The Crüxshadows

...are known for their interactive and lively shows. I had seen one, in Utrecht, two years ago, where the singer came to the stage through the crowd. Later, he sang standing on a barstool somewhere on the dancefloor, danced with people from the audience, and walked around the floor while singing. They also had two dancers (one of which was the tour manager) on stage, presenting a danced interpretation of the music.
Tonight, they were playing a club in Heidelberg, which had a rather small stage. This didn't turn out to be much of a problem: the singer just spent half of the time off-stage, in the crowd. At the end, he invited all those near the stage (including yours truly) to come on-stage and dance, and then the stage turned out to be bigger than thought :).
Apart from the singer and dancers, they have a Keyboardspielerin, a guitarist, and a violinist. The latter held her facial expression constant, neutral and concentrated during the entire show. This had a rather funny effect when the entire band was synchronously jumping up and down to the rhythm of the music: imagine a small girl, in an even smaller gothic outfit, with a minimalist electric violin, playing, with a concentrated look on her face, and jumping up and down.
Although the band is American, the singer, having lived in Germany for some time, bravely tried to do the presentation in German. With moderate success: the people definitely understood him, and appreciated the attempt. And didn't need much presentation: the show was good enough. This time, the dancers had made themselves to look quite alike: apart from wearing the same costume, the normally black-haired one was blonde as well today...
And then, of course, as is always the case with goth concerts, the audience itself was nice to look at as well :).
