First show, Debaser Malmö, lot of nerves, a lot to think about. The ballroom curtain we use as a backdrop was excellent at some of these shows, especially in Malmö, Berlin & Duisburg.

Pretty good crowd, although they stayed away from the stage. Maybe to much Fogerty, and too little Bananarama for some of you hipsters?

I love my new guitar rack and my baby stars (feels like pushing an extra fuzz pedal. Pedal to the metal.)

Another pic from Debaser. Carinas pad looks a bit like the ELO spaceship.

We stayed up all night after Debaser, and we tried to re-pack the mini-van until we found the right way to do it. A lot like Tetris. A drunk guy tried to ram me in high speed with his bike, didn't crush my arm by the hair. We had some nearly-lethal bike-experience on this tour. Gotta be aware.

Outside MAU club, Rostock.

I think this is during "Jets" cause we're both working like crazy chipmunks on the Moogs.

Per being peppy after the show in Rostock.

Pesca & Torben (Computer) & Åsa the day after the show in Rostock.

Me and Per tries out a different car-packing/Tetris combination. You gotta give it to us, we have a lot of stuff for just 4 people on stage, also this time the car was smaller than usual. But I think we got it after this
Tetris-ing.

Two days off in Berlin/Friedrichschain- A cute pic of Carina at one of the million great bars in Berlin.

Åsa in a red sofa, feeling the presence of carinas camera, after show in Hamburg.

Making plans. "well... if noone shows up today it's because we didn't bring a bigger bubble-machine. Next time we'll rent 10 bubblemachines just to show them bastards!"

Bop-it! Outside Duisburg, where our old GPS Gull-Britt decided to drop dead.

On the roof in a Duisburg apartment some bands liked to leave their marks. I have no idea who Bubonix are, or how long it took for Thorsten, Sara and Tina to draw it, but I got to give them props for their work. Never Can't Say Goodbye! I know. I was hard for us as well. Gull-Britt didn't take it very well either.

After show Magdeburg.

Last show. Bassy in Mitte, Berlin. Loved the place, the owner and the soundguy.

Berlin we love you.

Last photo, sums up the tour. Joy. We will not be back to tour for quite a while. A bit sad, but I hope next album will mean a lot of more touring, in other parts of the world as well, you north americans know what i'm talking about. Stay updated! Lots and lots of love, Ola & MB
