Yep, that's the problem when some people from the press (in Peru or Chile) don't understand english

Finally I'm gonna see them coming Saturday

saw them last week. i'd like to say it was a great show but well, it was ok but nothing really awesome. ot boring but it all felt so much like a routine somehow. it was much better last time i saw them (4 years ago). actually it was not much different, lots of same songs played.

by the way, martin's guitar is being mixed just way too high, it made the sounds unnecessarily messy - the moment he went back behind the keyboards the sound became so much better. unfortunately they were only one or two songs where he did that. to my taste, he really should stop playing guitar in almost every song. i realized how much i miss the old more kraftwerk-ish DM.
some of the ewer arrangements just don't work really well, imo. 'in your room' (which should be great) sounded really energyless and dull (how come? :O), 'never let me down again' was a big let down too, because of the arrangement. a lot of people actually said the same after the show.
'world in my eyes' was good (partially because there was no guitar), one of the best moments musically. the new songs were ok but i don't find them such thrilling songs so hard to say i guess.

dave sounded good for the first half of the show, not so good during the second. but he still can keep the show going (even though i personally find it all a bit silly a lot of times now )

the best thing of the evening for me was the video of the raven on the screen during walking in my shoes', that was great:

on the video, i like it around 0:53 where it looks like the giant bird looks like he's planning to bite dave's head off.

the support, nitzer ebb was well, simply dreadful. sorry. but it felt like they played the same song over and over again for over 45 minutes - i've never written so many sms during a concert as during their performance. :-P
