croekk Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzS8xu6iCXM Quality is not the best. Much better vocals this time imho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frakkles Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Of course the vocals are going to be better the second time around especially if they haven't played it in THREE years. Why do people seem so surprised by this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
croekk Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Because surely they had rehearsed it many times before playing it in St. Petersburg. So it wasn't really the first time in three years. At the RAH 2008 gig his vocals were excellent as well. After a much longer break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryoma-kun Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Rehearsing it is not the same as playing it live. Where does anyone say they're surprised that vocals are better this time? And it's not just Megalomania that's better, vocals on all songs are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Play nice. Some people like different songs to the ones you like. These likes are opinions and not facts. Please see the distinction between an objective good performance and the subjective likability of the song being performed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice not holding through the notes and being forced over in an weak falsetto or a clear powerful chest-notes before going purposely over in a strong falsetto. Which Take A Bow do I prefer?

leechoflife Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 So, now that the excitement of yesterday has died down a little, I tried to make a full setlist with all the riffs and other things, since it doesn't seem to have appeared round here, not even on Musewiki. This is what I got: 1. Overture 2. Uprising (long, riff version, whatever) 3. SMBH 4. MOTP + Who Knows Who riff 5. Guiding Light 6. Interlude + Hysteria + Back in Black outro 7. Citizen Erased 8. Nishe + piano 9. USoE 10. Megalomania 11. Helsinki Jam 12. UD 13. Resistance 14. Tits 15. House of the Rising Sun (instrumental) + TIRO + Jimmy Jam + Maggie's Farm riff 16. SS + Township Rebellion riff + Endless Nameless riff Encore: 17. Soldier's poem 18. Take a Bow 19. Plug in Baby 20. Harmonica + KOC Musewiki says that KOC was a separate encore, but I really doubt that. There wasn't much time between PiB and Harmonica. The only thing I'm not sure about is when Maggie's Farm was played. As for Guiding Light, I was absolutely happy to hear it. I love Guiding Light and I can't understand people bashing it. It's really very emotional, it sounds great live, the solo is dramatic and powerful, though many people around me looked dissatisfied when it started. Jedem das seine! And as for analysis and this kind of stuff, you know, I'm really mad about music theory and chords and keys etc, but music theory cannot always explain why you like some piece of music or not. Love is irrational. I think Guiding Light is nice, and I enjoyed it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffrey0603 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_d1UsUlGi8&feature=related WOW! I never knew the stadium was so huge! And the stage set up was really cool, much better than the 3 pillars! Did they increased the number of lasers too? And does matt have a new onstage amp? At 0.48, its a Marshall!

leetroot Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Not sure if someone has put it here or not (and too lazy to look), but this is a fucking EPIC version of Overture: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_pECosIVEw&feature=channel_video_title this song is a brilliant way to start a gig. i totally loved it at stockholm - i wish they'd kept it for more of that tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the 'Why are we' part. And the intense guitar swings when the riffs starts. My expectations for Reading/Leeds have increased by alot after these two gigs.

halo eighteen Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I wish KOC as a closer would fuck off. I wish the same songs (in the same order) since Fall 2009 would fuck off. At least the band is trying to branch out with Megalomania and more frequent performances of Citizen, Map, Take a Bow, and... Soldier's Poem... Take what we can get at this point,no?
