24-Jun-1994 - Krefeld, Kulturfabrik

Klaus Kluge, Germany, 12-Jul-94
(translated from a posting to the predecessor of the White-House mailing list)

As we had already heard, guitarist Heise had left the band, and so the main reason for this short tour was surely to give the new band members some practise. New members? Yes, Heise was replaced by two new musicians. One on guitar, while the other was changing between guitar and keyboards. Sorry, I can't remember the names. Result: Heise, we miss you! The guitarist wasn't very convincing and the keyboards were hardly noticable. Andi and Lexa were excellent as usual.

Shall I write a bit about Bobo as well? ;^)

Alright. We were 2-3 meters in front of the stage. Slightly right from the center where Bobo was standing. Unfortunately the stage was pretty high. Bobo was wearing a long black silk dress, with shoes that Tori Amos surely would fall in love with. :)

They played 2 or 3 songs which sounded unfamiliar and which hopefully will make it onto the next album.

The audience (about 200) were only starting to warm up with the encore, but we still didn't manage get the band out for a third time. In summary it was still an enjoyable concert.
