Milk Inc. Supersized - The Concert (2006)

At the dawn of September, I wrote an article on the new Milk Inc. album called "Supersized" and I promised I would give more info on the concert. Since this was a sold-out concert, I thought it would be best to wait until after it had passed, so I could share the experience and make all of you pretty damn jealous :)

I had been looking forward to this concert ever since I received word that there would be a concert. Actually I forgot that Milk Inc. already existed for ten years. Like a lot of other people, my interest in the dance group was very little until Linda Mertens joined as a singer. She doesn't only have an amazing voice, she's also a very pretty lady to droo... um... look at. Since I really LOVE their dance music, and found it amazing that they were going to do a live show, I wanted to lay my hands on tickets as soon as humanly possible. Especially after reading the article below from the Milk Inc. website.

Today, Regi and Linda presented Milk Inc. Supersized. During a press conference, they told us several things concering the concert.

On September 30, Linda and Regi won't be alone on the big stage at the Sportpaleis at Antwerp. Filip Vandueren, co-producer of Milk Inc., will be there on stage with them with his synths. At the drums, Michael Schack (drummer of Camden and Ozark Henry) will be there too. Supertalent Roland Synth/Dj wizzard David Ahlund from Stockholm will be present. And to finish with another talent, Peter Schreurs, as absolute synth-specialist, will support Filip and David. Linda will be supported by some backing vocals and some dancers.

Of course, a lot of songs from the Milk Inc. repertoire will be played and there will be some surprises during this marvelous show. On a special stage, we'll see Linda, Regi and Filip in a high technological state-of-the-art show. Lightshow, videowall,... Milk Inc. Supersized will be engraved in your mind forever. There's only one aim for Linda and Regi: total ambiance so the Sportpaleis will shake on its foundations.

The promotion for Milk Inc. SuperSized will start completely now. Up until now, 4000 of the 15000 tickets are sold. Do you want to be there on September 30? Visit the Milk Inc. Supersized page on the Sportpaleis site and click on the ticket button to order your tickets.

Did they live up to their promise and did they fulfill all expectations? Hell yes! Apart from the splendid live performances with the wellknown (and new) Milk Inc. sounds, samples and vocals, they had a few surprises as well. You can take a look at the setlist below.
