18-01-2000 What a day!!!!!!

Yesterday was a long long day to our favourite band... and what a day!!!!! It started with a fabulous article where the band is considered a great song maker and even the Lads homepage was mentioned as worth a visit!!!! WE ARE VERY PROUD!!!!! The article was written by Miguel Miranda in "O Comércio do Porto", the whole article is available on the press page. Then, during the whole afternoon, the band recorded the TV program : "Praça da Alegria", where the band played "Attic" and "This is the life", it all happened in a very good mood and some photos are available on the Tourgallery page. After this the band went to Matosinhos to prepare the night gig in Fnac store in Nortshopping. It was filled with people, and the Lads'fans said it was the best concert ever of the band. In fact, the band said it was going to be their last for a long time giving no further explanations to this. Maybe on the next weekend radio program (Radio Clube de Penafiel 91.8FM , next Saturday night the 22nd at about 23h) the band will explain this sad news.
This was the setlist:
Sunflower (with Ricardo on KORG, it was sang and played in a very emotional way)
Melatonine (with Pedro playing on the original ROLAND keyboards of "Better left Unsaid...")
Attic (powerful)
Too many seconds (slight lyric change on the end of each chorus...still as always glamorous)
This is the life (sang with guts, played with nerv)
Waiting (Ricardo assumed this song to be the best Lads song ever and so as the last time to be played live at least for a long time it would be played with emotion...)
Blue Blue Blue (Ricardo started by saying that if anyone wants to understand what the band is saying, they should start by this one... Pedro introduced some new sounds from the Korg which revealed a new dimension to the song)
Panic in the park / Boy (These two songs finished the concert, they were played powerfully and Rui was superb with drumming (as always). Luís fooled around with the bass during Panic in the Park, turning it more delicious... meanwhile Paulo gave a different ending to boy as well as he did to Blue Blue Blue... Boy ended with Ricardo stabbing himself with the micro...)
It was a superb concert and the photos are available here!
