Krefeld was soooooooo awesome!
Also little crowd, but at least everyone was there with all their hearts and Dan said "We play for each and everyone tonight", no matter the amount of people. Very nice and very motivated!
This little club at the end of the world had one of the best soundsystems I ever heard, it was just so crystalclear and powerful, (a bit too loud for my taste but otherwise fine).
The supportbands were a positive surprise to me. Dynamic Lights are excellent! Everybody try them out, very compact and tight and heavy prog-stuff, with two vocalists and harmonies and whatnot.
Tomorrow ´s Eve were good, too, but not as much as DL imho. Some songs were too long, and they were not "finished" enough, but anyways, they are the perfect mixture between Green Carnation and Iron Maiden
Nightingale were awesome
I am extremely happy that I decided quite late to visit this gig, too, because I hope I won´t forget it so soon.
Concerning the playlist, I think a reason why it was shorter in Ludwigsburg was, that they had a kind of curfew or so, not their fault. In Krefeld they gave two encores. A reason why there were not Misery or The Wake: Dan said, he wanted especially Eternal to play, and with The Wake additionally the whole playlist would be too mellow. Misery wasn´t performed because he thinks that works better when you have an organ-player on stage
They didn´t bring the keyboard, had a DAT-recorder (I suppose) and Dag was playing guitar, too.
The songs of the evening as far as I remember:
Nightfall Ouverture
Revival
A Raincheck On My Demise
Atlantis Rising
Deep Inside Of Nowhere
Into The Light
Eternal
Shadowland Serenade
The Game
One Of The Lonely Ones
Still Alive
---
Black Tears
? (I think it was the new song of Nightfall Ouverture)
----
Steal The Moon
:hotjump:
and I met Unicorn, too.
PS:
Silent Song: For a shirt and CD, send a mail/pm to Dan or Dag (Gurgelguff), I´m sure it can be arranged to send you these.
