Setlist and a tour diary entry on Frankfurt by Mike (when he writes Rhine he means Main, hint: Frankfurt=Mainhattan 'cos of the high bank buildings). The concert was good. Very intimate. Like the Amazon flowing slowly and majestically into the Atlantic. Margo's pure and at the same time sensual voice is maybe even more beautiful than it used to be, Mike did some expressive extended guitar improvisation on a Robert Johnson cover and there was at least one person dancing in the church. I must admit though that over the course of the two hour concert I found the songs a little samey and got slightly tired of them. Blame it on my lack of patience and my yearning for variety.

Next stop on their tour is the Passionskirche in Berlin on Sunday. Be warned, tickets are rather expensive with almost 30 euros.

P.S. I didn't expect them to play their great VU cover Sweet Jane but I was slightly disappointed that they didn't play any song from Lay it Down. My personal fave of theirs. The most pop but also the most touching of their albums. And I have all of them 'cept the one before One Soul Now.
