review by Marco

Last date in Italy at Vidia near Cesena. The Club is overflowing with people and just now I can't realize that year by year Mark's music isn't more a cult for few close friends like from the time of Whiskey.

Tonight it's the turn of Mike to open the show and his exhibition is truly amazing: like two days ago I can hear (now it's the second time and so I can recognize the melodies) his new songs and I think they are darkly and intriguing as his best compositions. The gig terms with Eclipse, terrific song from Year Of Mondays.

Compared to yesterday, the Vidia show is very similar (same songs in the same order, same encores, same beautiful rage and persuading interpretation), also if I can note some little smudge (for example the beginning of On Jesus Program is completely wrong but, maybe to pay back, Mark launches out into the better performance of the night, screaming with a broken voice).
