Leipzig, Germany

We arrived in Hellraiser venue in Leipzig around 10am and i went out of the bus to get some air. Shit, it was freeeeeezing!!! And when they let us inside the venue it was exactly the same temperature as outside, in the catering, backstage, toilets, showers, everywhere! Welcome to another day in paradise.

We didn't soundcheck today either as "someone" didn't wake up until 6pm! No names, but this is the same "someone" that caused the "no soundcheck" yesterday as well. If we wouldn't have the In-Ear systems and digital console, this would not have been possible. Anyway, it was a long and cold day and it looked funny when people wear jackets, gloves and hats at dinner…

I think this was the third time i played this venue, at least. I remember we had a very good show here last year and this time was no exception. But i don't think we ever got this many people in this particular venue before! But today we have to do soundcheck. At least i hope we do. Well, i'm gonna soundcheck today, even if i have to do it alone!

Tonight we are in Hamburg, tomorrow in Saarbrücken, Friday in Stuttgart, Saturday in Bochum and Sunday in Tilburg. Then the tour is over and we go back home to Sweden to lick our wounds on Monday. Friday will be a big day for me.

What's left of the poor lamps in our bus... they had a rough life in the end
 
"Glenn Nilsson Single Malt Something" (according to Kimmo Ahola anyway...)
 
My bunk in the bus, actually a bit like sleeping in a coffin, but more noisy! :-)

Vilken tur att du sover så djupt, med alla dessa galningar omkring dig ;) Bara några dagar till och då kan du sova i din egen säng, det kommer att vara så skönt!
Och vad händer på fredag då?

Svar: ja! :-)På fredag släpps plattan med 8thSin, "Cosmogenesis". Det har jag väntat på att få göra i 6 år nu! Det är bandet som Johan och jag hade innan Pain.

Jaså, stort grattis! Och vilken musikstil är det? Jag vill säkert kolla på det, men, om det är metal, tvivlar jag på att det kommer att hittas i Belgien, det är inte särskilt ett metalälskande land, tyvärr :/
Finns det på nätet då?

Svar: Det roliga är att det är ett skivbolag i Nederländerna som släpper det, så det borde ju finnas även i Belgien :-)

Jag har hittat websidan, det ser jättebra ut! Några intressanta gäster på skivan, även din dotter :)
Men jag hittar ingenting på YouTube.

Svar: det finns nog ingenting på youtube. Men den kommer att finnas på Spotify sen när den är släppt
