Germany part II

Guten Morgen,

So, the last 5 gigs are coming up now and we are still alive!
So far it's been a pleasure and we've meet many new friends.
Hamburg was great as was Föhr and Melle Buer. The TV filming of the Hamburg gig will be aired in january/february and I will inform you about the date later on.

We are also getting the first record reviews now and they are all GREAT!! I will try to put them up here when I get home. Also Guitar magazine here in Germany has a 2 page feature. I did an equipment special with my friend Christian Tolle for Guitar & Bass Magazine which will be out in january I think.

That's it for now, we're heading out to Wezlar and one of our favourite clubs Francis now.

Later....

Live from Germany

Hi to all,

Here we are in rainy Hamburg after 4 gigs here in Germany. We have 2 off days now and then we'll play here at the Down Town Blues cafe which is a very nice venue.This show will also be filmed by HH1 and we will get the material for our own use (a DVD with different concerts at some point !)
So far we've had a good time and the attendence has been doubled at the 2 "old" venues that we did last year so things are looking good.
Ralf "Papa" Neumann is taking care of us and whatching that drinking is kept to a minimum...he,he he doesn't know that he is dealing with proffessionals!

Ok, I'm getting ready for my Jiu-jitsu training here in Hamburg... I'll be back with more tour stuff and pics later this week.
