamics in them ... *sigh ...

Thanks for finding these! One can only hope for a tape. These new songs and performances seem to be improving

Yes indeed, cheers for the links Sabine

Thank you for the link Being 645

Nice it's hightime Ravey got his own bootleg front cover

I liked this one, and especially the crowd I found very much into it with even lots of people back at the walls dancing to some tunes! Unfortunately I arrived a bit late (Wroclaw centre is just too damn nice to hang around in!) but enjoyed a lot what I did see (Show Me-Caligula-Black Sail is an impressive trio).
It was nice to meet some "user names"!
I would love to catch a Scandinavian date as well but it's literally a fight against (lack of) time now. I couldn't be more happy with how the Sisters are sounding right now and about the setlist, it just needs some kind of studio product to complement it really, that's "all" I'm asking for

thanks to the recording its funny to see how persitent Andy can follow his canon-style-thats-my-rythm approach in More. Took the young men some effort to convince him, finally.
