L I V E D A T E S Coming soon

Music as complex as Destiny's is naturally difficult to perform well in a live situation. Still Destiny manages to do just that, seemingly with little or no effort. This is one of many things that will impress the audience at a Destiny show. They also ought to be rather impressed with stage presence of these experienced performers. After the foreboding intro (from Beyond All Sense), the men in black enter the stage. From that point, it doesn't really matter what stage it was seconds before. From now on, the stage belongs to Destiny!

Kristoffer Göbel haunts the stage from left to right, convincing the audience beyond uncertainty that he has "nothing left to fear" and that his tomorrow is their yesterdays. At his side is, as always, the hard-working figure of Stefan Björnshög, assaulting his five string bass with frenetic energy. Flanking the couple is Destiny's two string-benders extra- ordinary: Janne Ekberg and Micke Åberg . From behind his drum kit relentless drummer Birger Löfman lays out a steady rhythm.

Now, Destiny don't employ the kind of stage show that will let you ooh and aah at all the pretty colours and the fancy explosions. Entertaining as such a show may be, Destiny has always counted on their ability to carry the show through their performance and stage antics - and they're absolutely right. A Destiny show is a positively spellbinding experience. And with a new album out, they just might hit your town in the near future. So sleep with one eye open...
