Andreas Havlik (who also is the photographer on this page) writes to BtP:
Oh, the first surprise: because we were visiting the concert in Nuremberg at March 26th I truly expected the same songs in the same order. But hey: Procol Harum came up with a very different setlist including Whiskey Train, Simple Sister and my all-time favourite Walpurgis as second encore. Great!!

 

Villa Berg is a very nice place for concerts, incidentally a studio of a radio-station. It was nearly sold out, even though it was the second event in 2003 at this place. The sound was great and the audience enthusiastic from the first song on. I noticed that Geoff was in a very good mood, he was brilliant. Compared with him unfortunately Gary was not supremely good. He was very taciturn, avoided any eye contact to the audience....and he had some serious problems with his voice. I guess, he didn't feel any well. But as a professionell he came through the concert, which was all in all a great event though.

Hope to see him and the band again on November 24th in Bamberg.....on my birthday!
