Wovenhand (cirque royal, Brussels, 7-5-2009)

I have always wanted to see 16 Horsepower live but I never had the chance and now they don't exist anymore...
Luckily front-man David Eugène Edwards has started a new project called Wovenhand which is much alike! And I finally had the chance to see them live this may at "les nuits"!

We've never been to the Cirque Royal so we didn't know what to expect from the venue. It is a very nice cirque-like theater but (and this is a big but!) the sound wasn't very good. It was too loud for one (that got a bit better by the end) and that drowned out much of the subtleties of the music.
The concert was pretty good, some parts even brilliant but because of the sound sadly only 4 stars.
But still I'm glad I've seen and heard David Eugène Edwards perform because it's pretty special!
