I arrived at the venue pretty late, towards the end of novembres set infact. First things first...I had to get a t-shirt. It took me while to decide what i would spend my hard earned cash on, but i reckon i made the right decision....Although the guy gave me the t shirt i didn want (he was probably thinking to himself while i was taking ages to decide 'hes gunna get the same one anyway').
Anyway, while briefly seeing novembre who were a fairly good support act, the tension was building as katatonia was about to hit the stage. Opening up with 'leaders' is a pretty wise choice, kicks in very quickly and to my surprise everyone started jumping around much to my surprise. I must say jonas' voice sets a wonderful atmosphere, something i was very skeptical about him pulling it off like he does on the albums, but he did it extremely well. Throughout the night there was some very good songs all flawlessly played, lovely lighting and atmosphere too. The setlist looked something like this.
(cant remember the order)
Leaders, Wealth, Ghost of the sun, Soils song, Deliberation,Tear Gas, Sleeper, My Twin, I am nothing, Sweet Nurse, July, In the White, Criminals, Tonights Music, Dead House, and Evidence... If i missed anything please point it out.
I well and truly appreciated this gig, been waiting a few years, but it was worth the wait definatley. (So many pretty girls too, one in particular..katatonia is definatley romantic music)
I was wearing a white (black sleeved) Paradise lost t shirt. What were other people here wearing? I also caught daniels drumstick heheheh.....
Over and out.
