I meant different from the recording. But I did hear a version earlier. Great show, great location, even though wuerzburg 2010 was even more scenic.
Not too impressed by the new song. Rest was brilliant. Top position, middle, front.

Why not too impressed Pottel ??
Tomorrow I'm making great sacrifices to come to Stuttgart.... Only for that song, so I really hope it will be played. Do you think Mark is able to do this to me, that is not play dotds for the first and the last German shows of the week, e.g the ones I attend ???
Let's go and pray...

I agree with Pottel and I don't wanna moan .
I only had the chance to listen to the you tube versions but I also was not too impressed by the new song so far.
I was hoping for a guitar solo or another instrument ( I prefer guitar  ::) ) which did not go with the melody line,
this is the same like e.g. night in summer long ago and piper.
I was hoping for a KOG kind of thing...........still I am glad with a new song offcourse !

+1

Mark just plays the song out with the guitar rather than goes for a solo in the true sense of the word.  I can't  help feeling underwhelmed by it even though it still sounds beautiful simply because I'm waiting on Mark to let rip on the LP.

Back from Bad M., unfortunately my last show and what a downer - audience wise. The show itself was great but I have never ever experienced such a disrespectful audience at a MK concert (and as you know, I've been to quite a few). I arrived quite late, probably 19.15, there was a traffic jam on my favourite autobahn (not), the A3, and it took me an eternity to find that official concert parking lot. It was on a VERY big lawn and you had to walk like forever to get to the venue. I didn't have a FoS ticket but a "normal" GA one - press tickets are for free but not always better - so my friend and I were somewhere among the "normal" crowd.

And boy, there was so much talking and beer-buying going on, I felt like I participated in one big picnic with meaningless background music rather than being at a MK show. People were wandering around, chatting, boozing. I mean, it's okay to get ONE beer, maybe two, but SEVEN? As my friend remarked, who wants to numb himself with alcohol when you have MK onstage, performing those beautiful tunes with those great lyrics? Only idiots, one would assume.

Those people really got me aggravated and I told them off, EACH one. When they asked me to let them pass, I said no, go home and booze. What really irritates me is that boozing at concerts seems to be the most normal thing in the world for most people, and nobody cares how it disturbes others. One drunk guy got really violent and pushed a woman away. Hello??? This and the constant chatting made it impossible to concentrate. I was so looking forward to hearing the Submariner, but then it literally drowned. Heard the mood must have been better at the FoS area, so lesson learned. Next time, better ticket. But then, it's sad that you only seem to get a "proper" concert experience when you spend more money (or in my case, spend money, even though you are there for your job).

Wasn't too impressed with the venue to be honest, W

I totally sympathise with you GH.  My concert in Glasgow 2010 was a little rowdy, fuelled by alcohol too.  Fortunately I was down the from at the pre-sale seats but there was some noise from the back and I read a report in a newspaper that someone got beer spilled over him!  No doubt this was partly due to it being an unseasonable sunny and hot day but I see no need for venues to sell alcohol at all.  I guess profits will win at the end of the day though.

The closer you're to the bar the worse are your neighbours, wherever you are ! (more in the UK or the Germany because the standard beer portion is 0.5 liter, only 0.25 in France ! ;D)

I don't think it's the size, but more the culture.  Certainly in the UK.

The same in the Netherlands, I was a couple of weeks ago to a Bruce Springsteen concert. Also a lot of chatting around me, and lots of beer...

I watched the more recent youtube video of DOTDS. Ok, it's quite similar to the original (a bit slower, as usual) but I like the role played by Ianto on the drums, also in the outro instrumental part. Also some interesting liks by MK, always in the outro.... Very good for me!

Funny how different tastes are. I think it is a very nice addition to the set, much better live and fits better for Mark than Back To Tupelo.. nice variation, good

 ;D :lol :P

Concerning DOTDS:
For me DOTDS is one highlight of the concert. The song is pure emotion. Normally i never sing along on a concert, but in Mergentheim i just started to sing along with DOTDS and it was just wonderful. He should keep on playing it (and adding SFFTC  :P )

The Submariner is such a lovely tune, never really noticed until I heard it live. It's been going around my head since July 5, even though the beer-boozers spoiled it for me. Love the enigmatic lyrics - IIRC, we somehow agreed it's about a dying man letting his life pass before his inner eye?
