No more reviews of this amazing gig???
To take up the cudgels for the german fans, I decided to add one more.

First of all: thanx for the photo and vid, phoenixdecay.

I guess due to the strange mixture of bands and the fact it was a sunday evening it wasn´t sold out.

In my opinion The Revs and Nada Surf did a great job that evening. Just a guitar, a bass and a drumset. That´s Rock.

Short review on LiVE:
I was a bit scared how they would sound and which songs they would play. So first of all I noticed the lack of a keyboard - yes!

It was like the crowd was sleeping till the guys entered the stage. It was definitely worth waiting from 5 p.m. till 11:30 p.m. and standing Calexico - sorry Calexico fans. LiVE played only 3 or 4 songs from the new album that sounded live - without keys - far better than the short samples from the album I found in the www. Not to mention that the the rest of the set was awesome. I´m really looking forward to the TV broadcasts of this show.

Anyway, album is available in Germany from now on. Guess I should give it a try. But how should it get worse than V (which I as a fool bought also)

Best whishes from Germany
