Found these this morning - (both positive reviews I guess, given that there can sometimes be a lack of enthusiasm from the Swedish media about Salem's live shows - why are they reluctant to give him five stars???? )

That's amazing news that 6,500 people were there! It's only a matter of time until he's playing the Scandinavium :))
EDIT 23:00: I'm watching and enjoying the YouTube clips posted so far. Hope there will be more to come! It just occurred to me that "4 O'Clock" provides the best clapping-opportunity for a live audience since another crowd-pleasing anthem, Queen's "We Will Rock You"!! Don't you agree??
I will post my videos when I am home from work, my sister and I saw his soundcheck, so I have great videos from it :)
ReplyDeleteHi Laura, hope you are well.
ReplyDeleteI have posted my videos from Liseberg at my youtube chanel and you can also see some pictures on my blog. Salem had a soundcheck that we of course stayed and watched.

Once again great job with this page and bringing us news about Salem.
Hi Zelly! I'm fine, hope you are well too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the videos - these are great! I'm glad that you got to see the soundcheck as well as the show.
Glad you still like the blog too - keep in touch :)
Synd att vi inte fick höra "One of the others" på Liseberg: minabsoluta favorit.
ReplyDeleteToo bad we didn´t get to hear "One of the others" on Liseberg. /Anna
ReplyDeleteI hope he hasn't completely dropped "One Of The Others" from the live set - it is a great song which is even better when played live. Did Salem play "Twelve Fingers" at Liseberg, as this seems to have been left out of recent live shows too?
