22nd September 2009VNV Nation, Rotersand
What a triumphal procession! Within the scope of the recent “Faith, Power and Glory Tour”, VNV NATION and the support acts FROZEN PLASMA and ROTERSAND are capturing the European clubs right now. Resulting in a totally sold out concert, the Frankfurt fans´ buying behaviour made the band announce an additional show taking place on 22nd September. A wonderful result for the live line-up consisting of Ronan Harris (vocals, lyrics), Mark Jackson (keyboards, e-drums), Vasi Vallis (keyboards) and Gabriel Shaw (keyboards) - and a further moment of success seamlessly continuing the storms of applause regarding the recent long-player `Of Faith, Power and Glory´.

Lichtburg, Essen, Germany22nd September 2009
Klaus Schulze feat. Lisa GerrardShe is an exceptional vocalist and most notable as being the second half of the legendary duo DEAD CAN DANCE which broke up in 1998 and he is deemed as the synth pope and while that surely is an over the top statement of some press representative there can be no doubt about the fact that he’s one of the most significant and influential actors of the electronic music scene. We’re talking about KLAUS SCHULZE & LISA GERRARD who came together thanks to a busy manager and with ‘Farscape’ (2008) created a monument of sound, followed by the Live CDs/DVDs ‘Rheingold’ and ‘Dziekuje Bardzo - Vielen Dank’. On 22nd September these two exceptional artists were supposed to be giving the audience at Essen’s Lichtburg a memorable evening, and it was a memorable evening. It just turned out different than planned. http://www.klaus-schulze.com/ / http://www.lisagerrardmusic.com/ / http://www.myspace.com/farscape2008

Kulturfabrik, Krefeld, Germany18th September 2009
VNV Nation, Rotersand, Frozen Plasma
On a sunny Friday afternoon we were heading towards Krefeld where VNV NATION would be playing a few hours later. The reason why we’ve arrived there so early was that we had a little interview appointment with Ronan Harris before the show. What he had to say can be read soon here on Reflections of Darkness. But now let’s get to the main topic of this article; the music and performances of the evening.
