@Polewka123 Another great pull by Kompaktmode! I was there with him and believe I even might have gotten a “Thank you” credit at 1:47:50, not sure why though. 😁
I saw EN in Stockholm two years ago and even though the set list was mostly same, I enjoyed the seated show in full sunlight more!

@Polewka123 And it’s a German magazine?! The plot thickens…

@Polewka123 That’s a stunning t-shirt, where did you get it?!

A UK P8 maritime patrol aircraft spent 6 hours finecombing SW Baltic Sea for enemy units, above and below surface, before command would let the ship ARK GERMANIA leave Køge port for a transport of military units across Baltic Sea. Another P8 covering ahead.

Threat level, raised?

When Dire Straits took the stage at Live Aid in '85, most fans had no idea why Sting joined them, but when he started singing the opening lyrics to "Money For Nothing", they realized it was his voice on the radio hit which widely went unnoticed til then 🔥 Goosebumps when Mark Knopfler finally plays that guitar riff and the crowd takes over for the drums.

@Polewka123 Kudos for touring. I never made more than 5 DM shows on a single tour.

[Jan Sundström @sunjan]

@Polewka123 Nice! I was rolling MD roughly 1999-2005, remember my Sharp getting soaked by the friendly guards handing out water at the Orbital gig in Roskilde. Recovered the next day…

[Jan Sundström @sunjan]

@Polewka123 Still cool, kudos for collecting Curve tickets! Did you see the recent interview with Toni and Alan Moulder from the Caribbean?!

[Jan Sundström @sunjan]

@Polewka123 Nice! Tribute band or DJ show?

Talking Heads performing “Once in a Lifetime” at The Pantages Theatre in 1983 feels like watching a nervous breakdown turn into art. The groove keeps moving, David Byrne looks like he’s receiving messages from another planet, and the whole performance captures that strange feeling of waking up inside your own life and wondering how you got there.

I took 1.7 million photos over 6 days to catch this photo of a commercial jet in front of the sun.

The moment it happened, TWO floating prominences were visible, making this not just my best aircraft transit photo, but one of the luckiest of my career! Videos of the transit 👇
