The only mess-up was local securiy. They started to let the crowd
inside in the last minute, but there was only two security people checking
for cameras (and possibly weapons of mass destruction ;-)
The show was delayed about an hour until everybody were in.

There was a local news cameraman waiting in the queue near me and
I heard him telling to some of his friends he met there, that he was
allowed to shoot only the first song. As far as I know, there were parts
of Man Machine shown in the evening news.

The concert was perfect. No techical or musical problems I could recognize.
Ralf was playing keyboards and singing as usual and Florian stayed as still
as possible. Only during the Neon Lights, when he was playing the sound
effect part he suddenly swinged himself backwards like a guitar player.
He wore his head mic only for Autobahn and I heard him clearly singing along
with Ralf.

As far as I can remember, most of the songs which have different language
versions, were german. Neon Lights and Pocket Calculator were half
english and half german.

After Pocket Calculator they suddenly smashed shut their computer screens
and ran away from the stage before the curtains shut and lights went
out. Did they do it in other shows also?

After the show was over, I went to check out the sound-man's gear in the
middle of the hall. He was already packing his stuff. There was a tripod
standing in the corner, but I didn't see the camera. It was probably moved
away already. 

> Was it the first time you saw them live?

Yes, it was the first time. And it was the first time they were in Estonia also,
hopefully not the last....
