  • You might be an 8th level cleric magic user, but you're a 40th level fewl.

    Peter Murphy -is- great...and would be embarassed over 'fans' like you.

  • I was blown away by the concert at Dragon*Con, but missed this performance. Thanks so much for posting this vid! Stigmata Martyr is one of my favorites of theirs, and it sounds at least as good acoustic.

  • Doesn't it, though?

    AP's material lends itself so well to an acoustic setting that I was floored when I sent the usual email to them (as I do for all bands scheduled to play D*C) asking if they could do an acoustic show on the Concourse stage at D*C, and they said "We've never done it before, but we'll try!"

  • this is awesome. Im too old to know who the hell these guys are but I really would have loved to have been in this room. From what Ive tried on itunes I like this better than anything theyve done. So glad you were there and shared this. is this your built in mic?? sound is really good .

  • Yep, that's the built-in mic on a JVC Everio GZ130, 30Gb HDD model. It works pretty well with acoustic shows...not as well with fully-amped performances, although I fared surprisingly well at The Cruxshadows' show at D*C that year.

    BTW, I was the one who scheduled Abney Park for this performance, but unfortunately I couldn't avoid the 'morning after' time slot.

    Gotta give credit to the band Emerald Rose, who kindly donated their awesome Bose tower system for this stage at D*C.

  • It's so awesome. I wish they'd actually release an acoustic album, this sounds so great!

  • This is really cool. I can understand the lyrics in this version, thus enjoying it more.
