inanedirkI just got back from an awesome concert - best of the albums Mirror and Numb, plus Someone Else. The final song was an Iron Maiden cover I think, but since I don't recall any of the lyrics I can't search for it.
Now, what's really sad about it, is this: There were around 30 people attending. With a ticket price of less than 12€ the band are not exactly making a fortune performing live. I guess we should be glad that they're doing it for fun anyway.
Some random facts: Half of Sylvan were present in the audience. They're friends with RPWL I guess.
I need to listen to their stuff one of these days. They're supposed to be real good too.
I spotted several interesting T-Shirts. Blind Ego ones of course, but also a Dream Theater one, a Steven Wilson - Insurgentes one, and a 2006 Arriving Somewhere Porcupine Tree tour shirt ... I still can't get over the fact that I spent my birthday that year trashing my kite instead of seeing them live. Well. I didn't know them back then ... but anyway ... ):
