Rockin on through Europe, this is our fourth show. Here at a venue called Mitsubishi Electric Halle.
An exciting arrival today. Stick Men’s upcoming album, “Let’s Thrak Again” will be released in September - but they’ve prepared an early version of the CD and LP, just for sale on this tour. So, lot’s more signing to do, but I’m happy about it.
Nice dressing room, that’s for sure!
After soundcheck, leaving the stage I suddenly recognized the area behind it, and realized I’d played here before. Looked it up, and this used to be called PhillipsHalle, and I was part of many Peter Gabriel shows here, as well as a King Crimson one in 1995 (the “Thrak” tour, in fact. So, I’m sort of Thrakking again!)
Funny that it took a brick wall for it to click in my brain. I guess, a lot of venues through the years.
No other pics from the first half of the show… I’m still pretty immersed in trying to play the songs right!
But, going on after intermission often is a chance for interesting shots.
Another very good one.
And… yeah, we sold a few of the new Stick Men cd’s!
Off next to Strasbourg, where we’ll have some time to hang out, see the great cathedral again, and, for some of us, update our Road Diaries!!
More soon.
