The Drapery Falls z Essen.

Czy tylko mi siê wydaje, ¿e publika jest jaka¶... sztywna?

[Unas]

To w koñcu Niemcy. Ech, nadal nie zauwa¿yli, ¿e najgorêtsza by³aby u nas.

[Luksor]

No to zobaczmy jak by³o w Pary¿u - Advent.

[Callahan]

Cudo... To bardzo nie fair, ¿e nie zagraj± w Polsce... Gdyby powiedzieli, ¿e zagraj± tylko Advent+Funeral Portrait, to ju¿ bym na pewno tam by³. A ca³e BWP... Nie mogê od¿a³owaæ.
Chocia¿ z drugiej strony, gdyby grali teraz, kiedy wybitnie nie mam mo¿liwo¶ci gdziekolwiek siê ruszyæ i musia³bym to omin±æ, to by³oby jeszcze gorsze

[Wujek]

A tak w ogóle, to mi³o znów zobaczyæ Martina z logiczn± d³ugo¶ci± w³osów 

[Luksor]

W londyñskiej Royal Albert Hall tak¿e ten sam jubileuszowy zestaw kompozycji.

FC:  Are you satisfied with the 20th anniversary tour?
M: Extremely satisfied! All of the shows was sold out. I think the Royal Albert Hall had a few minimum seats left but it was advertised as sold out, and I certainly didn’t see any gaps in there. It was packed! Really, that just made this little trek extra memorable. We wanted to celebrate 20 years, the original plan was to have some minor party in a cellar pub or something. But those plans escalated somewhat and next thing we know, we’re going on stage at the Albert Hall.

FC.  Besides playing Blackwater Park, how did you choose the songs?
M: Basically we wanted to make chronological set for the 2nd one. And we picked some of the more obscure songs that we hadn’t played in a long time as well as some of the songs we know are popular, like “The moor”. It’s a song that we’ve played here and there but I personally have never been quite happy with out execution, so it’s been shelved over and over again. Now we picked it up and made a real nice new version of it I think. “Advent” felt like it got a rejuvenation with this line up, but “Forest of October” sounded virtually the same as I could remember it sounded in 1992.

FC:  Many fans wanted “Black Rose immortal”…how close was it?
M: Close. I listened to the song a couple of times and just felt there were too many loose ends, too many parts I didn’t really like anymore, and it would have felt awkward playing something like that. It had been decided we’re going to play that song actually, but with the above reasons plus the fact that I don’t think a lot of people would have recognized it, or even liked it if we’d played it. We changed our minds. I think it’s a little bit of a gimmick that song. It’s “popular” because it’s our longest track, not because it’s all that great. But, I never say never. I think this line up had a tendency to breathe new life into old shit like that. We’ve done it on several occasions, so maybe it would work for this piece as well. However, “Advent” represented the “Morningrise” record better, and we all loved playing it.

FC: Were there any plans of getting ex-members to play at the anniversary-gigs?
M: Not really. There are reasons some of the past guys aren’t in the band anymore, some of which are quite delicate and it’s not a case of us calling eachother up saying “Hey buddy, haven’t talked to ya in 10 years, fancy playing an old song with us?”. I am on good terms with everyone from the past personally, but I don’t hang out with anyone other than Peter on occasion and have a very sporadic contact with Anders and Lopez. Peter had back problems on the night of the Stockholm show and couldn’t come. We didn’t really talk to any of the other guys and they didn’t call us, but we did put them all up on the guest list in case they’d drop by incognito. Some might have been there but I don’t really know.
