Wasn't there obviously, but the last time Smith perused Zagreb environs and audience, it was a defining moment, to say the least. I don't know if any reviews are coming, so perhaps we long termers could discuss notions of previous and/or...
But someone answer this?- Something about drummer and PA/ resiliant bunch- about this I want to know more, as do you.... ps- or 6/7/08, depending on specific incontinent. -------------------- "They will crack under the belief that the truth can be explained to them." Exo. The Vaudeville Cane.
Consistency rewards both purpose and delusion. It is the end without end for the faithful and the mad. I invent Gods' to parcel out tombs. And wonder- did Helen Keller die a consensual virgin? EXO |

From the newspage:
"According to Juraj, the set was Is This New / Alton Towers / Theme from Sparta F.C. / I've Been Duped / Pacifying Joint / Fall Sound / 50 Year Old Man / Mountain Energei / Reformation / Strange Town / White Lightning / Blindness The only review I've read so far, from Vmitrovi: The Fall played yesterday at the Rokaj fest in Zagreb, an hour long set. I couldn't recognise any of the songs, a mate of mine couldn't either and he's a lifelong fan. The kids from the band gave interviews, Mark didn't. Annoyed the drummer and attempted to disturb the audience through PA noise, but we're a resilient bunch." The last sentence seems to answer your question - MES was obviously trying to disrupt Keiron's playing & was creating feedback or noise with his amp twiddling. -------------------- New members - please read the "terms of use" of the forum, see link at top left of page.

I was there. Gig was outstanding, but don't take my opinion too seriously 'cos i'm fall-obsesive fan. Set list was little bit disapointing, but who cares, it is the Fall living leg-ends. Sounds too punky for me. I prefer clear Fall sound with more electronica. MES vocals, drums and bass in first plan, Eleni keyboards in deep shadow. Reformation post TLC, Sparta and Blindness were best part of set list. Mountain energei too slow version. MES very focussed. I'll try to uplod more videos from gig if i extract it from my mobile phone.
-------------------- The Fall are huge here in Belgrade.

The mic stand gets it like a Chipperfield monkey. I'd enjoy watching the Bournemouth Runner trying to make off with that back drop. -------------------- Hanleyvision™ http://www.youtube.com/user/hanleyfender

That might come across as extremely sniffy... but still

R,e Exo,s post,
MES said in an interview about the really strange atmosphere playing Zagreb the first time, It would be nice to hear about the contrast. -------------------- ;Just like people
