The gig was outstanding!!!!!! From the first song on I felt like on a trip, better than any drug I've had so far.

Best version of Ribbons I've ever heard!!!!! And that was just the start.

Excellent sound quality, and you can hear they've got somebody else at the mixing desk, and you haven't heard the Sisters like that before.
Sound was clear, precise, minimalistic - stonking and different.

This gig alone was worth the trip to the States. And if you have the chance to see them anywhere near you, go for it, they're far better than 2006. They're like new.


Er... there's nothing more to say. Or yes, there is: No tour shirt. A new-ish hoodie with "Sisters" printed on the front in grey, a benie (kind of hat) with grey Sisters on front, a girlie "Utterly Bastard Groovy", Buttons! I think, that's it.

Need to go, I'm still high and want to enjoy it.

Oh, haven't seen Von in such a good mood for ages. Very talkative, and SMILING from ear to ear!

Over and out

Eva

thanks Eva
two times marian?

thanks! good news. did the crowd seem to enjoy?

Just one Marian. But she's back, and she's grown synthesizers.

The Sisters put on a fantastic, fantastic rock show. All the people I was with noticed Andrew smiling and making... eyebrow gestures at the audience the whole show. The band was full of energy and seemed to be having a great time. A great time was had by all. I was in the second row back from the stage for the whole thing, and it was glorious.

Really very happy for Train and Marian, can't wait to hear the mp3's

Bollocks to it, then - I'm not going to bother going.

Sounds like a Top Nite Out indeed - thanks for the heads up, Ms. Sockworth of Stripy - looking forward to seeing The Girls (and you lovely people of course!) a week tonight!!!

hey bastard - you doing any other show besides nyc?

Alas no, just the one. I've blown my vacation this year on wine and loose women, and can't get the time off

Did you get my post about the mic over on t'other thread?

The didn't play Still?? (IMHO the best of the new songs)

Let's hope we will hear it tomorrow in Toronto.

Train must have been awesome. When was the last time they played that one?

The reviews confirm what we said after the gig in Tienen, the band is back in top form with top key points:
- AE finding again his voice
- a good sound engineer (I hope they will keep him for the european dates)

Looking forward to a recording of the show.

No "Good Things" though and thanks to Dave.

Back home in Rochester... great trip!

Due to manual and perhaps technical difficulties... we have a partial recording.

Sorry Eva... I started to record, put the recorder in my pocket and pulled out the mic... so no Ribbons.

Also, lost Someting Fast while changing discs (they were quick!) and then may have f***ed up the whole last part by accidentally copy-protecting the disc... sorry, really my first time manning the rig!

We got an hour or so recorded... with luck you'll hear it!

P.S.: Where were you guys!?! Lost in the smoke!?

Good morning^^

Outstanding news - thank's for the first impressions, I'm looking forward to the recording whether it's complete or not.

Thanks for the quick reviews and pics!

The setlist is not the expected big surprise but I like it anyway. Great to see Romeo Down, Marian and Train again.

Looking forward to other reviews and DrG's recording.

Marian wasn't the obvious old song to come back.. so let's hope for more surprises the next days.. sounds like it was a great gig..
thank you for the quick reviews.. can't wait to hear a recording

Sounds amazing!
I'm psyched!
Thanks for sharing, Buffalo folk!!

Sounds like an awesome show

Nice to see Romeo Down back in there too.

Please be patient for the recording... I will need sleep and a trip to Radio Shack during the day in order to share.

Yeah... I need yet another audio chord... but it did sound decent in the car after the gig!

BTW -- I bought and t-shirt and a beanie! Utterly bastard groovy!

We all hope it will be a small sleep

Thank you for that one.

reminds me of the best motörhead gig i've ever been to! Anyway, A fast train to Marian is good enough to get drunk in Paradiso. And St. Pauli scored two times this sunday, is life finally fair?

Omg, Marian? this isn't played since 2003' eh?
i rly wish was there =(
anyway, i can't wait for listen this in mp3

(Train/Detonation Boulevard it's fantastic, but i was already happy with the 'new' doc jeep/D.Boulevard)

DrG: I was front row between Chris and Von (tall red head). And Don't worry about the recording, we've all goone through that (and still do from time to time)> Besides. There is a complete one, too. Don't know yet about the quality though. However, see you where? Look out for the tall red head that's the easiest...

forgot to tell you all: The original lighting is back!!! Especially for Summer, the correct order and all colours needed - blue, yellow and red, showing up at the perfect moment.

How much was the merchandise? A friend of mine will be at one of the US shows and I might ask him to buy me a shirt.
