The Tempodome Gig itself
Posted: Fri Dec 29, 2006 4:59 am
No one has put their view of the gig down here. I brought my brother with me to his first experiance of TD on September last. I travelled with Conrad,Rosie Dave & my brother from Dublin. It was planned that all the fans would meet up in the Sony Centre area of Berlin also that it would be a close enough walk to the venue. Chistian help organise the location.In fact Christian met us as we arrived in Berlin from our flight.
Always when we travel to a TD gig its more of a great big social meeting where all the fans get together like a family.Anyway we headed to our hotel checked in chilled out then met up just after 4pm & made our way to the meeting point.
It was great to see all the usual suspects again from all over & also the members of the Hungarian fan club in their members t -shirts. Coiln & the UK fans it was a pleasure to meet you all again (a TD gig without them ....Unthinkable). We all had drinks & food here then later made our way to Tempodome. The venue itself was awesome in its construction it stood out from a far as you can see from the DVD cover. The atmosphere was electric...I certainly believe this was our first taste of a change in TD well it was a celebration afterall but the amount of preparation that went into this gig was clearly seen. The merchandise stand was bigger than what I had seen in Shepards bush or astoria. lost of Goodies on offer for the craving fans.
moving into the concert hall it was big with a good sense of well being. Those ballons where doing the rounds again & it was a fairly full hall . Edgar started the concert off with a mouthorgan (Harmonica) intro very effective the the curtains rolled back to give us the full outlay of the stage the rest you can see from the DVD Tempodome.....
Later Colin & the crew got into the bar area where to our surprise we got to meet up with Edgar,Thorsten, Iris & Linda & the lovely Bianca Gerald & Berhard ( the volin guy). hard a few beers here & enjoyed the fan /group member photo sessions ... wew later retired back to our street bar that served to the endless hours fine Beers & wines...Over all Berlin is a wonderful city & has always been a great location for a TD concert..
anyone care to add their experiance of Tempodoame ...
Geoff Oh by the way my brother is truly a Td convert after this great gig
