Media coverage from Norwegian Wood yesterday
There was an audience of 5-6000 people attending the festival. Ando Woltman appeared on lead vocal on Going Home, originally written by his band King Midas. 100 Norwegian choir boys from Sølvguttene & St. Halvard guttene assisted the band on a special live version of Isabel. The whole show was taped on by four 35mm cameras for release on DVD sometime in November. In addition there were a full TV crew filming the event live feed for internet.
The following coverage appeared from the gig last night. The reviewers seemed overall happy, but some of them commented on the lack of surprises and lack of something extraordinary. Lack of choir sound for large parts of the audience on the Isabel 100 choir boys assisted version and an unfocused guest lead on Going Home was other comments… :
