HAMBURG - Markthalle

A long drive from Eindhoven to Hamburg, so the night was spent on sitting in the bus as usual. In the afternoon we arrived
to Hamburg Markthalle and for our pleasure we saw that the gig had been moved from small hall to a big hall, nice work
The Nile's! Some loading and checking the space and we were free to head to do some Hamburg sightseeing.

Some Finnish friends of Jukka flew to check out this gig, so we had a mission to play a good gig then... And, of course, so
we did. One of the best dates on this tour, even though our sound-man Kuuma-Kalle was not so pleased about the hall sound and
his work on this gig. The crowd was also enthusiastic, so we´re sure we made a lot of new German friends here!

After the gig we had a very good mood on the backstage and the band members spoke to themselves like "best gig!", "the bestest" etc.
and when Kalle arrived to backstage we asked him enthusiastically "how did u like our gig?" - The honest answer as always: "Shit!".
We laughed, different opinions as always. But in the end he fixed his opinion and told that it was only about the sounds.... :)

After the gig Markus, Kalle and Harri headed towards the city centrum again in the quest of finding the best döner kebab ever, as
Hamburg is famous for them. Though the reise wasn´t success, only these three blokes won´t find the kebab house in the kebab capital city
of Europe... Toni and Jukka were spending the night with freak Finnish "alcoholist-friends" and then after enough drinks Toni disappeared.
When we had a bus call and we should have left to travel to Denmark we just couldn´t find the man anywhere and he didnt answer to phone either.
We had some serious views about drunken session bassists dropped down dead or something like that and we even talked with the local cool Polizei's
about this case.

...and then after two hours of seeking - the man called to us that he was just with one german girl.. Fuck that! :)


DENMARK - Stundenterhuset

The Aalborg city was nice and cool old town with lots of medieval buildings, and we had a great timing on visiting this city first time - There was today a football champions league
match Aalborg vs. Manchester united... So, the town was full of aggressive football fans and drunken people.

We had a 10 000 people on our gig, but just outside the venue, as there was a big football screen on a market square just next to the Studenterhuset venue.
But, luckily there was also metalheads inside the venue watching our gig.

Nice town, good gig, lots of pissing drunken football fans next to our bus and that was it - the aal"björn"borg!
