Helium Sunset: the apocalypse
|
|
The concert took place on a Saturday summer night and was not completely sold-out; that's too bad because
it turned out to be a fabulous and energetic gig with lots of new material (nothing was played from Mud Stories).
All in all, a great concert in the beautiful open air theatre "Rivierenhof", Deurne (Antwerp, Belgium).
The musicians of Satellite City opened the evening
at eight o'clock and performed some up-tempo songs for half an hour or so. Sioen
was next, but the songs and their amplification were too loud in my opinion.
In the next 80 minutes, An Pierlé and band played the following titles:
- Cold Winter *
- I Love You *
- Tenderness *
- As Sudden Tears Fall
- Mexico *
- Medusa
- Helium Sunset
- My Old Behaviour **
- Build A Better Life
- Sing Song Sally
- Kiss Me
- Sorry
- Sister
Encore:
- Poor Danny *
- Nobody's Fault
We were lucky to be treated to lots of new songs (*), some of which I have given a temporary title (**), lacking official information.
