Tivoli, Utrecht, the NetherlandsDecember 8th 2006
Laibach
Ah, the long waiting has been worth it. Finally it was Friday, December 8th, and time for Laibach. For years they have been undeniable in the industrial and experimental music. If you aren’t to sure whom I’m talking about, some of their well known songs are: Tanz Mit Laibach, and Alle Gegen Alle. Yep, it’s that Laibach I’m talking about. Tonight they performed in Tivoli, and let the people listen to their new album Volk.
There were some rumours going around that it was sold out. I don’t think it was, but because the balcony wasn’t open it was still quite busy in the venue. According to the Time table the show would start at 20.15. There was some music starting at 20.15. A CD with different folk songs. Most of it sounded eastern European. This went on for about 45 minutes, then around 9 o’clock the venue became dark, and the Dutch national anthem ‘Wilhelmus’ was played.

Live-Music-Hall, Cologne, Germany
04th December 2006
CRADLE OF FILTH, DEATHSTARS, INCUBATOR
My last visit to the Live Music Hall in Cologne has been quite a while, but for one of the four CRADLE OF FILTH concerts in Germany a two-hour-trip over the rocky freeways was a matter of true loyalty. Exactly at 8 pm we were waiting in a mob of Goths and Metal heads to get into the concert hall. It had been a predictable fan base, because the artists who were going to perform this evening are having a reputation.

Kulturfabrik, Krefeld, Germany1st December 2006
IAMX and Warren Suicide
IAMX, the “dark side of the SNEAKER PIMPS”, are on tour in Germany. What to expect? Definitely a concert of a special kind. Less a real band but rather a piece of art mixed of music and visual conception, IAMX show impressively that also an electronic band can present a grandiose and powerful show. Support band for the German tour were WARREN SUICIDE from Berlin.

Weststadthalle, Essen, Germany05th December 2006
Mesh, Iris and Conetik
On Tuesday the 05th December, we went to Essen to see MESH and their support bands IRIS and CONETIK. The concert took place in the WESTSTADTHALLE, situated in the center of Essen. I didn't know this location before and now I can say that I didn't miss anything. The location is a little square room with the charm of an exhibition hall, the stage is on the long side of the room and the acoustic is terrible.
