Re: Pawns & Kings – post release reactions & user reviews
So, I recently have created ranked playlists for my favourite bands. Two P&K songs have made it into my top 10: Fable at 3 (behind Blackbird and Words), and Last Man Standing at 6. I don't think the new album could've done much better. Also, Sin After Sin is still the only song that I can't real...

Re: August US Tour 2023 with Sevendust and Mammoth WVH Opening
Saw a video of Fable. Sounded amazing, but holy shit, what the hell was wrong with the crowd? Is that normal for gigs in the US or was this an exception? It was COMPLETELY dead. Really hope that they won't drop Fable like they did with Show Me A Sign because of lackluster reactions, I want them to p...

Re: 11-11-2022 - Columbiahalle, Berlin, Germany
Thanks! Only 16 songs sadly, they didn't play This Is War, which I absolutely don't understand, but it was great nonetheless. Myles seemed a lot more active, and Pawns & Kings is AMAZING live!

I'll be there tonight. Setlist on setlist.fm will be updated although I don't really expect many surprises, to be honest. I guess they'll rotate another song in for the Brand New Start slot.

Re: 11-07-22 - Międzynarodowe Centrum Kongresowe, Katowice, Poland
I get what you're saying. I, actually prefer Lover over Sin After Sin by far. But man, they're only playing 4 of the new album and they drop one of the new ones. It's really disappointing. Sorry this is like a fight of my own, it really upsets me to see bands no longer care about their new albums. ...

Re: 11-07-22 - Międzynarodowe Centrum Kongresowe, Katowice, Poland
How in the world it's an improvement, removing a new song from the set? Lover or other rarity is more than welcome but change it for any other over-played song. They should play more and more the new stuff... And where are the other 7 songs from the (interrupted) Walk the Sky tour that they didn't ...

Lover over Sin After Sin is SUCH A MASSIVE IMPROVEMENT. I hope they do something similar in Berlin, I really, really don't need to see Sin After Sin live. Also glad they re-introduced Pawns & Kings.

Re: 11-05-22 - Sentrum Scene, Oslo, Norway
This is beyond disappointing... 16 songs? Only three from the new album? I can only imagine that either Myles isn't feeling very well or they have time issues (because of the curfew).

Re: 11-05-22 - Sentrum Scene, Oslo, Norway
I'm really on the fence concerning Stay live because Myles' vocals in the chorus seem reeeeally hard to pull off, so I could imagine them either not playing it at all, or him not singing along, which would completely ruin the song to me because it's precisely what makes the chorus great in my ears. ...

Re: 11-04-22 - Partille Arena, Partille, Sweden
The sets keep getting worse. Native Son is one of their worst tracks to me, no Watch Over You again, no new song from P&K.

Re: 11-01-22 - Alsterdorfer Sporthalle, Hamburg, Germany
I strongly disagree (as in I feel differently, not as in your opinion is wrong of course)! Both songs are significantly more emotional to me in a live setting with the crowd singing along, plus the band not getting in the way allows Myles to really shine vocally because he doesn't have to hold his g...

Re: Pawns & Kings Tour - Setlist Predictions
That's kind of the problem I believe. The amount of people coming to those shows that aren't hardcore fans is pretty high, and those people usually are most familiar with the most popular songs (i.e. singles or songs that otherwise got a lot of exposure), and they EXPECT to hear these songs live. If...

Re: 11-02-22 - Falconer Salen, Copenhagen, Denmark
Phew, I hope they won't do that in Berlin. I love Ghost, and Broken Wings is a massively overrated song to me. That said, I know how many fans love it, so it's understandable they rotated it in. Really, really hope they don't replace Ghost though, and just move it to the encore and play 19 songs ins...

Re: 11-01-2022 - Alsterdorfer Sporthalle, Hamburg, Germany
Yeah, it also looks very stale. Maybe they didn't rehearse it properly enough. The energy is also lacking. It absolutely is! I mean, this is their FIRST song of their FIRST show in 1 1/2 years (not counting the pre-listening party), but it feels like the last show of a very tiring tour. Hoping that...

Re: 11-01-2022 - Alsterdorfer Sporthalle, Hamburg, Germany
Is it me or does Myles look kinda uncomfortable playing that song, maybe because he's not all that familiar with it yet? He seems VERY concentrated on singing and playing and doesn't really have any crowd interactions at all (including just... LOOKING at the crowd).

Re: Ranking 'The Epics'
It's actually not that easy to decide which songs qualify as epics. To me it's a mixture of length and atmosphere, i.e. those songs need to have this "special" feeling about them that makes them stand out from the typical AB songs, which does NOT necessarily mean that they're better. They'...
