Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds @ Dahalla Sweden.

On hearing about this gig in a disused quarry in Sweden, we planned a whole holiday around it, starting in Stravanger, Norway and ending up in Stockholm, Sweden.
It is nearly in the middle of nowhere, a few houses, plenty of trees and lakes, although we stayed in Rattvik some seven miles away on the shores of Lake Siljan.
So this is being written some six weeks after the event with a need for reflection to describe what we saw. We were lucky to get down the front when the auditorium was opened up so managed to stand 3 or 4 from the crash barrier in the middle and right in front of the walkway that linked the stage to Cave's walkway that ran across the front and ontop of the crash barrier.
