Gyllene Tider – GT40 – Karlstad – 31st July 2019 – #12

Karlstad became Gyllene Tider’s 10th sold out show on tour! 12000 people came to see the Golden Gang in Mariebergsskogen. When the gig started, I went live on our Facebook page, so HERE you can watch a video of how the guys and girls hit the stage. Starting with the Pink Panther Theme intro and performing the first setlist song, Skicka ett vykort, älskling.

PG was jumping and bouncing around in his Duracell bunny style and MP was a rock star again. The girls were dancing wildly and Göran did his Fritzon moves behind the Farfisa. Anders was moving more on stage, he even came to the left side and played there in the front. Micke did his heavy drumming and was much fun when he talked. He couldn’t find the lines between ”mmmmm” and ”grön bensin” in Låt denna trumslagarpojke sjunga!, but he was only laughing at himself. He was concentrating too much on the girls’ mmmmm part. Haha.

The crowd in Karlstad wasn’t the heaviest sing-along audience on this tour, but parts of the crowd were shouting, other parts jumping and clapping. Leva livet and Sommartider worked the best on them. Then everyone’s hands were up in the air and you could hear them singing louder.

At the end of the concert Per thanked for coming and mentioned, as he does it since some shows that without the crowd they would be nothing.

The setlist was the same as in Piteå, which means they played 21 songs and skipped Tylö Sun, as well as the 1st song in the first encore. If they are following last week’s pattern, we might hear 20 songs in Eskilstuna on Friday and 23 in Gothenburg on Saturday. Let’s see what happens!

GT after the show:

#12 KARLSTAD! Som väntat en fantastisk kväll i Värmland. Finfint väder, grym publik och småsvängigt ungdomligt band på scen! Tack alla som gjorde onsdagskvällen till ännu ett utsålt gig på denna helt sanslösa GT40-turne’!
