Justin Surrounded Tour

[Bever]

I went to (checks notes) Übach-Palenberg, Germany yesterday, in traffic a 2,5 hour drive from my home in Belgium. Don't regret it for a moment. This was my second JS solo gig (first one in Rotterdam a few years ago), and it's amazing how he can fill a whole stage on his own.

The atmosphere was great, and so was the setlist. I think it looked like this, but not 100% sure: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/justin-sullivan/2021/rockfabrik-ubach-palenberg-germany-b8cc9c2.html It feels good to be able to attend live gigs again. If you have the chance to attend one, don't think twice!

We're getting the train from Amsterdam to see the shows in Frankfurt and Osnabruck, looking forward to it...

Not much talk about the tour on here... I went to the Hamburg gig yesterday and wish I could attend more of the tour. Great setlist (pretty much the same as in Übach-Palenberg, might add later when I have my notes on me), cool venue right in the middle of the city next to St. Pauli Stadium and Justin just holds the room (or the outside, in this case).

Not quite sold out, I think, as they increased the number of guests allowed, but still a very decent crowd.

This was Hamburg: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/justin-sullivan/2021/knust-hamburg-germany-2b8c30a2.html

An extra show in Maastricht was added, which is doable for me as well to attend, so I might head over there. I do have the impression that there won't be too much variation in the setlist. I find it odd as well that there are no Navigating By The Stars songs on there.

[flodhaest]

Thanks - surprisingly there are no setlists for the other dates. Hamburg is more or less exactly the same as Übach-Palenberg, but why change a good thing  . I thought there would be some more Navigating by the stars-Songs, too.

I'd definitely go to another gig if I had the chance.

Edit: corrected mistaken assumption about the songs on NBTS.

[Viv Savage]

Changing Of The Light is on NBTS 

[flodhaest]

Oh. Yes. My bad.

I edited to "some more"   .

Changing Of The Light is on NBTS 

You are right! I was mistaken by the info on setlist.fm: https://www.setlist.fm/stats/songs/justin-sullivan-73d66ae5.html?songid=6bf84a12

So the question is: is this an NMA song, a JS song or as setlist.fm puts it a JS+DB song? I see 7 times NMA as well: https://www.setlist.fm/song/justin-sullivan-and-dave-blomberg/changing-of-the-light-6bf84a12.html

Well... You know me  Just arrived to the hostel, now sampling some fine German beer 

[Ghosttrain]

Have a great time.... ...

All I know/remember is:
JS wrote it during a visit in Kiel (Baltic Sea) - can`t find the source now
The earliest version I know is Southwick 12/1993 JS&DB
RSC played it Feb. 1994
Chinese Whispers listed Big Guitars .. with DB as a JS solo project - so it could be a JS solo song ....

After so many years of visiting NMA/RSC/JS solo gigs I stay at home this year - thank you Corona, the special rules and my lost fitness

[Tarsier]

It was such a beautiful gig... I don't think there's a way to describe it as it was "just" a pure feeling... I did cry...  but it was a good feeling... And I was happy to stand up at the end!
