Up next is a show from 2008, where Editors played at the Taubertal Festival in Germany. This was the running order and stage times on the day:-
The Hives 22:50
Fettes Brot 20:50
Editors 19:15
Panteón Rococó 17:40
Slut 16:05
Lily Electric 14:30
They obviously felt like a change on the night, subtly altering the arrangement of Blood. If you're used to listening to the song repeatedly, then you'll spot the new flourishes of Chris' guitar and the moment when both he and Tom drop away to just leave King Leetch's bass, Ed's drums and the vocals.
The fact that this was a professionally recorded radio broadcast means that the mix of this show is really clear, very much so in songs like Escape the Nest, You Are Fading and An End Has a Start when you can really hear the parts of Mr Lay's drumming that sometimes get lost in the noise. Also, as with most Editors gigs involving Mr Urbanowicz, the guitar work sounds suitably filthy and off-centre. And that intro to When Anger Shows is still blissful to listen to. Also, as this is an artifact from the latter part of the AEHAS campaign, you get to hear Open Up again which is never a bad thing, I reckon.
Below you'll find a stream of the entire set, some mp3s and a collection of all the photos that were posted on the official Taubertal website at the time. Enjoy the music ;)
