Maybe it was just me, but when the show started I had the feeling that the band had some problems "getting together". They were playing together, but somehow not. And there was a really weird atmosphere, it felt a bit restless and unconcentrated (just my personal impression). After two tracks it got better and the show actually started and got even more intense when they played 666 Conducer and Ain't no easy way.
Unfortunately some youngsters had to make a mess which was going beyond the usual moshpit, that spoilt the experience for some at the front and around. After they realized that Robert and Peter didn't approve of it it got a bit better (Thank you!).
Robert's Mercy was definitely a highlight and it was a relieve to have the lights out for it, so that there was just the nusic, nothing else. Sad that some people didn't quite get it and had to talk. That was still the case when Peter came on to do Faultline and Complicated Situation.
During the next tracks the band seemed to get more and more exhausted and you felt it in the way they were performing, but it was so amazing to see how they managed to make songs like As sure as the sun and especially American X a unique experience again. The last two songs of the regular set were pure energy and caught the audience, so that there just had to be the encores.
Heart and Soul was the last song, but the one I will remember for long now - there was everything in this song and it just didn't seem to end, it was one of those experiences when time stops and there is just the music around you. Thank you, guys!
And don't forget: even if there are people in the audience who just stand there and don't move, it doesn't mean they don't enjoy every single note you're playing! You are the best!

I was standing near the mixing desk and they indeed had some problems with some channels. And also the synth didnt work properly. Robert made a lot of mistakes in the beginning, also his singing wasnt too good in the beginning

the sound was realy horrible.
After a while it all became a lot better, but because of the bad sound i wasnt able to enjoy the concert as I should be.
The setlist was very cool, specially American X was very nice. And near the end they all played very well...but the sound... :(

memorable gig for me for a lot of reasons. mike (nappi) has been a real friend that day.

very VERY touching version of 'mercy' in pitch black darkness and my fave ever version of 'heart and soul'... completely mindblowing, hearing 'show�s about to begin' live for the first time also was a real treat.
great performance, fantastic setlist, despite the odd venue and the (mostly) sedated crowd.
what a bunch of troopers these guys are...

feel blessed being a fan.
