Editors - Live at Rock Werchter 30th June 2006

Please note that the picture quality is exactly as it was when this show was streamed, unfortunately. in 2006 the internet was still learning how to stream and so we weren't quite up to 4K standard just yet ;)
This one's for the fans over the water in Belgium. As I'm sure I've said before, Belgian fans are crazy-enthusiastic in their love for Editors and Werchter crowds have really taken them to their collective hearts over the years. Here's a chance to experience the band's 2006 appearance at Werchter, where they played a set heavy with tracks off The Back Room. Looking back on this stuff I'm once again struck at how good those early songs are. I love how Fall starts out so softly and then ends so aggressively, and the way that Chris bends the notes while Tom almost doubles-up playing his guitar. Camera is a reminder of what happens when the band take another look at a song that was in essence another fast guitar track in its early years, before maturing into the form it took on the Back Room. All drama and slow burning, and it's beautiful.
At the time, Bones was still unreleased and the Werchter 2006 performance is maybe second only to the Hultsfred recording in terms of its passion and the energy that the band put into it. Ahhhhhh, those additional "Retreats!". You also get a chance to hear their cover of Talking Heads' Road to Nowhere towards the end of the set. All of this and there's a short video interview with Tom and Ed by way of bonus material. Enjoy the music ;)

I was there, great show, glad I got up early to get to know them better. They were really getting started. I think they opened main stage that day, or were second... I remember it being a really really hot day. In between songs he mentions it 'Jesus, what a day'.
