What a phantastic night - what an awesome gig.
It took more than 2 years to see Dub Fx again after that two day special in 2014.
I was not satisfied with their venue-selection. Two gigs years before with a bad accoustic made me feel sceptical that this gig would sound better but in the end I was instructed better.
My job day ended as normal at 8pm when I arrived at home. I prepared myself for the gig (only neccassary´things were in my pockets). I arrived there a quater before 9pm when Andy V was making some good beats & grooves on the stage - also playing his sax. It took some time to get something to drink but than I found a good place on the right side - on the two steps stage where the bar was located.
It was exactly 9:05pm when Dub FX (the band) was coming on stage. A bass player - sorry, forget his name, Dub FX in the center and Andy V on the right side. Later on - after some songs - also a rapper - once again sorry, don't know his name - came out and performed together with Dub FX.
The first songs were from the new record - first song was "Birds and the bees" which I was recording. I can't remember which of his songs he was playing but after listening to the records later on I think the songs listed below were played. Some of his famous songs like "Love someone", "Sooth your pain" or "Made" were played as a kind of medley
After 1 and a half hour they left the stage but came back after some minutes or rather Dub FX himself was staying alone on stage and performed "Love me or not" without big sound drum&bass. After this he was talking about consciousness and energy in the hall and how it would flow from one to another. He asked us to sit down so everyone was following his wish and were sitting down before the music was getting louder and everyone was jumping up.
They played some more songs, so short after 11pm this wonderful awesome gig was over and as I was looking around. Everyone of the people there left the venue with happy feelings. Me, too. And when I was coming out - "The rain was gone".
Here are the songs, I think Dub FX was playing:
Birds and the Bees Road to Babylon Heat Wave So Are You Beaming Light Fake Paradise Searching (Benjamin’s favorite song of the new record) sooth your pain love someone society gates wandering love fly with me flow future intensions step on my trip made not cool In my Head Prove me wrong Colours Run Senorita The Sky Dont give up
Encore: Love me or not + some more songs from this list
Two short selfmade videos
