Long time no see!!




Sorry for the long break in blog posts but hey.... summer time :-)


Anyway, BGB has done a few gigs and we're ready to start giging seriously again.


We did a festival gig up in Kauhajoki that was great...played over 2 hours, went to bed 03.30 and got up at 07.30 to drive back to Helsinki from where I took the train back to Hanko where the family was waiting for me.


Then we did the Lukather gig at House of Culture here in Helsinki which was very cool but short. It was nice to see Steve's band and to hang with them after the show. We went to Henrys Pub for the sunday Jam and were joined by Steves drummer, we did a few songs and jammed.

I recently also finally got my new racksystem from Steen Skrydstrup in Denmark.

I'm like a kid at X-mas with it, SOOOOO COOL!!!

I went down to Denamrk and meet with Steen for fjnal programming etc.

Steen is a very nice guy who not only knows his stuff but also is good friend, someone who I end up talking about things completly not related to music or gear with.

Guitar Slingers did a suprise gig for Aapo Lahti who had his suprise 40th birthday party.

Aapo works for Eastway Sound And Lightning and Guitar Slingers go way back with him and Eastway. He actually was our booker for many years. And again after the party I went to Henrys for the Jam session... :-)

Well, check out the gigs page for live shows, C U out there somewhere.

Cheers,

Ben
