Cīmon, a rest of realism within all our enthusiasm would be good IMO:
Sarah was one of the downers from Amsterdam. She could not compete with Pearl at all visually and vocally (o.k., it was her first gig).
Meats voice was not as brilliant as it was in Cologne in January. And there where a lot af errors on and off stage. Like the missing tapes in Tear Me Down or at the end of Paradise. Like Meat unaware of lyrics or timing in DIST, CHSIB or even Bat. As a result there was too much acting and too few straight rock music offered that night.
Don`t get me wrong: I love Meat and saw him numerous times live. But despite the brilliant atmosphere, this was just one of the few shows not absolutely over the top.
