Notes (from 5H):
Ed performs 'Throw Your Arms Around Me' solo before Dismemberment Plan's
set. This beautiful venue is in the middle of the city square and the band
clearly loves it. People were watching the show from upper windows and
roofs of houses in the area. During the first part of the show, Ed waves
to them and makes jokes about them - he also noted that he could see "some
older folks" too in the windows and gives them a special wave and
greeting.
During 'Daughter,' Ed animates the crowd to sing along to the 'Another
Brick' improvisation: "So ... don't be shy. Sing with me!" The 'WMA' tag
lyric is changed to "white male Austrian." Someone throws something on
stage for Mike and he places it on his amp. Ed asks the crowd if they can
see the moon (it is a full moon tonight!) because the band cannot see it
as it is behind the stage.
The improvisation before 'Present Tense is very cool (lyrics: "I left
home 3 years ago..when I came back I was all alone...") and is just Ed and
Mike solo. (It was suggested this is 'I'm a Boy' but the lyrics don't
match up with the Pete Townshend song ... we'll have to wait to hear it.)
'Present Tense' is also started solo by EV and Mike, then the band joins
in.
Ed drinks from a red wine bottle and sprays some of it into the first rows
after 'Go.' Ed is wearing the monkey mask again during the first song of
the encores. Before 'Even Flow,' Ed comments about the political situation
in Austria, saying that many people had suggested that it would be better
for them not to play there and that they weren't even going to mention it
[we knew this was coming] as the message is in their songs, but to not
play in Austria would be unfair to those who didn't support the government
and he proceeds to give a "double fuck you" pointing both middle fingers
out!
'Thin Air' is introduced as, "I guess this one is particularly nice under
the warm evening sky." Ed smashes the tambourine on his head during
'RITFW' and smashes the mic stand onto the stage at the end of the song.
He returns at the end, taking photos and thanks everyone for coming. A
great outdoor performance!
