Day 16 Paris

On the previous European tour we did, in 2022, the last show was at the same place we play tonight – Petit Bain. And one of the bands on that tour is on this tour, too.  We walked around Paris…

Day 15 Nantes

Sold-out tonight!  Tiny backstage area with kitchen, dressingroom, shower and toilet all in the same room. It’s small for one band, but we are three bands plus crew!  Me and Henrik did an interview for a radioshow, that was fun.…

Day 14 Vitoria-Gasteiz

I’ve been wanting to tweak my bass sound for a couple of days now. It sounds great out in the PA, but in my in-ears it’s a liiiittle too midrange-y. So I decided to try a different IR (a copy…

Day 13 Valladolid

Interesting start of the day. A ”drop and go”, but the bus stayed at the venue, so we got off for no reason. Kind of small-but-cozy venue with an almost non-existent dressingroom. No shower.  Had breakfast at a nearby cafe.…

Day 12 Mos

Very uneventful day today. Did pretty much nothing the whole day. No soundcheck, because everything sounds the same every night. Really cold here. I heard we’re close to the sea, so that’s probably the reason.  Good venue coffee. Nice meet…

Day 11 Porto

Beautiful Porto today. Woke up with a sore throat. Probably due to being in that moldy hell-hole yesterday. We did a so-called ”drop and go”, which is when you unload the bus and you take all you will need for…

Day 10 Lisbon

Woke up with a headache today. Perhaps because of the heat in the bus. We seem to be having issues with the air-condition system. A bottle of water and a cup of bus-coffee made it slightly better. The venue today…

Day 9 Madrid

Went for a walk to Lidl with Rikard, had to buy some shower stuff. Made a pot of coffee at the venue when I came back. Had a cup while watching Sunday with Ola on YouTube. Then had another cup…

Day 8 Barcelona

Very long drive from Switzerland to Spain, but here we are. Sunny and warm. Met some friends right as I got out of the bus. Signed records and took some photos.  The coffee machine at the venue was interesting, you…

Day 7 Monthey

Beautiful weather in a beautiful place. Been here before, but can’t really remember when. Could have been with Kamelot, perhaps?  Went for a walk for about 45 minutes. It was nice to get some fresh air.  Venue coffee today was a…
