The beginning of LP's European tour, was the first LP concert of my life... and now that I know what I've been missing all the years before, I regret that I didn't rebell against my parents... shame on me :(
But then the excitement was unbelievable, that night, a dream came true. 7 long long years I had been waiting for this moment to come. =)
The support act was ok, I don't know why, for some reason I knew they had to be from Skandinavia and yes, Finnish. They were not great these guys from Disco Ensemble. It was mainstream, nothing special. I was a bit upset, cause I expected Julien-K to play that night and was lookinh forward to hear them live. It took ages, at least 50 minutes to change the stage for LP and that was way too long in my opinion, but never mind. I take it all for one damn fkng amazing evening!!!
And it was fantastic!!! They started with What I've done, which fit perfectly to open this tour. The rest of the show were mixed songs from Minutes to midnight and the 'old classics' like Numd, Breaking the habit etc. It combined power and calmness, energy and silence, breaking free and holding your breath... All in all I was impressed with what I saw, what I heard, how I felt. The atmosphere before and after the concert was worth remembering. The concert itself will be kept in my memory until I die.
The only crtiticism I would make is considering the lenght of the show, it was a bit too short. I dunno, I'm used to longer performances, but never mind. I loved it!!!!
Thanks very much for a wonderful evening, the best of my life... hope I will get the chance to take part in one of your concerts soon again. ;)
