Hmm. Operation first row went wrong, we ended up in the second – so I have to admit, I didn’t really get much of what was happening. =;-) But it was great anyway!
And also, there won’t be any pictures this time (except for HGH, maybe), as my batteries decided to fall out of my camera during the first song. And it’s kinda hard to take pictures without batteries – even though the conditions would have been perfect, the view was fantastic… only all the Scandinavians around me got on my nerves. =;-) Naah, no complaining here of course, but I’ll never understand why you need to hit your arms against someone else’s head all the time during a concert.
The setlist: KGB, Delikatessen, Hevnervals, Knekker deg til sist, Ompa til du dør, Bøn fra helvete, Senior Flamingos adieu, Blitzregn Baby, Veterans klage, Mann mot mann, Kontroll på kontinentet, Jævel av en tango, Den sjette sansen, Dekk Bord, Dieter Meyers Inst., encore Maestro, Bak et halleluja, Resistansen, second encore Min kvite russer. I’m not a hundred percent sure that Veterans klage is at the right place in the setlist – it wasn’t on the written list, but I’m sure they played it.
I don’t really remember much about the concert. The crew helped out HGH during “I’m in love with my brother” again, the Jackal went into the audience again, and this time he even sang one whole song (I think it was Bak et halleluja) in there. Kvite Russer was impressive, as the audience continued singing looooong after Kaizers went off stage. And they even got some real White Russians during the song! Which might be the reason for the Jackal falling off the barrel a few minutes later. Of course the whole band ran towards him them, beating and kicking him. =;-) He saved himself by climbing up on the other barrel and jumping down from it again – well, after making a big show out of it, of course. =;-)
When they came back to play the encore, the Jackal showed Omen around and pointed at the audience. “And there, up on the gallery…” – and everyone up there started cheering. “And back there… and DOWN HERE!” But Omen was only rolling his eyes. *gg*
During the introduction, Elvis marched across the stage following the guitar players, and lateron, it was the big time for Christmas-Gegg. *gg* Hellraizer had a Santa Claus hat and beard beneath his towel. Comment by the Jackal: “Now – do you believe in Santa Claus???”
Talking of comments, of course the Jackal asked again who was from where (and if the Swedes had been listening, I would have gotten my place in the front row *g*). The girl from Finnland was invited backstage, ’cause she had had such a long way to travel. And then: “So, anybody else from Finnland now?” – and yep, there suddenly were a lot more than before. *lol*
And they all loved each other on stage, there was a lot of hugging this time. And yesterday’s Christmas tree had made it into the stage decorations. *g*
OK, that’s all I remember. And today, I’ll take it a bit more slowly and get up to the gallery. =;-)
