AVO again
« on: March 31, 2012, 03:29:34 PM »
I know you will all have seen this many times before (even I have seen it several times and I'm less of an MK fan than most of you):

Anyway, as it says here, it's on TV again in Britain in the near future and it's on a channel that often repeats programmes, too.

In fact, you might as well see what else is on in the coming days:-

This was one of the 2007 showcases from Basel, but I really didn't enjoy it much at all, apart from Postcards and BIA, which were played beautifully.  Mark didn't seem quite his usual self to me and I much preferred the showcase from Berlin the same year.

My sentiments exactly.  In fact, possibly one of MK's worst performances. :o

Isn't it ironic that we got a perfect HD recording from this mediocre performance... whereas all those really BRILLIANT stuff is hidden somewhere in the vaults...

I wonder if MK wasn't feeling very well that night.  His eyes seemed very dull and he didn't appear to be enjoying himself at all.   :-\

It was the Berlin show where Guy said the intense heat was causing problems with their intruments.  Maybe they were just a little rusty having not played regularly for a while (I think Guy said as much).

Looks like Mark is playing through a couple of Hot Rod Deluxes or Devilles! I'd like to know how he's getting that nice dirty sound from them?
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

I losed the dvd where I had the AVO sessions + Berlin broadcasts from the KTGC promotion, did any of you have any torrent link that works or have that dvd in his/her hard disk and could re-seed it from anywhere, please?

I know they were not good shows, but they were HD and very intimate shows, I would like to have them.
You might get lucky, now and then
