The Sisters are actually more likely to watch football (or anything else) than play Malmö tomorrow :wink:

Btw, what was that with people queueing well into the scheduled gig time?


...voice, sound, crowd compared to Gothenburg?

There must have been tech issues with a guitar, Sisters got late on and played through the setlist without breakes

Sound was louder in Stockholm, almost so loud that they blew the PA
Some guitar issues as well, at least on the left stack.
Crowd was weird compared to Gothenburg, a lot of posh girls with high heels, male hipsters and s ton of bikers.
Andrews voice was crystal clear and a lot of stage bangers.

He said to someone in the audience "be careful what you wish for, you might get it" and went to Davey. For a sec, I thought we would get some fresh...but no :innocent:

Yes, the band said so on Twitter:
FYI Sisters stage time tonight in Stockholm
has been pushed back due to people still queueing outside.
We'll still be playing the same set.

However, here's a first flush of videos ... uploader apologises for bad sound, so be careful with the loudness ... otherwise nice footage, especially of the light effects ... :D ...
Well most ot the time ... Anyway, it is clearly notable that the band have fully found into their set ... ;D :notworthy: ... no more foolings ... :von: :notworthy:...

Set for 8:45 it started about 9:20, so no break at all. Break would have been good, just one as in gothenburg. Curfew times are strict in sweden it seems
Sometimes during the set, have to check when, a soundsystem issue came up. Crackling noise, almost glitches continuously audible, which really was annoying once you realised it. Not a guitar issue
Huge sports arena, huge crowd. Good for them, completely different atmosphere from gothenburg.
More stressed vocals this time too.
All in all a good show with mostly good sound.
Cheers from the airport

I don't do Twitter on gig days 😂😂
It looked like an tech issue, since the line check went on forever, but if I read Twitter I would have known.

Ppl need to drag their sorry selves faster to the venue, when I went in around 19.00, almost empty with ppl. The membranes perhaps played for 50-100ppl

Was not planning to, but I went anyway.
Had a great time. Ben and Chris played their parts as always. Hopefully they can bring that bass back to the Sisters. I wish...

Seems to be a great atmosphere at gröna lund. And their bass sounds really good.
