Sound: Cedric, the singer, sounded great of course, he never missed a note. Other than Cedric and Omar, they had their usual drummer, bass player and keyboard player. There was also a guy who played random percussion things, a guy who played saxaphone and some flute and also random percussion things, and a guy who I assume did the sound effects and all the other random sounds. // 10
Perfomance: Here's the setlist:
01. Cygnus... Vismund Cygnus
02. L'Via L'Viaquez
03. The Widow
04. Drunkship Of Lanterns
They were opening for System Of A Down so they only played a few songs. They came on to this really long trumpet song, they eventually walked out and picked up their instruments and blasted into Cygnus. In between songs they would improvise for a few minutes before going into the next song. They had this backdrop at first that looked like a monster with a bunch of eyes all over it or something, but on the first note of Drunkship Of Lanterns it fell revealing a backdrop with this line design that was like an optical illusion and looked really cool with different lights shining on it. It also had the bird guys from the L'Via L'Viaquez video with naked guys over their knees on the sides, kinda weird. The first 3 song were basically the same as on the CD, but Drunkship Of Lanterns went into a whole bunch of different stuff and then came back for the huge finish, the song was probably like 20 minutes long. There was another guy right by me singing along with the songs, I managed to push right to the front of the stage to see them. // 10
Impression: The show was at Rexall Place on September 20th. I really hope they come back on a headlining tour. No compaints. // 10
