NEW ALBUM FINISHED AND EUROPEAN LIVE DATES CONFIRMED

[Elvina]

Thanks for those videos, the quality is quite good! I wish I could have gone, damn obligations.

well, we spent the night at Leeuwarden train station as the first train was at 6:36 next morning talk about crazy fans... i think i got a cold but oh well, it was fckin worth it!!! wish i could go to the gig in Germany tonight, too...

 

[Allfader]

Elvina, you rock; I almost fell in love

The quality is incredible for a photo camera!. Everyone sounds very solid, specially Mr V. This seems to be his best live performance ever... damn, even Colossus sounds terrific!!!!!!

This show should be released on dvd with a good audio/video editing. The setlist was perfect, even a song from the S/T!!! I wanna see a video from it!!!

Since they played it, there is a chance of playing Vintervredets Sjelesagn on the future? I hope so.

Edit: Erik, your bass sounds godly and your performance was extremely solid!!

Please, record the next shows professionally!!

i'm without words.
the videos are amazing! it sometimes happens with compact cameras, that they do better videos than photos, also the previous one i had behaved that way!

i'm really touched and moved.
i think i would have cried if i was there, i'm hardly holding back one tear and i'm here in front of a pc screen

thank you elvina for sharing this with us! ( i should say the less fortunate ones )

Thank you very much for the videos. I love the happy/friendly/slow-motion mosh pit during Colossus.

Amazing stuff. I wish I was there. Great performance, guys.

I hear ya, when Andreas jumped into the crowd near the end of the concert, I think during it was that beautiful part in The Dawn of the End, I couldn't help but shedding a tear of joy or two when he clapped me on the shoulder

Fuck, is it possible to buy that shirt anywhere? I'm guessing that is the same one they threw out at Wacken? With the dragons on the front?

Yep, with the dragon logo on the front.

 

[ShadarLogoth]

fucking amazing, i think these vids end the questions on mr. v's live abilities.
im so jealous to not have been at this show.

 

[Undefined]

Awesome videos, I can only hope this gave you guys a taste of having fun at a show and maybe you'll cross the ocean and do a small tour for us fans in Canada.

 

[Allfader]

fucking amazing, i think these vids end the questions on mr. v's live abilities.

Totally agree. His Colossus version is the most epic thing i've heard live from him ever.

*hugs* i've been sitting at the cold train station later that night watching the vids and pics i've taken and i was crying myself! it was so fckin special! i am so happy i could be there...

i'm glad you enjoy watching it too guys, thnx for thumbs up!

I'm more than sure that the band loved to play live on tour too, i just hope they will do it a bit more often than once in 7 years......

 

[AnTz0r]

great show! thanks guys!

indeed vocals were really low in the beginning and were turned up later, but somehow because of it the band mix seemed to get a bit worse. and the piano intro for the genuine pulse seemed to distort, i guess because its output is louder than the usual sound it clips somewhere in the signal chain. apart from these issues, the sound was quite okay i think for a metal concert (can't count the amount of concerts that got lost in a flurry of sound), all instruments clearly audible. great job from tyr too, glad even bass came through really well well... bass? fretloos vliegdekschip is more like it, for the other dutch out there

 

[Gaunerin]

Thanks for posting those videos. Amazing quality indeed.
I only own a simple snapshot cam so I cannot offer great pics, still here's a few from last night. Apart from those I'll leave the field to ppl with proper cameras
I believe the festival already started at 13.30 and Bork's gig was delayed by about half an hour or so which means they started around 23.45 or maybe even a later. That was probably too much for some, many had already left when the guys started playing
I was at first watching down from some gallery/balcony kind of thing but I just couldn't be so far away from the action and so I went to the stage already during the second song. If I'm not totally wrong the setlist was the same as already posted and Andreas truly unleashed the beast within (I've seen you quite a few times already but not like that! ) Was great to see you guys again!

I can confirm this! The show was really great, probably the best show i´ve seen in my whole life! It was sooo Great
Really bad for them, that half of the crowd left after "the great Equilibrium" left the stage. At first, it was a pretty silent crowd at all, which became louder and louder during the set (a personal impression, don`t blame me , if i`m wrong ).


I went off, pretty happy; made some cool Pics, made 2 videos ("Oceans Rise" and "Ad Noctum". I will upload, if i´m able to handle this pretty bad sound), met 5 Members in the Foyer and took pictures, got the setlist, got all my booklets sign by all members and cought Dave`s drum stick! I guess, i´m the happiest Motherf****r in Town! ;-)

Here some pics i made:

Unfortunatly not many, and those i made were of poor quality, of Jens and Erik...

ahaha in the colossus video, when the camera is on the audience, i think i've seen one of the forummers ( he's mostly on Vintersorg forum), who is Mark, i'm pretty sure he is him, his nick is Windvang

 

[Elvina]

ok here are my crappy photos taken during and after the gig on sept 25... hope ppl who made some great clean professional shots from the gigs will share with us soon...

the rest can be found here

Yeah...when you get up on stage you kinda just follow the energy you have and what you get from the audience and then you just go with that.

Ends up being a symbiotic relationship, then. Since it looks like you were having fun, I guess the crowd was also doing a good job.
A great show for both Borknagar and the audience.


Too bad I was not there.

[Windvang]

the video of collosus is brilliant
during the solo I took the leg of a friend of mine and started to play 'leg' guitar on it
but some other people thought I want to get him up for crowd surfing so we did as you can see at the end of the video

 

[lefay82]

i was sure it was you. i've a good photografic memory!
