Editors - Grape Festival 15th August 2014

Описание: Next on the agenda is Editors' slot at Grape Festival in 2014. First thing to mention is that there were some serious onstage technical problems which led to a delay between the end of Sugar and Munich. It happens just as Mr Lockey is unleashing one of his guitar parts, and the effect is that it's so powerful it knocks out the voltage for the entire stage. Can you imagine what would have happened if the song Hallelujah (So Low) had been on the setlist in 2014? The tastiness of that riff in that one would have led to a countrywide blackout for sure.

There was a 20 minute gap in the live stream as the band left the stage, allowing the crew to rectify the issues. That section of the broadcast has been removed here to make everything run a little smoother.

At the time of this show Editors' summer campaign was winding down, yet however fatigued the band may have been feeling you probably wouldn't guess judging by the energy they were still able to conjure up on command. The audience here are sensational, given that they spend most of the set being rained on by a truly unforgiving Slovakian sky. If you look during Honesty you can see it falling across the front of the stage. This was another appointment that Elliott wasn't a part of, as he was exploring his own creative impulses in the guise of Y.O.U. during this time. That's not to say that there was a gap in the lineup because Nic Willes, the man who proudly transgresses the no tattoo rule in Editors was present on guitar, keys and backing vocals. Enjoy the music, folks :)
