(pictures by me)
Yesterday we made a trip to Berlin to see Owen Pallett and Mono playing at Hebbel am Ufer 2. Owen was playing first, which kind of stressed me out because I so badly wanted to see Mono (I already saw them 2-3 times), but we had some time pressure regarding our last train leaving the station at 0:18am.
So when Owen finished - as I already saw him, too, I was a bit bored of him because his music and he himself aren't super-exciting - they needed extra long to re-arrange the stage and put everything in order. At 11pm Mono started.
Seeing Mono - for me - is always a very special experience. I can't really put it into words, but I have never seen a band that put so much energy and emotion in their music as they do. I love how they start with very soft and gentle melodies which turn into blasting orgiastic arrangements what just leaves you awe and pain, in a pure and positive way. The awe-ing pain turned into true pain when I had to leave the location in the explosion of "Yearning", my most favorite song which likes to last about 20 minutes. Aw and awe never came that close and I am more sure now that I always need and have to see Mono whenever I have the chance to!
