25/02/2008 - Mandela Hall, Belfast What an incredible night! 8 10 pm and the ‘doors’ finally opened! Both the excitement and the anticipation of a night to remember were tangible in and around the vicinity of Mandela Hall. From my excellent viewpoint of ‘centre stage upper level’, I could feel, see and hear the excitement rising – ‘It’s just like a Liverpool football match’ exclaimed the highly excited young student behind me as members of the audience began to chant in anticipation of the pleasures awaiting them. Finally, Mobius Band arrived on stage … their six ‘performances’ ensured that the audience was suitably ‘warmed’ ready for the highly awaited and longed for Editors! Was Russell really watching Mobius perform from amidst the thronging crowd … or was it his twin brother??? Finally E D I T OR S arrived to huge applause and a little liquid refreshment in the form of a few beers thrown at the stage – great dodging Chris! The sounds of the longed for Camera (Forum members knew that this was imminent) filled the air with an eerie expectation and the audience went wild with a mixture of excitement and pure unadulterated joy. Our lads rose to the challenge of performing on a small stage and seemed to be aware of and responded enthusiastically to the amusing and fanatical antics of a few members of their audience. Highlights of the evening included magnificent renditions of Bones, Munich and Smokers … Smokers was so incredible that I could not prevent the tears from streaming down my cheeks! E D I T OR S – one huge request – please, please continue to ‘perform’ in small venues like Mandela Hall because we love and need to be close enough to see the sweat dripping from your faces!!!!
