Video: Dean Wareham in Europe

Now that Dean’s European jaunt is over I think it must be time for another selection of clips, this time from the mainland leg of the tour - I think by default I’ve always been inclined to pick Galaxie 500 songs, I’ll try not to do that (so much) this time!

First up Bourgeois Manqué from the new album

I think Dean saved singing in German until he was in Germany:

Dean Wareham - Reich Der Träume (Hamburg) (play on YouTube)
Dean Wareham - We're Not Finished Yet (Utrecht) (play on YouTube)

For the show in Utrecht I think Matt was poorly/unavailable so the show was played as a three piece, with a changed setlist because of that… including Britta getting to lead on Listen, The Snow is Falling:

Dean Wareham - Listen, The Snow is Falling (Utrecht) (play on YouTube)

… and Don’t Let Our Youth Go to Waste getting an outing!

I love that The Last Word from Dean’s previous album has become a duet with Britta for this tour - it works beautifully. Here they are singing it in Valencia:

… and I know I shared this in my Groningen diary post but, I was there so… I’ll share it again!

(see how badly I did on not picking Galaxie 500 songs!)
