I was probably the only person being there to see The Lucksmiths with
the added bonus of Belle & Sebastian.

I am pretty sure nobody in Belle & Sebastian was drunk in Munich but
still their show was disappointing, compared to the previous times I
saw them (Barcelona 9/1997, Stockholm 9/1998) It's hard to say so but
they were not worth the 8 hours drive, but I agree with Geoffrey that
The Lucksmiths were excellent and much better than B&S that evening. 

The audience was full of people who had read about B&S in some of
Germany's major newspapers or magazines but never heard their records
instead of die-hard fans as in Stockholm the week before. The good
thing was that they played a completely different set of songs
compared to Stockholm.
