THAT GIG WAS FUCKING INSANE !!!

I almost got knocked over by the crowd ... it was like whole 4 or 5 first lines were a huge mosh pit ... INSANE INSANE INSANE !!!

That concert was sheer hell. Now that I came from today's Vienna gig, I have to say Austrian audience was lame compared to what was going on yesterday in Prague.

Anyways, I don't recall the whole yesterday's setlist and the exact order of the songs, but it was something like this :

Teenage Riot -> Incinerate -> Reena -> Cross The Breeze -> Skip Tracer -> Catholic Block -> ...a bunch of songs from Rather Ripped ... -> Hey Joni -> 100% -> Pink Steam -> Encore : Or and something else then -> Shaking Hell

Today, the setlist was quite similar, with some exceptions:

Bull in the Heather instead of Teenage Riot
The Sprawl instead of Cross The Breeze
Mote instead of Skip Tracer
TRILOGY AS 1ST ENCORE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (this was especially marvellously done)

Sorry, I'm quite drunk, that's why this post seems rather idiotic.

oh i hate you sooooo much for this!

follow.blind · 08.27.2007, 07:14 AM

It was amazing - there was no security at all - only a guy from SY staff helped to get Thurston from "stage diving" trouble :-) (Teenage Riot ending...) Funny thing was that it was Thurston himsefl who helped to cool down crowd with water - not any big "serial killer-like" moron.

greenlight · 08.27.2007, 09:19 AM

I think there will be two scources of recording at least! I have a feeling vid. as well! Here's what taper of the show (who I contacted and persuaded record the gig - with rappard help) said about his recording:

Concert was great, great venue and gret crowd, many americans around lol
Very strong performance, and band seemed to enjoy during all the show, interacting with crowd and having a good time, specially Lee. Set lasted 90 min, really strong and energetic. Don't remembe

About the recording, I captured it complete. Bad news is that it distorts a little bit. It was caused cause I have to use a cheap Sound Professionals preamp instead of my planned rig (UA5). While checking at home, I noticed a problem with power batteries and have to run DPA > SP preamp > WAV. At least luckily I could notice while I was at home, so I could get a replacement and get the recording!

The fault was clearly at preamp stage as the wave file is not clipping, I used security settings and tried to monitor it on the field but no way, got the distortion even on those conditions. So bad the SP preamp distorted cause I think it could have been a much better quality recording.

I attached a sample of recording so you can hear it. You can notice in the third sample there is no distorsion in no drums part.... my fault, I'm so sorry about it, I think I could have get a really nice recording considering the venue and noisy crowd.

greenlight · 08.27.2007, 09:22 AM

anyway, I think he did a great job. here's sample:

it should be shared soon either by him, rappard or me. if there's a video as well I'll be investigate till I get it man.

greenlight · 10.10.2007, 12:54 PM

so here it goes (from email i got - for now only this):

hey richard,

i've been really busy these last weeks, but I still remember I have to upload the SY recording as promised.
I will do it soon, but I think it would be fair to send you a rough MP3 file with the whole recording.

You can download it from here:
