Looks and sounds great, but if any mediocre goth cover band from Millingen aan de Rijn can sing the intro from More in a rock cave with 12 people watching, WHY CAN'T ELDO SING IT RIGHT AFTER SO MANY YEARS?

It depends on what right means… He has the artistic freedom to change it from gig to gig as he wishes.

Who if not the artist himself can do with his works as he pleases? For me this version is way closer to the original than in the recent years. And I really like it as short, dry and clear as it is now ... haha, maybe even better than the slightly sidewards overloaded record version ... ;D ...

Well, musically it's al good for me, but listen to the intro; he already shouts 'More' as a chorus while the pattern is still at the verse... you call it freedom, i call it wicked.

It was awesome! :notworthy: :notworthy: Von's voice is fully recovered. It wasnt as loud as I was expecting but I was stood right at the back. You are in for a treat at the Germany concerts. And thanks for uploading all the pics and videos.
Some days I amaze myself. Other days I put the laundry in the oven.

Body electric-summer-nttc-something fast were the highlights of the evening.

I can't say i m impressed from last night's gig, i have seen the sisters 8 times between '97 and '15 and this is my least favourite for the following reasons
Chris can take over the vocal duties in full as he does as much singing as Andy.
I was at the front row and half way through the gig it was more whispering than anything else.
They didn't rehearse much as they had some major f**k ups confusing lyrics and music.
The flood 2 version is probably the worst i have listen to, everything seemed to go wrong , Chris looked bored as hell and Andy couldn't sing much, that was the lowest point of the gig.

Did i like it ? No.
If they were playing again tonight would i go? Yes.
Go figure.

What I like about this vid is you can see the crowd and you can have a sense of the atmosphere.
