In ten years time I am sure that a lot of girls in their mid tweenties will look back upon last night’s concert and remember their first concert with a twist of overwhelmedness in their heart and at the same time an eagerness to fully remember the great feeling they experienced. Because last night’s concert with Mew was indeed one to remember!
There are a few things I really think needs to be told about last night. First of all, the sound last night was in my ears perfect. Mew’s music is fairly fragile and what-ever-the-lead-singer-is-called’s voice is even more fragile. I would have imagined that his voice would have disappeared in the music, but it didn’t at all - a perfect match. Secondly the music had the perfect balance of guitar, bass, synthesizer, and drums. The sound was truely great and very true to the sound that we know from their latest album.
The stage and the show as such was in some ways very beautiful and other ways too depressing and over done when the music is taken into concideration. I do not myself associate Mew’s music to doll with blood coming out of their mouths, scary kitty cats and teddybears, terrifying imaginary fish, pictures of screaming people and the like - almost all in very melancholy colours. Maybe it is just because I don’t get what it is all about, but I do actully find their music pretty amazing and beautiful, and I don’t relate it to sad moods at all. Deep thoughtfull moods - but not sad moods.
Nevertheless some of the pictures on the back curtain were very beautiful and amazing (why did the curtain go up and down all the time?). Totally overdimensioned and impressive. I don’t think I am able to explain how pretty it was, but it was! Especially their season pictures of snow coming down, a night skye full of stars, trees in the Fall with all their brownish colours and the like. Veeeery nice!
On the less impressive side about last night it must be said that with two albums in their bagpack a band should be able to play more than some what 75 minutes! And maybe the boys should work a little on their interaction with the audience. Not a lot is said or told on stage. I guess that it is an individual thing, but I do like it when the band is telly stories or just introducing at least some of the numbers they are playing.
Anyways it was a brilliant evening, a fantastic concert and all I can say is that you should definitely have been there! Thanks to Malene for inviting me and making my evening one to remember!
