But this wasn’t an indoor event, and VTM wasn’t the main act.
On that night, Van Morrison played support act for Paul Simon (“Rhythm of the Saints” tour)
at the WALDBUEHNE - a huge open-air arena with gruesome acoustics (even at good times)
and always happy crowds.
Even on the day of the event the beginning was announced for 20:00 hrs,
but the actual beginning was 19:00 hrs. (does this sound familiar?).
It meant that people just started coming to the show when the gig was almost over.
Considering this it’s a small wonder that Van played extremely well
and in a fairly good mood.
But he was rushed by others: even before starting an encore,
stagehands would take away the musical instruments.
Cold, wet evening, one reviewer didn’t make it in time
for the support act (but finished his article: “Everybody said that Van Morrison
had been great. That’s to do with the weather:
only when it’s raining those Irishmen can perform to their best.”) - Birgit Schultz
