Wave Gotik Treffen at Haus Leipzig last night DF5527FF-15DD-4C76-BB8E-06D9EB953590.MP4

Closed Wave Gotik Treffen 2019 at Haus Leipzig. By the end I think we had the crowd on side.....here they are after the first encore. 49F34054-3A8A-4323-9827-42CB9D52CCC4.MP4

I flipping love this hobby. even if I do end up drinking too much free booze!

A difficult festival crowd to win over but I reckon we did it. Leipzig is mental.

Awesome night

Time for soundcheck

Mini bus was waiting...now en route to Leipzig

Local time quoted in all cases. guess I’ll find out later as today is the day

At least they’re up front about it.

Half surprised this thread hasn't descended into yet another series of cheese puns, given the gouda like headstock.

Luckily we're not using the train - although I've had nothing but good experience on Deutsche Bahn, the trains are clean and comfortable compared to UK trains. The shuttle I mention is a mini-bus.

This claims it's 'REAL' from 2004 with 54 of them in stock!! https://www.howtoprepandsurvive.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=22827

Just had the itinerary through for Wave Gotik Treffen in Leipzig this weekend. We're flying out to Berlin and then getting shuttled to Leipzig. Our flight is scheduled to land in Berlin at 17.25 Our shuttle to Leipzig is scheduled to collect us from Berlin at 14.15 - before we've even taken off from UK! So the itinerary falls at the first hurdle....... and here I am thinking the Germans are efficient and good organisers....

Don't forget to factor in the cost of work visas and research the process for applying for them - it can take time. Our US visas took 3 months

60% of the door is pretty normal

60% of the door

Can't really post them here or I wouldn't have forgotten about them.

That's why we use fibre connections and kit like the S3 is so expensive.....lag is minimised. Shows project or display 'live' streams on LED walls all the time these days - have you never been to a stadium show? I've worked in show video for 10 years now. It needs specialist knowledge to operate too.

I work for a video equipment dealer (sales and rental) PM me and I could put you in touch with a specialist.

You need some expensive kit to do that - apart from the projector, you'd need something like a Barco S3 and an event controller (EC20/50) .

Reggae Led Zeppelin with a Las Vegas Elvis impersenator singing.... was quite surprised in your last vid to hear The Kinks and The Who and no sign of the ska heard in the other videos...yet.

I'll wager you guys are fans of Dread Zeppelin - no offence intended. You're like the Ska version!
