The Rock @ Copenhagen, Denmark
The Danish venue was very cool. Old building with tarred stairways up and down, which looked cool, but very uncomfortable for me and my crutches. Nevertheless, cool place, and very, very professional FOH guy! The sound check was over in a couple of minutes, didn't need to explain anything or take any crap. Everything worked right off the bat and the sound was awesome!
Had our own backstage this time, ours was an old dungeon. Having an own backstage is very very important to me, because usually I like to take it easy, wipe the sweat off, grab a cold one and enjoy the silence for a moment. This time, as the place was reminiscent of a snakes and ladders game for a cripple, I took a well deserved nap before and after the gig. Not so rock n roll but fuck, it does take a toll on oneself, moving around in different venues, hotels, cars, shows etc etc for nearly a week with crutches and only one working leg.
The gig itself went great! The attendance was very low comparing to the Sweden gigs, mainly because there were a bigger show a couple of blocks away, and well, it was sunday. But the ones that was watching seemed to enjoy themselves. Somebody from the audience said after the gig that this was the best gig that she's seen in three years! Nice!
Even though I only saw Denmark from the inside of a car and a venue, I fell in love with Copenhagen. Beautiful city, cool people and great culture! We must definitely come back some time even though I can't understand shit of the Danish language! Kamelåså!
Oh shit, I just ordered 1000 liters of milk... :S
