    Wow! This was my twelfth show and the fourth one of this tour (after amsterdam 1 & 2 and werchter), and for me personally it might have been the best, although i have to reflect a little more on that since i've only began to realize what i saw in Amsterdam.

    After Werchter i was a little disappointed because of the very standard setlist, although it was a really good show. But yesterday in that somewhat medieval setting, those beautiful songs as low light, amongst the waves, nothing man,... We were first row on mikes side, and the sound was incredible. Eddies voice was in the best shape i ever heard live. Of course breath was a real treat and black was hauntingly beautiful. They also said they loved to play there and almost begged for an invite the next time they will be touring europe.

    Before breath eddie gave a little speech on the formation of the band and jeff and stone were playing together for almost thirty years. When eddie introduced the band, Boom was missing so when he got to his spot eddie said "aha, there he is, smoking pot on the job?". Really funny.

    Anyway, what a show, can't wait for the bootleg and for berlin!

    Really cool that they rocked the Festival this year after all the negative Reviews for the 2010 show in Arras! I also dig the setlist very much! The encore is fairly standard (exception is Breath) but the Mainset seems very well ballanced, even Arms Aloft seems fitting! Hoping they'll revisit Wishlist in either Prague, Berlin or Copenhagen! 8-)

    This sounds like it was a great festival show. Very good setlist that looks like it really fitted in with the surroundings. Betterman so early must have been nice and songs like Nothingman, Black and Low Light are great outdoors. I'd say this looks like the best festival setlist since Bonnaroo. Very happy those in attendance got a night like this... :D

    After the Wrechter review and the 2010 Arras review, I was expecting something more standard (better than nothing).

    Actually, it was awesome. I didn't expect such a great setlist for a festival.

    Thanks a lot guys. :D

    Same here. All I heard was expect a short set and an apathetic crowd. We got just the opposite. Awesome show. We went to both Amsterdam shows and the energy and quality of this show was right up there with those amazing shows. The weather ended up working out nicely and we were able to work our way close - about 4 rows in front of Stone. The pit was rocking all night. When they played Lukin the pit just about exploded. Great time. Loved the town of Arras as well. Great venue and the sound was awesome. Wish we could keep going but have to return home soon.
