It was a great show! Wrightegaarden is a quite small venue, but I didn't feel like a negative thing - In fact, it rather felt like it made a really good connection between band and audience (James commented on it in the lines of "We've never played on a place like this before", they seemed to enjoy themselves though). The only negative thing was that I couldn't here the singing or the guitar solos too well, probably this was only a problem where I stood (second row).

The setlist (no surprises here):
False Awakening Suite (intro tape)
Afterlife
Metropolis pt.1
Caught In A Web
ACOS part II: Innocence
Burning My Soul
The Spirit Carries On
About To Crash
As I Am
Panic Attack
Bridges In The Sky
Behind The Veil

The opening act, Pagans Mind, put on a really good set too!

From what you could hear, how was James doing? He was pretty sick about a week ago, but I've watched a couple more recent video and it's looking like he's recovering alright! Do you confirm this?

Overall I think he did great, he nailed the most higher notes/parts. I heard some cases where he didn't hit the right note, but they were actually in a lower range, so maybe they weren't related to the previous sickness at all (I noticed that he had some troubles with the in-ear monitoring early in the set, maybe it was causing trouble later in the set also).

So, hopefully he's recovering well. At least he looked happy.

Can we confirm the screen(s) is (are) defintely gone?
What the hell happened? Where they only available in Eastern Europe? Maybe the local agency promoting the tour supplied them only in those 3 locations where they were used?

There were no screens, and the drumkit was a little smaller (the third bass drum was gone, and I didn't see any digital drum pads).

Only 2 bands on the bill yet the setlist was the same? Damn, doesn't look good for the Helsinki show...
