Set 2
The vibe is always good in Bremen, the audience always behaves, no talk during the songs (not even when Bent goes for the acoustic one), but ovations after every song. The receptions is just fabulous, and you can see that the band immensely appreciates finally being amongst 1200 true friends.
So we get what we always get in Bremen: A great and long set, with lots of smiles and lots of energy from the stage. As always at Schlachthof it strikes me that this band seems to be a different one to the one I know from back home. I see them smiling and happy putting in that little extra. The fantastic feeling of being together with 1200 fellow genuinly interested fans, every single one smiling from ear to ear, everyone diggig the music, and everyone focusing on what happens on stage, nothing else, is undescribable after having spent a week among imbecilic Norwegian crowds.
Sound quality: The sound is clear and undisturbed by audience noise, but one channel slightly overpowers more or less throughout. On my stereo it doesn't bother me, but it is very noticeable in headpones and on bigger and better stereos than mine (like Alex' stereo:-).
Highlights: Close Your Eyes, the first All Is Loneliness of the tour, and the Superunreal combo.
Alex says: "starmelt" saw its tour-premiere here as well.
i was rather surprised to learn that this particular bremen recording did not turn out as great as the one from 2001. although the set-up & the equipment were almost the same there is a huge difference between the 2001 & the 2002 recording:. while the 2001 bremen recording was the best audience tape from the "phanerothyme" tour the 2002 tape might just be the poorest recording from the "love cult" tour [apart from ?rhus and frankfurt]. even bergen with its fucked up sound at the garage sounds better.
that doesn't spoil the *great* performance, though. a great show, heavily on the guitar-side of MP, it is a vivid flashback to 1997/98 elevating it to the best MP-show i saw this year (out of 10). supersweet is the extended intro to "577" (though not on intention, lol) as is the first "vs" i heard since april 2000. another highlight is the transition between "superstooge" & "unreal". not as radical as halden or wien ["superstooge"& "hogwash"] it has the same abstract & heavy vibe, though.
Summary: the poor sound makes this recording a "you had to be there" affair. there are many better "love cult" shows to get. still, it is better than most shows from the second half of the tour (i.e. complete italy).
