Last night, Bounce played the last of their three shows with an Orchestra in the Grugahalle in Essen - 25 years after Bon Jovi took the stage there. Was a great experience and for a band who does this after they've finished their dayjobs to rearrange a whole set for a 60 piece orchestra, it was a tremendous achievement.
Even though not everything was perfect (pacing of the setlist too slow in the beginning, sound not as loud as I would've loved and Olli's voice cracking in the outro of Always), they pulled some surprises and really fresh arrangements out of the head.
Fear (never played before!)
It's My Life (with choir added)
Wild Is The Wind
Runaway (Olli had regained his voice for the high screams in the end!)
Born To Be My Baby (was breathtaking live!)
Never Say Goodbye (again the high notes in the end just like on the album!)
