One thing that struck me was how delicate Thurston's left hand fingers movements were on some DDN titles (the last part of the Sprawl and on the Wonder).

As said above the finale was beautiful (I, too, crave Expressway).
When Kim sung during the very last part, I really liked what Doneda did with his clarinet, responding to her. The instrument-voice response felt quite sweet (this had also eventually happened prior to the songs part).

Meeting boardies felt good too, different personalities, from quiet and cool to energetic and funny.

I need a nap.

I've seen it. I'll share mine as well. Bit later tho. mine is (should b) without error. I was standing in very front. recorded with Net MD MZ-N707 and Sony ECM-MS907 (battery powered).

thanks for the infos!

yeah seeing Steve and later Lee walking by the bar we were sitting in, was quite funny - i told you guys they would turn up!
and on the yelling: i did it on purpuse - its really funny hearing all those people screaming some song names on some recordings and i deffinetly wanted my voice to be archived as well
so now - thanks to greenlight - i can be heard on a legendary recording :D

If they'll release it on SYR be sure to ask to be included in the "credits"! :p;)

Thanks greenlight! I hardly wait to hear it!

EDIT: Does anybody recorded the Peter Brötzmann / Mats Gustafsson set?

I gave a quick listen to Inconnu's recording... the quality is great and the set is killer. For sure one of the best sets of the year. I bet it was a wonderful experience for peaople who attended the gig.

I thought that a drum solo would be a good way to fill the silence. It turned out to be unnecessary, as I filled it myself instead :D

I'm 90% certain that he walked right behind us at the end of the show, but the other 10% stopped me from saying anything at the time.

I didn't. unfortunatelly when we came they've been allready playing.

I forgot to say in my previous posts, a big big thank you to Bertrand for his directions to record stores and for arranging our meet-up.

To Bertrand, Bal, Lalie and Racehorse, it was nice to meet you, and to Greenlight, it was good to see you again.

was it? same here, same here. so maybe we could arrange smth. when Thurson will b in town. I mean, I wish he'll play his TOTA in London before ATP.

Hello boardies, I'm here just for few minutes.
I wasn't sure to have time enough to go to the concert but finally I decided to go. Sorry, I couldn't check the board before, too much work.
A FUCKING GOOD SHOw !!!!
Better than the one I've seen in december 06. The impro part, the DDN and Rather songs, the awsome expressway final....
Something curious : on my right, there was a guy who EXACTLY looked like Mr Porkmarras. Really... at some moments, he was looking at me. i don't know if he was supposed to go.
This concert was mysterious...:D

hehe. no you haven't...at all. it's just right.

Bal. are you here? pm me your adress so I can send you cds (.vaw) from paris show sometime in future when artwork is ready. till now here's mp3 version of it as a little teaser. we start with SY set:

Stehphen. what's the story with your video? i'm dying to see it (and have it).

Tokolosh has a copy of the vid, and is going to compress it, but he's pretty busy at the moment.
