JETHRO TULL – Munich (Olympiahalle)
I won’t forget this day, because it was my very first Jethro Tull live experience! When I was 9 years old I became a fan and so this concert is still very special to me. Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, Dave Pegg, Martin Allcock and Doane Perry were on the „Rock Island“ world tour and stopped in Munich, Olympiahalle. Awesome performance!!!!

09/10/1998:
CALEXICO/VIC CHESNUTT/LAMBCHOP – Vienna (Szene)
What a bill: Calexico, Vic Chesnutt and Lambchop played that day in Vienna at the Szene! Unfortunately no pictures or videos of that night are on the internet, but in my memories this evening will stay there forever 😉
Calexico played most songs from their latest release „Black Light„.
Vic Chesnutt (November 12, 1964 – December 25, 2009) introduced us his album „The Salesman & Bernadette„.
And Lambchop performed their wonderful mixture of Slow Country and Soul on „What Another Man Spills„.

For this show I travelled to the village called Hartberg in Styria to see Chris Eckman (Walkabouts, Chris & Carla) performing with The Last Side Of The Mountain Band at the Schloss Hartberg (Rittersaal) to perform some songs of the album of the same name. He also played some Walkabouts classics and Neil Young’s „Cortez the Killer“. Before the show I did a very interesting interview with Chris for the Austrian independent radio station B138.

WOVEN HAND & HELLDORADO – Bonn (Harmonie)
As a huge Woven Hand fan it was obvious that I will do the trip to Bonn because this performance was filmed for the series of „Rockpalast“ at the Harmonie. And as a bonus the amazing band Helldorado from Norway did the support on that night. The shows were simply outstanding and luckily they broadcasted the recorded gigs on German television.
You have missed this? Really? Shame on you! But hey – you are a lucky bastard because you can watch the performances on internet!

24/10/2000:
APOCALYPTICA – Munich (Muffathalle)
Apocalyptica from Finland rocked the Muffathalle in Munich. This show was filmed for a DVD release called „Apocalyptica Live“ which features mostly songs from the masterpiece „Cult„.
P.S.: A few months before that show I did an interview with Eicca Toppinen at the music fair in Cologne – you can watch the video here (just scroll down a little bit)!

25/10/2006:
TRANSMISSIONARY SIX – Vöcklamarkt (Premysl)
Transmissoinary Six (feat. Terri Moeller from The Walkabouts and Paul Austin) played at the very small Austrian village called Vöcklamarkt. It was a very familiar performance at the Premysl because only a few people found the way to this bar. After the show Terri was so kind and signed my whole Walkabouts and T6 collection – thanks 😉

WILL WILDE – Salzburg (Rockhouse Bar)

27/10/1995:
JETHRO TULL – Munich (Rudi-Sedlmayer-Halle)
Jethro Tull stopped in Munich (Rudi-Sedlmayer-Halle) druing their „Roots To Branches“ tour. My personal highlight was the opening „A“ medley feat. the songs „And Further On“, „Fylingdale Flyer“ and „Protect and Survive“ as an instrumental. Unfortunately we sat far away from the stage but nevertheless it was a fantastic performance.
The Setlist:
„A“ Medley (And Further On/Fylingdale Flyer/Protect And Survive)
Roots to Branches
Rare and Precious Chain
Out of the Noise
Valley
In the Grip of stronger Stuff

28/10/1989:
JOE COCKER – Vienna (Stadthalle)
Joe Cocker in Vienna, Stadthalle. Yes, I was there, but to be honest: Just because a friend of mine wanted to be there. So I joined and it was not that bad at all! Especially the female background singers were awesome 😉 I do think this show was part of the „One Sight Of Sin“ tour …
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
29/10/1993:
DEEP PURPLE – Wels (Jubiläumshalle)
Deep Purple in Wels (Jubiläumshalle) with new songs from „The Battle Rages On“ on the setlist. One of the last concerts with Ritchie Blackmore on guitar. It was very sad to see that Ian Gillan and Ritchie Blackmore avoided each other. On the 17th November Ritchie left the band.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
29/10/2010:
THE REVEREND PEYTON’S BIG DAMN BAND – Vienna (Porgy & Bess)
The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band live in Vienna at the Porgy & Bess. Awesome perfomence – this band KICKS ASS!!!!! They performed almost any song of their masterpice called „The Wages„.
Before the show I did an interview for the Austrian independent radio statin B138 – stream/download it here!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
30/10/2002:
NICK CAVE – Vienna (Burgtheater)
Nick Cave (solo show feat. Warren Ellis, Jim White and Norman Watt-Roy) live in Vienna at the wonderful Burgtheater. It was obvious that this „band“ didn’t play a long time together – I do think it was the very first time that they performed officialy. The soundcheck was VERY long so the show started one hour late. This performance was part of the 10th anniversary of the „schule für dichtung„, a school for poetry in Vienna for which Nick Cave did some lectures.
Setlist:
The Mercy Seat
Sad Waters
Hallelujah
Into my Arms
God is in the House
There is a Kingdom
Darker with the Day
Gates to the Garden
West Country Girl
So far from me
Little Janey’s gone

