Skambankt FansiteWell, I know I wrote that I won’t be able to make it to the concerts in Moss and Sarpsborg – but well, never say never. =;-) And theoretically, I could have worked from Norway as well, if my machine had actually let me access the network. As it didn’t, I just have to hope that everything went well while I was gone… *uhem* ... read on!
Konzerte
23.10.2009 Skambankt (Tivoli Amfi, Moss)
Saturday, October 24th, 200903.10.2009 Skambankt (Garage, Bergen)
Sunday, October 4th, 2009Actually, I had decided to skip the Skambankt tour this fall. Not because I didn’t want to see any Skambankt concerts (of course I want to!!), but because the dates were so inconvenient for me, and ’cause I’d been to Norway five times this year already… Then Skambankt announced that they would play Slukk meg on this tour, and I decided to take a closer look at the dates after all. =;-) ... read on!
05.09.2009 Kaizers Orchestra (Verket Festival, Mo i Rana)
Monday, September 7th, 2009Of course I couldn’t keep myself from checking the remaining tour dates after my last Kaizers concert at Månefestivalen after all… And it didn’t take long until I found the perfect date! Especially as it was the last concert for this year (and who knows for how long…). OK, maybe I shouldn’t have based my decision on the date only, but also considered where in Norway the concert would take place? =;-) ... read on!
19.08.2009 Skambankt (Driv, Tromsø)
Thursday, August 20th, 2009Report by Lena V.:
It was just hours since the last (mini-)concert, and already time for me to go to Driv. I arrived about 45 minutes after the doors opened, and it seemed the concert had already begun. As it turned out, an unannounced support band was playing – they were really great, and I decided on the spot that I will definitely see them again in the near future. Because there were going to be two support acts, the first band started as early as 21:30, just half an hour after the doors opened… They were called The Great Big Taters, and this was their second concert in Tromsø this year. Had it been up to me, they could have been both support acts, that’s how great they were live… *g* I had found myself a spot a couple of meters back from the stage, but when The Great Big Taters left the stage, there was suddenly a lot of space free in front, right in the middle… For some reason I don’t really understand, I felt myself drawn to the empty space… And I HAD actually planned to enjoy this concert from inside the crowd… :pJackie Moonshine, the second support band, was as I had foreseen better indoor in the evening than they were earlier in the day at the university campus. They seemed to really enjoy playing for such a big audience, and savoured the applause and cheering from the crowd. And when they were asked to do an encore, they literally shone with delight… But they had used up their stage time, and had to pack up their gear. ... read on!
19.08.2009 Skambankt (Campus, Tromsø)
Wednesday, August 19th, 2009I was at work, just another ordinary Monday, when I suddenly got an e-mail saying “Did you know about this?”. There was a link enclosed, to the home page of Studenthuset Driv – the local student cafè/bar/concert venue. Oh – that’s nice, Skambankt will be playing in Tromsø this autumn… When? … In 2 (TWO!) days! WOW! That’s what I call a flying start of the week!
I headed straight down to Driv after work to get hold of a ticket… ... read on!
25.7.2009 Skambankt (Månefestivalen, Fredrikstad)
Saturday, July 25th, 2009Yep, time for another festival! And this time with Skambankt AND Kaizers Orchestra, even on the same day. But I’ll keep the reports separate, so this one will probably be rather short – given that Skambankt had only about 40 minutes…

25.7.2009 Kaizers Orchestra (Månefestivalen, Fredrikstad)
Saturday, July 25th, 2009My last Kaizers concert was more than two and a half months ago – way too long, time for another concert! Even though I didn’t have the feeling lately that I really “missed” something the last weeks. But when the stage was set up for Kaizers, when the intro came on, and when Kaizers came up on stage, it did feel special. Hah… finally another Kaizers concert!

17.7.2009 Skambankt (Slottsfjellfestivalen)
Friday, July 17th, 2009Skambankt are busy playing festivals, and I’m gonna miss out on that? No way! The decision for Slottsfjell festival was easy: It’s right next to Oslo-Torp, where the cheap RyanAir flights go… =;-) And then, Kaizer Orchestra were announced for another festival the week after, so that made a great vacation. Two birds with one stone! Or actually three birds, ’cause just after I had booked the vacation, Skambankt were announced for the second festival as well! But more about that next week, now it’s time for Slottsfjell!

4.7.2009 Die Ärzte (Stadion, Linz)
Saturday, July 4th, 2009This entry doesn't exist in English.
Gnaah… Jetzt hab ich 75 Konzertberichte geschrieben, und dieses Mal hab ich’s einfach… vergessen? Oder verdrängt? Oder keine Zeit gehabt? Von allem ein bisschen. Und dazu kommt natürlich noch, dass ich mir ja einen Mitschnitt-USB-Stick gekauft habe. Und mit Mitschnitt erübrigt sich natürlich das Mitdenken – oder sich gar etwas vom Konzert zu merken. *hüstel*

3.7.2009 Die Ärzte (Stadion, Linz)
Friday, July 3rd, 2009This entry doesn't exist in English.
Hmpf… Ich war mir nicht wirklich sicher, ob ich überhaupt Lust auf die Konzerte in Linz hätte. Und die sechs Stunden Fahrt halfen da auch nicht wirklich weiter.. Aber immerhin kam ich problemlos zum Hotel, obwohl das im abgesperrten Bereich ums Stadion lag, und das Wetter blieb auch trocken und warm genug. Das war also dann doch recht vielversprechend. Im Stadion angekommen, sah es dann gleich wieder anders aus: Viel zu groß, die Ränge abgesperrt, geschlossener Wellenbrecher mit Bändchen. Und Deichkind hatten auch schon angefangen… Ich hab dann gleich beschlossen, mir den Wellenbrecher-Stress nicht zu geben und es dafür ruhig angehen zu lassen. Das war auch absolut okay so, allerdings hab ich selten so wenig verstanden bei einem Ärzte-Konzert. Nicht mal so sehr akustisch (wobei, das auch teilweise), aber oft stand ich einfach mit großem Fragezeichen im Gesicht da, wenn DÄ plötzlich in größtes Gelächter ausbrachen. Keine Ahnung, ob das an der Entfernung zur Bühne lag und ich manche Sachen einfach nicht gesehen habe? Oder ob ich einfach zu müde war und einiges nicht mitgekriegt habe? Oder haben DÄ wirklich ständig mit Insidern rumgeschmissen, die man nicht verstehen konnte?
