  3. Echoing. IpinchU's request. This will be my last of 13 dates I made this year. Hopefully we will get some more obscurities tonight. Perhaps Snakepit Chain of Flowers and the one I saw in New Orleans on the second night Same Deep Water....

  8. Just back from the third gig of my personal cure tour 2026. Solid mainset with a beautiful surprise: The Blood, played for the first time in the tour. Despite the voice's problems, robert is in good mood.
    Personal higlights: the blood, 100 years, it can never be the same, from the edge of the deep green sea.
    Crowd was a little too quiet from my point of view: I was first raw, just under Roger and, with the exception of a few person, no one singed the songs.

    Last but not least: Twilight sad set was beautiful tonight.

    Next stop for me: London night 2.

    Cheers to everybody.

    1. Totally agree. The Blood was excellent. The crowd was definitely inconsistent in its applause throughout the show.

    2. Yes, it was a bit weird. First raws usally are more involved in the show. Yesterday it wasn't. Anyway, a lot of compliments to the spiderman in the crowd and to the guy with the sign request For Bilbao ;).
