Live In Berlin - BBC Big Band

In a Big Country Dreams Stay with You

Advantages: It's Big Country - Live and at their very best
Disadvantages: It's less than an hour long

Big Country - Without The Aid of a Safety Net Big Country was the first band I ever saw live. It took a lot of cajoling and persuasion before my parents allowed me to head down to Ingleston, just outside Edinburgh with my then-boyfriend and two friends. I was sixteen and I still vividly remember that adventure. And the gig itself. I was totally blown away. Live music was where it was at, I suddenly realised; the noise, the heat of the crowd, the pogo-ing...Trust my luck I lived in Inverness where there were no decent venues for live bands at that time! I saw Big Country live on several subsequent occasions, and each time I was just as impressed as that very first time. I remember seeing them play at Legends, a small nightclub in Dingwall, north of Inverness, when the support band cancelled ...

Review of Without The Aid Of A Safety Net (Live At Glasgow Barrowland 1993) - Big Country

Live Aus Berlin - Rammstein

Advantages: 17 songs (Long performance), special features and just a fantastic experience
Disadvantages: No Wollt Ihr Das Bett In Flammen Sehen on the playlist.

A really good live DVD of the german heavy metal legends. Contains pretty much all pre-mutter songs. Including the sehnsucht album as well as the Herzeleid album. It also contains a one off song called Wilder Wein which is more of a gentle/soft song. (Still good!). The DVD I have contains 17 songs all together and some of the performances, if not all, are just absolutley brilliant. Every song comes alive and with features such as Multicamera Mode which allows you to watch each member of the band throughout a few of the songs it's fantastic. You would swear that you are actually there! It's also got a fan contest in which you can unlock a secret video. The only problem I had with this DVD was the fact that it did not contain the Wollt Ihr Das Bett in Flammen Sehen?. It's available in the uncensored version but I think that's only ...

Review of Rammstein - Live Aus Berlin (DVD)

Berlin! Berlin!

Advantages: Germany's capital and most interesting city
Disadvantages: a bit too large, distances too long

the West and the Brandenburger Tor in the East, a double line of granite stones in the asphalt shows where the Wall was, all tourists want to know, understandably the Berliners are not so keen. The area in front of it (on the western side) is the place where Berliners meet for spontaneous manifestations or outdoor parties, when I was there this year at the beginning of October, Coca Cola was organising a gigantic spectacle on the 2nd and 3rd October with live bands, 500.000 spectators were expected. October 3rd is the national holiday commemorating reunification, nice to see that it was celebrated with music and not speeches. Standing in front of the Brandenburger Tor we turn to the right and walk down the street for about 200m until we come to the much debated Memorial for the Murdered Jews of Europe which was opened to the public in 2005 ...
