Hey boys & girls!
We’ve made it back to Sweden after our 2 week European tour and man did we have a good time! The Italian heat was crazy, we’re talking 40 degrees Celsius, can’t believe that we were still standing after the shows but somehow we managed, haha. Sooo many good memories that I can’t even tell you half of it so I wont even try,but some of the highlights have been; amazing garlicshots and pizzasauce shots at Subway to Peter’s in Chemnitz, The best dirty burgers ever at White trash fast food in Berlin, Drinking wine in the car, The Italian pig that we bought, The highly advanced lottery system we had for who was gonna drive the car next day, The Italian pasta, Meeting old friends and new, Having a day off in Italy at the beautiful mountain-spring, and of course all the people coming to the shows. Thank you goes out to everyone coming to the shows and everyone involved with booking us.
A special thank you goes out to the Italian mafia consisting of: Astrid, Franz, Bruno, Silva and Lorenzo! A huge thank you also goes out to: Olivier, Kathi and the Chemnitz boys! And finally, thank you Robert from Kissnrun bookings!
Now we’re gonna enjoy the swedish summer,
Later,
Jocke

In Italy people often eat in large groups, not as in Sweden were we prefer a calm and lonesome atmosphere
