So just got back from 2 and a half weeks away from reality with my friends in dead swans. Had the best time ever, met some awsome people and some people who really sucked (cliff) nah he is alright. We had some very long drives that meant we had to sleep in the van overnight while travvelling in a piece of shit van that drove at a top speed of 60mph downhill and with the wind behind us so meant it took even longer. We all sufferd from this, a cramped van, everyone smelled like horse shit, bruised knees and ankles, sleeping on the floor of the van if your lucky enough, unwashed and suprising not that many arguments occured during the drives. Our ROCKER driver Cliff (burton) drove 20hours nonstop from west germany to sweeden and didn't complain once........? he is a little bit strange but an awsome dude. He had 4 toes on his right foot from a motorbike accident with his ROCKER girlfriend at the time and he doesnt seem anything wrong with having a WHITE POWER section on his ipod with 46 bands in the genre. But apart from that and smeeling like shit he did an awsome job. We had time to walk around the cities we were playing in which is always an enjoyable and memorable part of going on tour for me, having photograph oppertunities and enjoying travvelling with friends and just hanging out.
The shows were awsome, played to a busy and lively crowd on most nights which always means alot to me and some nights were better than expected even when we were feeling tired and drained. Ive never been any good at remembering what has happend and then writing about it, but i took some photos while we were away and got them developed yesterday so i should have them scanned in and up in next few days. ROCK ON
