HW: Middlesbrough

[Keith Henderson]

Hi folx...

Wow...great gig!  In fact, perhaps the best  since 1989.  Mostly the same as Xmas show, but with a few changes  that made a huge difference.  Most notably, an excellent  version of Paradox, featuring two lead breaks by Dave.  And that middle bridge section with the fractured bass riffs from Alan was monster.  Nice e-piano intro from Jason too.  Also, A&B/Golden Void back too, this time with Where R They Now? coda piece.  Angels of Death was faster and therefore more lively.  Dancers were the same, but better practiced and with some new routines, eg., martial arts bit during Sword of the East.  Nice old opera house with high ceiling, though stage is now shortened so that backdrop was actually rather fairly low.  All members in a good mood.  Spacehead were solid as opening act.  Dumpy was there too, and guested on Bstorm and Silver Machine.  No new merchandise to speak of.  The xmas single is for sale again though.  Crowd could have been larger (300-350?), but it was nice to have some
 space to move around and choose your own view.  Off to Sheffield tomorrow..Grakkl (FAA)