MOLOTOV – Vienna (Szene)
This is one of those shows that you are attending because you don’t want to stay at home and watch TV. So I decided to see this Mexican crossover band Molotov at the Szene in Vienna and I have to admit that these Gringos blew me away! Very tight and heavy performance by excellent musicians who changed their instruments nearly song after song! Most of the tunes were from their debut „¿Dónde Jugarán las Niñas?“ which features the hit single „Gimme tha Power„. But they also did an amazing cover version of the Queen classic „Bohemian Rhapsody„.

STEVE WYNN (Solo) – Innsbruck (Die Bäckerei)
You can book Steve Wynn for a so called homeconcert in your living room as he told me in an interview a few years ago.
So this concert was like that – just him with an acoustic guitar he played at the tiny location called „Die Bäckerei“ in Innsbruck. The room was like a living room and in this very familiar atmosphere he played also some songs which were demanded by the crowd. So thanks a bunch for playing „There will come a Day„, by the way 😉
The REAL Setlist:
Medicine Show
Days of Wine and Roses
Tears won’t help
Top of the Hill
Burn
Kerosene Man
Love me anyway
Punching Holes in the Sky

WOVEN HAND – Ebensee (Kino)
My very first Woven Hand live experience – and many should follow 😉
David Eugene Edwards introduced me and one of my friends that night to his new side project beside 16 Horsepower in a very soft and sweet way. Daniel McMahon (Keyboards), Shane Trost (Bass and Trumpet) and Ordy Garrison (Drums, Percussion) created a wonderful sound at the Kino in Ebensee.

White Bird
Bleary-eyed Duty
Arrowhead
Blue Pail Fever
Cripplegate

Wooden Brother

During the show (between two songs) a cell phone rang. David said to the guy: „Hey, your mobile phone is ringing.“ Then the crowd laughed out loud while this guy answering the call in typically Austrian accent: „I bin auf an Konzert!“ 😉
Pictures of the show are here!

MONKEY MUSIC NIGHT – Linz (Posthof – Big Hall)
Featuring these Austrian bands:
Ordinary World, When The Music’s Over & Matt Boroff

CALEXICO – Vienna (Radiokulturhaus)
This was a special performance from Calexico – if you wanted a ticket for that show you had to tinker something which is related in some way to the name of the band. Well, I created something cheesy and won a ticket 😉
Joey Burns, John Convertino and the other boys performed mostly brandnew songs from the album „Garden Ruin“ at the Radiokulturhaus.
The Setlist:
Yours and Mine

THE TIGER LILLIES – Graz (Orpheum)
This was the first time when I saw The Tiger Lillies live performing at the Orpheum in Graz. This is that sort of band you have to see live at least once. So if you have the chance just do yourself a favor!

SEPULTURA – Salzburg (Rockhouse)
Support: Legion Of The Damned/Flotsam And Jetsam/Mortillery
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
23/02/2008:
SONS & DAUGHTERS – Munich (Muffathalle)
Support by the local band called FIVE!FAST!!HITS!!!
This one was a free concert and as I discovered this band from Scotland just a few months before (they recorded a breathtaking debut called „Repulsion Box“ back in 2005). So I wanted to convince myself of the live qualities of the Sons and Daughters. Great performance, but I was a little disappointed about the setlist – no „Iodine“ ….
After the show I bought myself a shirt and Scott Paterson (Guitarist) and David Gow (Drummer) signed some covers for me – thanks!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
23/02/1999:
PROJECT PITCHFORK – Vienna (Szene)
Another example for „before you are sitting at home and watching boring TV shows, you should do yourself a favor and go to a concert“. Nice performing, interesting Goth people and I can remember that the drummer was sitting in a cage during the whole performance at the Szene in Vienna. Anyway – a nice evening but I didn’t become a real fan of this Electro-Wave-Goth band from Germany. I do think that Peter Spilles and his band touring Europe at that time to promote the album „Eon:Eon“ by Project Pitchfork.

When you smile
If my Life was an open Book
From the Steve Wynn tour diary:
„Nothing but good times in Vienna. You want music stories?
Packed show at the Chelsea club, our first actual punk rock club of the tour.
No problem. Our gypsy renegade folk worked there just fine and
it was one of the best shows yet. I hope someone was taping it.“
