SUNDSVALL

10 days ago we had to cancel a gig in Avesta because of a bankrupcy.
We got a new gig in sundsvall instead.
With lack of time to promote the gig and alot of other arrangements in town we got nervous.
It went pretty well after all!!

About 500 people came to see us tonight. that´s not bad at all.
We had a great party afterwards and I would like to take this opportunity to thank Stadshuset for their great support and service.
You guys are awesome and you do a great job! See you soon.
That goes for all of ya!

FALUN

Back in Falun again.
I remember a long time ago when we played here.
We got here in a white Mazda 626 and it wasn´t comfortable at all.
We also got a flat tire on the car and it was quite a trip!

This time we arrive in our beautiful Bus.
No flat tires and a whooole lot more comfort.
That´s why the bus is our backstage area this gig... the local we´re playing in is freeeeezing and the backstage area is almost non-existent.
We do a soundcheck before we get to our hotel in Borlänge!

After dinner we just hang out on our rooms.
There´s time for a couple of beers and a bloody mary before we have to get back to magasinet in Falun.

The local is still freezing. damn.
Plan Three tries to warm things up but it´s a mission impossible. They do a good job trying at least.

So, it´s time for us to get up on stage...
The intro is rolling... the crowd is screaming... then there is... NOTHING!
Mattias guitaramp gave up. it is dead.
Our backlinetechnician restarted it and it´s alive again.. thank God.
2 tracks later it´s time for my guitaramp to give up!!
The worst thing is that mine dosen´t come back to life!?
We have to take in "THE OTHER ONE"... it works too but the sound is pretty far from the real deal if you know what I mean.
So here we are.. broken amps and freezing nuts!
I wanna come back to Falun and show them what we´re all about but it will have to be in the summertime because I want to keep my balls.

ANOTHER HEART ATTACK!

Yeah... it´s like one month or so...
Someone must really like us since were here again right?
It´s ok, we like Gävle.
Fact is that the last time we played here alot of people couldn´t see us because the place was filled up within one hour.
There was KAOS you might say.
I guess you could say this is a extra concert for those who didn´t make it the last time.

Well...
We´re hangin out by the pool on the hotel. We eat some sushi and then it´s time to rock.
It wasn´t as much Kaos this time... it worked just fine. We even got up on stage in time. ha ha.

I hope you guy´s enjoed yourself and remember to send me pictures from the gig if there is any!! ok?
Bye for now

KARLSKOGA

This is the fifth time for tAKiDA in Karlsoga and the crowd is still CRAZY!!!
It was fun as it always is and if only Sweden could have won that darn game of soccer this night would have been superb.
Now it was just awesome.
