In support : the Al
Harmoniah Brass Band, that did covers for half a dozen Venus songs (including
Ballroom as in the Perfect Lover EP).
For
this concert, Venus was accompanied by an orchestra and by Belgian singer Sharko,
who played guitar for most of the show (instead of Marc), and even played one
of his songs in solo. During the second half of the gig, the guys tried a first
"symphonic" version of some of their songs with the "orchestra"
(brass ans strings).
There was a screen behind the stage : during Royalsucker,
a video of Eisenstein's Battleship
Potemkine has been broadcasted (the slaughter on the stairs scene), and during
Don't say... there was a kind of family video (the wedding one can see
on the Don't say... CD single).
Many
thanks to Laurent V. (these notes are a quite lazy translation of his review).
