Essence of Progression Tour 2009 - Post Your Pictures, Videos, Reviews Here

Best of luck and skill to the band for the tour - it starts tomorrow!!!:headbang:

We've mentioned that we will be announcing some fan based galleries to be added to the Beyond MySpace pages and this looks like as good a time as any to announce the first one.

Having seen the previous posts from users of this forum, it seems likely that loads of pictures will be appearing soon. But if there are a few you want to share with a wider audience then email them to the address in the signature. We would like to get a real mix - so all band members represented if possible and especially anything a bit different.

If you do send something then let us know where it is from (i.e. venue) and let us know your name (or user name)

i will probably just upload them on my photosite, but you are allowed to take them from there.
 
I do have plenty of such pics, but from previous tours - keep that in mind for the second gallery! :p

Will do! (although probably not the second one!)

Thanks! If anyone would like to offer a similar "permission" then post somewhere on the forum (perhaps when you announce your pictures) or email us. We don't intend to use anything without permission as we appreciate that such things are often personal to the owner.
 
Hello party people!

I just came home from Essen. The show last night was absolutely brilliant! The Zeche Carl is a nice venue and there was a fair amount of enthusiast people there. I was very happy to see that they had new but actually old merchandise. Bought a very cool "Hypothetical" hoodie! And they also have one from "Wounded land".
The band had some technical problems, especially in the beginning, but to me it all sounded and looked great. There's a big videoscreen at the back on which they show all kinds of clips and bits and pieces. Anyway, I'm not very good at reviewing gigs, so I'll leave that up to the professionals :) But this was the setlist:

Consume to live
Fighting for breath
Stop dead
Part of the chaos
Avalon
One degree down
Critical mass
Smile at the moon
Art of reason
Long way home
Pilot in the sky of dreams
Slipstream

Encores:
Mission profile
Paradox

Well pleased with the songs they played!! I'm very much looking forward to go to Verviers and Zoetermeer.
Thanks guys, for a wonderful show and the tour around the tourbus. I hope you will all get along fine this week ;-)

Sounds like a totally new setlist, it's weird to see there's no Light And Space, but it's great to see songs never played live such as Avalo, Critical Mass, Stop Dead or Fighting For Breath!
 
Woah, awesome setlist indeed! Looking forward to the Zoetermeer gig, bigtime!

We should definitely do a meet-up beforehand! Or at least have a beer together at the café before they open the doors!
 
Four night shifts to go 'til Zoetermeer!!!

Definitely up for a quiet beer (and maybe a couple of noisy ones)

I'm staying at the NH hotel near the station so would have to be guided by those with specialist knowledge - planning to get to Z about 1630/1700 and then going to have a nose about the venue as it's only a mile and a bit away. Happy to try and attend anything anywhere!

Set list looks very interesting
 
Hi there!
I will travel from FrankfurtMain, Germany to Verviers, Belgium just to see the guys one more time. I Have 2 places in my car left. If anyone is interested, please contact me: cornelia.koepnick at web.de

The show in Aschaffenburg was so amazing!
 
This is the first time since I've been attending Threshold gigs where I've seen some kind of stage show going on, other than the guys performing on stage. Loving the back drop and how the split T is being used. Is it a screen on which videos are played or stills?
 
Nice pics Astrid! Thanks for sharing!

Is it me, or does Damian look particularly tired during the gig (ie. a lack of sleep due to touring kinda tired)?
