"A fine concert overall (but aren’t we used to ithose?) with some minor changes compared to the show in Luxembourg a week before. First of all, Someimes I feel Like Screaming replaced Wasted Sunsets: as much as I love the former (with its full instrumental ending, that is!), being able to hear the latter in concert is a rare treat. So, mixed feelings there. Secondly, a great solo from Don – exit Star Wars, enter beautiful passages of Chopin. Plus, a nice organ/guitar duel during the encores. Again (and again, and again...), pity about the setlist based on Machine Head and Fireball without being too adventurous. For me Space Truckin’ and Lazy have lost their charm for now. A new song wouldn’t hurt either – I can’t agree with the band’s comments about YouTube spoiling things for them. It’s hard to come to terms with the fact that our favourite band isn’t very much looking into the future at the moment. A word about merchandising: of course it’s nice to buy some autographed CD’s but why is there only solo stuff available (in Cologne: All Out, If Life Was Easy, One Eye To Morocco and Live in Anaheim)? I noticed a lot of people asking for DP albums (seems logical at a DP show). Why not sell them with autographs of the entire band? Also, overpriced black hoodies with zippers sewn on the wrong side are, well, crap. Enough moaning, it was great to see the guys in good shape. I hope to see the band next summer with a refreshed repertoire.
