| "I have an extra. For those who don't know: Live means playing keyboards and everything LIVE. Thank you." -Piet Bervoets, 09-06-2012 That's right! One of Rank 1's most outstanding features is their infamous live act in which they take about half an hour to an hour to treat ravers to a selection of their own tracks (or favorite Classics) played on keyboards and improvising track arrangements LIVE (on the spot!). They rocked Trance Energy with a live show no less than four times, even though the last time was more of a surprise gimmick than a specifically planned live performance like at the 2005, 2002 and 2000 editions. They dominated Sensation 2001, dressed in white, alongside the 30.000 something ravers in the Amsterdam ArenA. Well over TWO decades since the first live shows however, they haven't lost the touch one bit, with one of their longest live performances ever having taking place in the United States: Their Dreamstate SoCal Live performance of November 2017 contained 14 tracks and lasted over 58 minutes! If you can rock a crowd the way you did 20 years earlier, the tag Legend cannot ever be stolen from you by anyone... ;) Be sure to check out the whole list! Also, to kick this section off in style, you will find two cool fan reworks of the unreleased, live performed version of their initial collaboration with Marco V below! |
