Presented here is a list of concerts Sivert Høyem has performed as a solo artist. Please note that all shows until 2005 were done as Sivert Höyem & The Opposition, while all shows starting in 2006 were done as Sivert Høyem & The Volunteers. Whenever Sivert played without a backing band, it should be noted. As far as it is possible, information about setlists, recordings or other notes are added to the shows. This list is updated when new information surfaces, and does not claim to be one hundred percent accurate. Though efforts are made to keep this list error-free, information is mostly taken from second-hand sources, and experience has shown that errors will occur every now and then. Additions to this list are appreciated at webmaster@madrugada.de. Thank you very much.
Due to the length of this list, it has been made into several sections to make browsing through it a bit easier. Please note that the dates are presented in American format, month/date/year.

Notes -
| A special night for the band, as Mikael turned thirty on this day that concluded the band's first proper Norwegian tour. They were planning on coming back for a second encore to play the Leadbelly cover "Goodnight Irene," but the audience forgot to clap to get the band back on stage.
|
Recordings -
|
Recorded by the band, most likely on professional equipment from the soundboard and also with microphones on stage and on sound isle. Video taped for the band by a Folken crew member, entire concert taped except for first song. The complete performance, seemingly from a rather untouched soundboard recording, has been available as an audio stream at the local newspaper Stavanger Aftenblad's website.
