The Awakening - Vampyre Girl (live 2007)
..
Rough live recording from a selection of small club shows we played in the US over October / November 2007. It's only Rock 'n Roll but I like it :-)
The Awakening - Stigma (live 2000)
..
Some of my favourite live footage, taken from the launch of "The Fourth Seal of Zeen" in Nov 2000. The sound is a little rough but the show had that wonderful clandestine quality...
The Awakening - Mirror Tricks

Live Footage from The Awakening's performance at Zeplins (South Africa) in May 2006. Unfortunately we had to dub the cd sound over the performance as the original sound was lost...
