Chaos Week!!!

This is an image ive seen too many times this week. The sun rising at another airport. The pattern since we got back to Europe has been- Up at 4am. Flight at 7. Connection at 11am. Get to gig at 3pm. Show at 10pm. Hotel at 1am. Leave at 4am. Repeat ad nauseum. This week we've seen Amsterdam(twice), Rotterdam, Munich(twice), Lisbon(twice), Lyon(twice), Stockholm(twice) and Frankfurt airports. Oh well, could be worse...
I could have a "real" job : )
its been a pretty busy week hence the lack of postings...also due to lack of wireless at the shows. Here is a couple of pics from the show in Portugal earlier this week. The show was in some sort of gardens attached to a stately home. Was a great show and we were staying in one of the nicest hotels ive stayed at for some time






























So on we roll to Vienne in France. After a long connection in Munich. We arrived to discover 9....yes 9(sorry di i stutter!!) pieces of luggage had been lost (Including mine) so i had to spend a day in 100 * heat in a pair of jeans as my shirts were in Munich!!!! Got my bag back eventually but some have yet to be so lucky!! The venue was an old stone ampitheatre. Not the best show of the tour but the crowd seemed happy nonetheless.




























This is a picture i took yesterday as we flew over the alps from Lyon to Munich. Kinda Nice Eh!!!
So here i am at another airport. Stockholm this time. And before you say anything, yes i was just here. 2 weeks today to be exact. Oh well. Luckily Stockholm is one of my favourite cities in the world. The people are very nice and friendly. We played at the Stockholm Jazz Festival last night. Its now 8am and im waiting on a plane again. The show took place on a stage on the waterfront. Do you like the boat in the background??


Also on the bill was Jazz legend Maceo Parker, who played a great set.


Good show all round really, especially Kanye seemed in a great mood. Stopping the show to encourage people at the concession stands to down theyre beers in one is not something he does every night!!!

So that leaves me here at the airport again. Luckily i dont mind today as im heading home for about 30 hours. Change some clothes and off to France again on Sat night for my last show with Kanye before heading to Australia on Monday with Arctic Monkeys again. Time flies when youre not sleeping doesnt it!!!!
Ta Ta For Now!!!
