Notes

Recorded live in "Stodola" club, Warsaw on 29 February 2004.
First one in series of the official live recordings from the concerts, packaged and sold right after the show in little, exclusive amount.
This album was intended to include 2CDs (the whole concert), but due to some technical problems only one left.
CD has 59 one-minute tracks, so every one song consist of few tracks, like 01-04 etc.
And sometimes one song ends and the next begins in the same track. (like 05-06, next: 06-22 etc.)

"Dead Friends" & "Ein Leichtes Leises Säuseln" are cut.

Review by nothinger Mar 01, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

It has been exactly a year ago (well, concert took place on 29 February, but this day appears only 1 time for 4 years, so it's like today, on the 1st March, it's year after ;)), but I remember it like it was yesterday - great concert. This was their first visit in Poland - strange, that in 24 years of their existence they cannot manage to get here before. Anyway, I was a big EN fan and after that gig I've become even bigger. They played almost all songs from promoted "Perpetuum Mobile" album (without "Boreas" and "Der Weg ins Frei") - stunning performances of "Selbsportrait mit Kater" (which begins the whole performance, after Blixa's speech about why they can't get to Poland before - nobody believed him anyway ;) - with nice intro in Polish :) ; unfortunatelly, this first song is not on the CD), "Dead Friends", "Grundstück" and especially "Perpetuum Mobile", wchich is a whole lot better live than studio. Of course, old "classics" can't be omitted too - "Haus der Lüge", which was probably the highlight, and one big surprise, only one time played before (and that was two days before Warsaw show, in Moscow) "Neun Arme" - very old (above 20 years) one, in completely new, great arrangement. I was really impressed.
Too bad that due to technical problems not even the half of the concert is on that - great anyway - CD. Not to mention technical glitches, which can be very annoying (especially in ""Haus der Lüge"). But after all the whole thing is in my memory, and it alwasy be, I hope. :)
