Do., 24. Apr. – Lovex, Poets of the Fall, 1 Giant Leap, The Giant Leap, Manboy

...Poets in Germany, one year later. We have a new, great album, and the Poets were coming to Berlin again to show off some of their new stuff.

But first the desperate handful (at least the ones wearing the official merchandise ;)) of fans had to handle Manboy who were surprisengly better as everyone thought.

But when the curtain went up for our most favorite band the Columbia Club crowd went crazy, the overall mood was great.

The boys pld lots of stuff of the new album: Revolution Roulette, The Ultimate Fling, Diamonds For Tears, Psychosis and More (the song I really hated until seen and felt live in action). Some "old" stuff was played too: Carnival of Rust, Locking Up The Sun, Lift and Late Goodbye ...of course.

The concert was about an hour and like I said, a great experience. Unfortunatly there was no meet 'n greet this time and the boys sold most of the merchandise in Russia, so there wasn't much to get there. But since Marco threw several stuff in the crowd over and over I think it was forgivable...

PotF - Gig @ Berlin, 2007-03-24

Tue, 27 Mar 2007 08:40:45 +0000

Sa., 24. Mär. – Poets of the Fall, Sunrise Avenue

Okay, to sum it up, Poets of the Fall is one of the greatest Bands ever seen in a concert as it was their fanbase (including me).
Introduced as "special guests" for the finnish (mainstream) newcomers "Sunrise Avenue", who were the main gig this evening, they blew away the concert with just a felt handful of fans. In the end I think many "Sunrise Avenue" fangirls were converted to the Poets tribe.
The aftershow meeting with handshakes, autographs and photos was another cool bonus. Thanks Poets for (one of) the greatest 60 minutes of my life.
Since "Sunrise Avenue" sucked that hard, we left the hall after a few songs, after the big start with PotF the whole crowd seemed disappointed and the atmosphere level sank to radio-standard (haha!).

Songs played (not in order!):

Lift
Late Goodbye
Gravity
Carnival of Rust
Fire
Locking up the Sun
Sorry Go 'Round
Delicious
Everything Fades

And here some impressions we bootleg... uhm recorded :)
