It was in Berlin, the Summer Metal Meeting Festival in 1996.
The opener was Strange Machines.
YES, I'm a big fan since that day!!!

2nd May 1997 - on Metalmania Festival in Katowice. The show was definitely too short, but they came back to Katowice in July '97!!! :D

Sorry it was such a late date- but it took them that long to show up on our far shores (US Tour- Milwaukee Metalfest show).

It was excellent, and I am sure that they got great exposure- but they were rather down on the play list (6pm day 1, or somewhere) before really weak acts like Skinlab :roll:

A longer set would have been wonderful (I see that the rest of their US shows included a fuller play list, and an encore) too bad CM couldn't do more for them.

An amazing show nonetheless- Anneke was in a silver sparkling dress, Rene had a yellow Willie Nelson shirt (?) and Hans was shirtless (couldn't see Hugo or Frank from where I was (stage left, right up against barrier).

It was sort of a lackluster metalfest- but when I saw them listed (in the fineprint) I called ticketron/ticketmaster immediately.

In June 2003 in a little town called Dudley here in the UK... A dream coming true! It was a pity that there were only a handfull of people in the barnshed type of venue. Not that it seemed to matter to the band - they still gave it all. Great memory, great show - even the true barnyardshed style accoustics added to the atmosphere.

Yes, my first Gathering show was the same as Vaccinator's.....July 30 1999 at Milwaukee Metalfest....and then again 3 days later (August 2) in Wheaton, MD. I do agree it was a rather lackluster metalfest. If I could do it over again, I would've left the metalfest after day 1 (when The Gathering played) and gone to the two Ohio shows in Lorain & Columbus before returning home to MD for the show August 2. I don't know what I was thinking. :-? That could have been incredible to catch 4 Gathering shows in a row. I wouldn't have missed much by skipping out on day 2 of the metalfest.....The Gathering was the main reason I went anyway.

That's kind of funny about Rene in the Willie Nelson shirt??....I have no idea, I just remember it was some yellow jersey/longsleeve. I'll have to take a look at the video to see if I can read what his shirt says.
