Euro Adventure Continues...


So on we travelled for the club show in Copenhagen which was interesting as it allowed Alicia and the band to jam on more songs that they wouldnt normally do in the arena show as there was no video content to stick by.
After that we continued heading north to Stockholm and then on wards to Oslo for 2 days off. We couldnt have picked a worse place to have time off as Oslo is possibly one of the most expensive cities in the world where a beer could easily run you $14 a time and if you spend less than $60 on dinner you are doing well but it is a beautiful city full of very friendly and nice people, although im not so sure about this sign outside the venue.


Or this sign in the Burger King opposite the hotel


Next up was a the start of our long drives as we headed to Hamburg before a 12 hour drive to Zurich where we arrived 5 hours late for load in but still managed to get the whole show in before doors opened. i swear, booking agents should be made to go on a tour and work before they are allowed to book some of the routing that i've seen in my career so far. I was pretty good at Math in school so maybe it was only me that saw this a problem

Hamburg - Zurich = 12 hours
Load out finishes at 2am, load in starts at 8am, time between = 6 hours


6 - 12 = -6 hmmmm
Whoever thought this was possible!!

Anyhow, after that we were off to a day off in my favourite city in Europe, Barcelona!!
