Euro Tour

After the show in Cologe, it was off to Brussels for 4 days off, which were spent mostly walking around this great city and eating and drinking some great food and wine.


One particular favourite is the "Circeuil" bar which has coffins for tables and skulls for drinking out of.
and the "Celtica" irish bar which has 1 Euro beer for happy hour from 1pm 'til midnight which sounds pretty good to me really.
Not sure what this store is though


After our little holiday came to an end it was back to work with a show at the Pukkelpop festival where i had probably the biggest lighting rig i've had for some time


Was a pretty good but the crowd were a little dead, prob due in no small part to the 1.15am stage time.
Also on the bill was Serj Tankian of System Of A Down

And Henry Rollins amongst others


After that it was off to Erfhurt in Germany for the HIghfield festival where i had a double gig looking after Bloc Party for a friend of mine who couldnt be there


Towards the end of the show i couldnt figure out why the stage started to disappear until i realised that there was a mist coming in off the lake beside the stage.
Next up was a show near Salzburg in Austria before heaing on to Budapest in Hungary, where i found a resturaunt promising "Romantic gypsy music"


After the show here which was our second year in a row to headline the Sziget festival it was time for a 2 day drive to Dublin but not for me. I'm flying home for a day off
