Rec. Info:

YOUR EARS AND MIND..on some time to skate...
Recorded by dear Lars at 4-5 meters from stage center, moved 2 meters to the right after the @-set to avoid more cheatin' chatters. I did some nasty EQing for the @-set, but I think
it sounds nice. Also I boosted a lot of the low end to the electric set, and, what a surprise, the BENTBASS was plugged in, as the mellotron...Somehow this sounds much better than the
KONGSBERG tape, but maybe given the bigger location and the better indoor sound system. Besides the usual annoying talk from the crowd, this sounds pretty fine...All thanks straight to
OSLO, to dear Lars for providing the master recording and letting me "play" on it for yours and mine grace.

Nothing to say? Not this time. My favourite band these daze seemed to have put up on speed and inspiration throughout their norwegian tour. Kind of "cryptical development" that only a few
blessed and supreme bands can do. Somehow like the Grateful Dead did...starting a bit slow, checking out on the vibes, but as soon as the "music plays the band", it's all worth the effort.
The acoustic set was cut down about some minutes, but the addition of "Sideway spiral I" is a real pick from treasure box. THe electric set surprises with a nice rendition of "The Afterglow",
which starts semi-acoustic before our dear Psychonauts explore the core of the (new) BEHIND THE SUN album, exploding in a 42+ minute version of all of HELL! Simply amazing! THe remainer of
the show isn't any downer as well, with a little exception: "All is loneliness" seems not to work in Norway...Sorry, but maybe most of the people like more to chat than to sing along.
But the encore part of the show is breathtaking...! Yes...and I really like this show. SB.
