I was going to do a review - but I have decided to sulk as I am back in UK rather than being in Berlin and planning the onward drive to Poland. Grrrr... these things are made to try us. A fine first week though, and unique exposure to all the seasons in 48 hours courtesy of baking sunshine and roof down driving in Frankfurt to heavy snowfall in Zwickau the next day. And they say English weather is changeable...

Amsterdam: About par for the course - first gigs are always so-so though.
Frankfurt: Superb! Best so far - a baseline for the ones to come...
Leipzig: Decidedly ropey start, picked up towards the end.
Zwickau: Another good one, though not as good as Frankfurt.
Bremen: Excellent again, possibly even better than Frankfurt.

...and then I had to come home.

Arse.

Just returned from Bremen. Tired as hell but more than satisfied :-)

Most remarkable songs: I Was Wrong (too bad some people just can't shut the fuck up when played live), Snub Nose (a real killer, especially alongside with a great version of Lucretia), Flood II (as always), Vision Thing (mass destruction cluster bomb version with Eldritch yelling "This war is wrong!" several times at the end - too bad they did not play Dr. Jeep, would have fit either in this place).

The virtual prize for being the youngest fan in the audience (again) goes to Tine who seemed to enjoy the gig pretty much on Robin's shoulders ;-)

Cheers to everyone from Dominion we've met. Looking forward to meeting you again in Magdeburg.

Moin!

Andrew's singing was much better than at the Exxile on Euphoria tour dates in Hamburg 2001.

BTW: the gig was nearly sold out.

Von removed his shades during Dominion (only for a short moment).

Dirty green eyes.
