Yesterday I went with friends, actually the full Freiwild-team, to see Sigur Rós in Schlachthof, Wiesbaden (Germany). For me it was the second time this summer I saw this spectacular Icelandic band.
At the Rock Werchter festival start of July (2008) they gave one of the best performances I saw there, Radiohead afterwards was like ‘Oh, well’. Yesterday, it was the first time to get intimate with Sigur Rós together with a packed venue, an old slaughterhouse. I don’t know the songs that good to write down a set list, but it was a good mixture of the 3 last albums.
Ólafur Arnalds was supporting act. It was OK, but the only thing I didn’t like were the electronic drums..
Go experience Sigur Rós when you can! Apparently it wasn’t sold out, you guys missed something!
