Heartland

is that better?

i have a piece of alcatraz in my bedroom, but its from the SF one.

i don't think it's big enough for the band *and* the crew to all stand on though.



still trying to work out how to make reservations for trains abroad from here with my inter rail pass.

seems its almost impossible to do online.

the modern world is rubbish.

might end up going to Milan on the 12th, knowing it should be "only" about 4,5 drive from here...

anyone coming to that show?

Any reviews? Anything at all?

couldn't make it...

it seems that the set list was the same one as Florenze show so:

Crash and Burn
Ribbons
Dr. Jeep/Detonation Blvd
When you don't see me
Flood 1
Suzanne
Giving Ground
Summer
Dominion
Slept
Alice
Anaconda
Romeo Down
I was Wrong
This Corrosion

Something Fast
Lucretia

Top nite out
Temple of love

I'm not happy that Never Land (a fragment) has been dropped

I can over look the opinions, but what about the allegations?

the Sisters are too good for their own good :/

Complete and utter pish. Last night`s gig sounded fine to me. The crowd however took a long time to wake up - it took This Corrosion to shake things up. If your friend`s friend had cleaned out his ears, he would have noticed Chris & Ben playing (including Ben`s guitar solos and bass playing) and Eldritch`s live vocal, despite his voice being a bit strained. He`s avoiding higher notes just now, presumeably because of this but in my opinion that hasn`t done any harm to the performances I`ve seen.

Yours was the first name I mentioned to him when I got the e-mail, I've copied and pasted your reply

I do have some sympathy with some of the people claiming it's all mimed (they're still idiots, of course) if only because too many (I think!) of the guitar parts are duplicated as synth lines and spewed out by the Doktor...
I guess I'll see for myself tomorrow night, keeping my fingers crossed for a decent gig.

What can we do ? They've been around forever and probably always will be.

what a revelation
did he expect them play live or what

And the newer songs are taken from even earlier recordings!
