here's the set

it's like they want to make it HARD to find the official photos. why not on bjork's page?
why not in HQ?
why nothing like it was promised?

[faber]

It seems like Bjork's team really don't understand that if the people know that, even if it's told, there won't be any photo published, that will make even more people wanting to take photos during the show or the beforehand announcement is just a fool?

Actually, they said nothing about audio. It was constantly "no photo or video recording" throughout the night.

Speaking of audio, I did get the whole thing. I should have it up tomorrow.

Dan, I just want to say I've been enjoying your recordings since the Volta shows at MSG and Radio City. I'm back on the 4um as a new user because for some reason my old one stopped working completely. But, I'm SO appreciative you're still around and doing this. I was at the show last night and can't wait to re-live it

Well, I like photos and I like taking them… but I also know it can be annoying as hell for both the artist and the people around the photographers. If allowed I take just a few pics with a camera with a viewfinder and display turned off… or with my iPhone: display brightness dimmed, no flash and the stupid click-sound turned off.

More and more people just do whatever they like. They use smartphones with 100% brightness (and film complete songs in front of you like this), leave LED flash turned on… or use compact cameras with extremely annoying red AF-lights turned on… or use their fancy DSRL cameras and review *every* picture.

Anyway, maybe artists should give the audience members the same restrictions as the professional photo press: only allow them to take pictures during the first (two) track(s).

Awesome comeback, Sun In My Mouth hasn't been played sience Átta Raddir in 2011, I was hoping for One Day in the encore

2009 it was aired 2 years later

Yup, february 2011, the year, memories still fresh as lettuce

[jotafred]

There's not one single show pics on bjork.com THAT'S why people takes pictures.

Offer official pics or deal with 5 mp documentation.

haha, well either way, that sucks.

and see how awful those photos are? if those are the one they think will do... well.. the guy chose all the worst one, except maybe one or two, and pumped up the saturation to painful levels...

the biophilia ones were not always great, but they weren't THAT bad.

Why do people need photos of everything they do or see nowadays??? I haven't ever taken a pic of any gig. Because I CAN live in the moment without gadgets.

[benjicoq]

how is that an answer to my post?

[nelapsi86]

sun in my mouth! (I hope tho it's not just vocals and hang, I love the strings in it)

can't wait for the audio, thank you all (and benji, cool cover as always )

Props to you!

For the same reason people take photos at weddings/birthdays - to remember and put a special moment in a frame, should we stop taking photographs at all then?

Do you think she could add An Echo A Stain to her set?

[rastafa_88]

Do you think she could add An Echo A Stain to her set?

I hope she does and I would like to hear ''I've seen it all'' as well.

[An Echo, A Stain]

Do you think she could add An Echo A Stain to her set?

I was already specifically hoping for All Neon Like and Sun in My Mouth - if she added An Echo, A Stain, my Vulnicura Tour wish list will be complete!! *fingers crossed*

wow beautiful! I really love that she's pulling out some deeper tracks from her catalogue. Can't wait to see which other tracks will get new life on this tour.

Speaking of audio, I did get the whole thing. I should have it up tomorrow.

Can't wait to hear it Dan! Will you be at any other shows? I really need to start downloading your recordings

[benjicoq]

so, bjork account on Facebook shares one photo
YAY
too bad it's from her backside XD

only 2 shows left
i would like to thank all for the monumental good energy thats been washed upon us playing these concerts !!!!! ive never felt anything like it ! with only 2 left im getting super mushy : i would like to thank the musicians manu delago , alarm will sound and especially arca , whos made new arrangements : this beacon of fertility played proper dress up with my old songs made them all shiny and new !!!

music is a beast best suited for concert halls : and i was blessed enough this time around to try amongst the new york finest : carnegie hall , the magnificent newly renovated kings theatre in brooklyn and the intimate city center . this time around ive kept the staging and theatricals minimal , let it all be about the music , the notation , the listeners . these temples of music are an ancient idea and not a coincidence that they work ! hurray to gigs !!! im grateful !! looking forward to seeing you for those 2 remaining shows !

^ I am so fearful she won't do any other Vulnicura shows in North America. The east coast is sooooo faaaarrr awayyyyyyy

[far & away]

I do hope this just a farewell to New York and not to all concert-hall shows on this tour.

I wonder whether "Sun in My Mouth," "Harm of Will" and "All Neon Like" (or any other songs) were suggested by Arca. As a fan, he must have been as thrilled as us to hear them live and, of course, to make new arrangements on top of that.

[error]

I wonder how different the festival concerts will be. Other musicians? New wardrobe? New visuals? New setlists?

[Dot]

Please don't let this be a farewell to residencies/concert-halls. DON'T.

[Germanyon]

where is the bootleg threat?

[benjicoq]

[Burnface]

OMG in Family @ 5:23 she goes all Ayayayayayay and I lose it every time.

[benjicoq]

haha yeah maks me think or mariachis
and this

[berryjona]

this is a very good question. i've been wondering what she'll do for shows where Arca is not there, or ones that are not in a concert hall environment.

[berryjona]

^ I am so fearful she won't do any other Vulnicura shows in North America. The east coast is sooooo faaaarrr awayyyyyyy

yeah, especially since her FB message said the last 2 shows … and now she'll be touring other dates not in USA.

Well I think she needs to make the show for festivals a little bit more visual and bring back the reactable and maybe bring Matt Robertson or Damian Taylor back and when there is no choir it kinda limits a lot of her songs. But maybe 5 songs of Vulnicura and then all the old festival songs she usually plays ''Army of Me'' ''Hunter'' ''5 years'' ''Hyperballad'' ETC... Because if you're not a fan of Björk I don't think that people going to the festivals would wanna hear the whole Vulnicura as a closer to the whole festival.
