It started… not so good. Ben doing a lot of vocals, Von hidding at the side of the stage. Summer was semi-instrumental. Half of the lyrics were “forgotten”.
But then, the second half of the set was a lot better and everything got better and better! Strong versions of ‘Here’, ‘On the beach’ and the encores were a blast!!! With even a moshpit. So after a strong Brooklyn gig and this Chicago gig I can return happy to Belgium.

Thank you very much for the setlist and review... already swallowed ... :) ...
I can well imagine. Some situations take a lot of frustration tolerance to cope with, especially as one obviously preferred things to run better ... :wink: ...
So it's good to hear they managed to improve long before the encores and a good night was had after all ... ;D :notworthy: ...

Yeah, New York and Chicago, that was a lovely choice ... have a safe trip home ... :D ...

Eek, bens voice. Sounding a bit like a cover band at the moment. :( :eek:

Sound of pulling gaffer tape from a dustbin. I cannot see / hear it anymore.

How long after doors opened did the band come on? I looked through the US tour threads and didn't see anything on that.

About same as Philly. Maybe started 5 minutes later and finished 5 minutes earlier.

For the sake of historical value..... this was not a great show. Von was not feeling it. Seemed like he didn't want to be there. The venue is beautiful but I think the sound got swallowed up. Lots of people standing with arms crossed. Seemed like Ben tried per usual but it just wasn't clicking.
