These Danes are so comfortable in front of this huge audience, part of the Rewind, Replay, Rebound tour, as they blaze through their 22-song performance. From opener Leviathan to main set closer Last Day Under The Sun (both from the aforementioned Rewind album), the band scarcely interrupt the rhythmic flow of their irrepressible rock’n’roll. Even when the pace is slowed for something like When We Were Kids, the intensity never lets up.
There are notable moments where the stakes are raised to enticing highs. It happens, for example, when frontman Michael Poulsen exhorts everyone to channel the spirit of Johnny Cash for a brief singalong snippet from Ring Of Fire. It happens again when Danko Jones joins the guys for Black Rose, and a later peak comes with the arrival of ZZ Bottom, a fine ZZ Top tribute act roped in for Die To Live.
