Thanks for watching my video. I gathered all the videos I shot at this concert in a RU-vid playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PLwdc0qZNx0tYLzohIA1ySG1rAF6b-A2Cu. The songs are Bright Leaves, Random Name Generator, I Am Trying To Break Your Heart, Kamera, Laminated Cat, Impossible Germany, Forget The Flowers, Love Is Everywhere, Box Full Of Letters, Born Alone, Jesus Etc., Heavy Metal Drummer, I'm The Man Who Loves You, Poor Places, Reservations, and I'm A Wheel. Enjoy!
I've seen them play Impossible Germany seven or eight times and Nels always plays his solo very differently every time. He truly improvises each time and explores and sees where it goes. I love that he's willing to take that risk because although sometimes his solo is "merely" very good, there are times when it goes into the stratosphere and beyond. That's the payoff for taking the risk he takes each time he plays this song.
My youngest daughter who's 21 now grew up listening to this, she never paid it much attention. She now has the most incredible taste in music and I think she loves this.
All I can say is WOW! Living in Brooklyn I'm lucky to catch Nels Cline play pretty often and in intimate settings too. I always come away impressed however this performance is in the stratosphere. Thank you so much for posting. You made my night!
Last gig in Alicante Nels changed completely the solo, and the tune was or almost 8 minutes, and Pat made an incredible back solo to. It's just amazing.
Solo is a great balance between sublime virtuosity and losing your head there for a second. Then the other two guitars unite while Nels goes batshitcrazy. Can watch these live versions forever.
Hi amiina, I managed to get at least 8 good videos at this show, so I'll be posting some more in the coming days (in addition to the 3 songs I already did). Feel free to subscribe to my channel so RU-vid can let you know when I do. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. 😊
