December 1, England, 9.30. Believe it or not, I am drinking cider with Hittavainen, a man who usually gets out of bed 2 hours before showtime. The reason may be the fact that we had to get off the bus on the ferry anyway and we just haven't gone to bed again. And of course we bought some tax free cider. Now we've been listening the recording of the last night's show in Amsterdam. It is quite revealing. Hmm. Good or bad thing? Interesting at least. Yesterday wasn't the best show of the tour. Some techical difficulties through the show and a couple of clear mistakes as well. Atmosphere was good as always in the Netherlands. And in the Netherlands you can actually smell the "atmosphere"...
During the day a friend of mine took us to the record store and Matson and myself managed to buy quite a lot of stuff again. I finally found for example the 3CD box set of Phil Lynott's Grand Slam. Cool.
After the show in the bus I realised that it actually was December, so I prepared everyone a hot mug of glühwein. Nice.
Now Miikka joined us and we changed the music to Popeda again. I guess it's time to have a few more.
Oh yeah, Battlelore changed a guitarist yesterday. Jussi had to leave to work so they got replacement. we were introduced twice but I still can't remember his name. He has dreadlocks like Jussi so he's a perfect replacement! So Battlelore now has two replacements in the band. Any longer tour and the band will have no actual member with them.
