I have always wanted to capture on video the final magical moment backstage before a Björk concert, just before we walk on stage. The intensity is incredibIe. I recently bought a new camera and filmed this on August 23, when Wonderbrass marched on stage, playing Brennið þið vitar.

I’m indepted to Ragga Gestsdóttir for editing the video to a proper size so it could be uploaded. Thanks, Ragga!

    When Bjork performed “I Miss You” on August 23, you got wrong did you ?

    You started playing the melody before the beat has started ;)

    Cheers,

    Btw Jonas, I love how Brennið Þið Vitar sounds. What does it translate to, and what kind of song is it?

    In theater, we have many superstitions and have rituals that we perform before every show lest it be doomed to failure! I wonder if Björk and company have any routines that happen before each show……. MUST remove shoes before song three ha ha.

    You mean like fifteen Hail Marys before Wanderlust? Not that I’m aware of, no…
