Sacred Metal-Board

I'd like to officially introduce the line-up for our KEEP IT TRUE performance...

Can't wait to return to KIT and see everyone again. See you all in a few short weeks!

Interesting to read.

Looking forward to hearing „The Twisted Cross”, “Imprisoned” and “R.O.T.” 

So Chad Smith finally got vacation from the Chili Peppers to grow a beard, long hair and play Anacrusis?

And who is the guy in the front?

Sorry, bad joke, I know...

That's what you're well known for...!

...if you have to ask....

Can't help myself worrying about the setlist (Remember the Monty Python's: I'm so worried about the luggage transport system at London Heathrow...)

This is a hard choice, Here's my guess/wish:

Sound The Alarm
Blood In The Water
Dancing With The Past
Unnecessary Evil
Stop Me
The Telling Skies
Symbiotic
Untouchable
Something Real
Brotherhood?

We won`t let these guys walk out alive without playing "Fighting Evil"!

Right. I forgot Imprisoned, Grateful, I love the world and A Little Light as well. Life can be cruel. Somebody should place them higher on the Billing!

Well, the setlist is always tricky especially when the artist/band is doing a 'solo" gig and has an entire back-catalog with their old band to consider. We only have an hour at KIT (volcanic eruptions not withstanding), so with 4 Anacrusis albums and a "new" album that is 2 1/2 hours in length there were plenty of tough decisions for me to make. Also, since we are not playing as "Anacrusis" (in spite of half of the Manic line-up playing) we do want to focus a bit more on my newer material this time, especially considering most of the audience is made up of repeat visitors to the festival and so many already saw Anacrusis play 80 minutes of old material just 6 years ago.

We will play a few Anacrusis favorites for sure, but also several tracks from the new album. I know most people like to be surprised so I won't spoil it by saying exactly which songs. I am already prepared to dodge rotten vegetables thrown by the Suffering Hour fans since I am afraid we will focus more on the later Anacrusis material this time. Sorry about that, but the Anacrusis 2010 appearance was pretty heavy on earlier material since it was the original lineup. There is only space for a certain number of songs and this time I will bring some thing a bit different. The guys and I tried many different songs over the last few months and some just work better live than others, so we decided on works best for the overall show. There are many more I would have liked to include, but in the end it always comes down to compromise.

...I don't think "A Little Light" would go over so well at KIT, haha....but come to one of the club gigs and you just might get a nice surprise

Uh oh...beg Oli to give us 64 minutes and we will play it.

Kenn, you just need to find out the songs Oli wont let you leave the stage without having played them.

I'm pretty sure that "A Little Light" would go well at K.I.T.

However, it seems that I'll be able to be there in Feldkirch, too.

Cool. We are really looking forward to playing with the Mayfair guys.

And myself will take a ride to the Gig at Rheine in Germany. That's 200 km, maybe 130 miles.
Sounds funny? You don't know German Autobahn. Los Angelas Freeway at rushhour is more easy to drive.

For the show at Rheine: "Hypotalamus". It is advertised as an "early" show, whatever that means. Please be sure: lots of the audience got to go to work other day, and i now about others how got to drive far more miles than me.

Thanks for doing Clubshows however.
