7 years after the concert in Copenhagen, Denmark, Kraftwerk revisted the country at the Rosklide Festival with a live performance. The attendance was higher as last concert in Barcelona since the Green Stage, now known as the Arena, has a capacity of 17.000 and was crowded. The true figure might be higher. For a long time, I thought they performed in front of around 100.000 at the Orange Stage until I read a report which mentioned that the gig took place at the smaller stage.
The first song of many Kraftwerk concerts, Numbers, was plagued by a glitch. This time, it wasn't the disabled pitch randomizer (most likely a LFO with a random waveform), but a wrong MIDI trigger. Another glitch appeared at the end of Pocket Calculator with an instrument that randomly jumped to different notes that are part of the key chord. It actually sounds pleasent, so, Henning left it on. Besides this, the performance went flawlessly. German lyrics that were absent in Barcelona returned in Pocket Calculator which seems to be longer than any other 1997/8 version.
With 17.000 attendees or more, the crowd was energetic, enthusiastic and cheerful. There was clapping along the beat especially in The Model and Radioactivity. High attendance also means that there is a higher chance of the event being filmed. There are three audio recordings, the first being incomplete in mediocre quality, the second having better quality, but with a subtly bass distortion and a DC offset on the left channel, and the second having good quality too. An amateur filmed the show from the second part of Tour De France until the end of Trans Europe Express. Recently, an official video clip of Robotronik from MTV surfaced on the internet.

Out of the three audio recordings, I chose the latter one. It has even more audience noise and the acoustics are captured magnificently. I applied the usual effects on the audio to improve the sound. Unfortunately, frequencies of at least 10kHz are obscured by white noise which made it difficult to restore them. Audio files compressed by YouTube (compressed twice) sound even worse than lossy audio files that are only compressed once. There is even a high pass filter applied which is not enabled on every MP3 encoding software (I don't have it enabled and I didn't touch anything). Thus, it sounds slightly muddy in some tracks.
