Oh yes two nights of hotel      18/10/2013

People starting to get really crumpy for not having a good night sleep for few days has been affecting the atmosphere but not anymore. Since today there are two nights of sleeping in warm bed and then the trip back to Helsinki in a ship...so no worries!

We arrive to this paradise like- hotel by a beach. There's a sign by the front door that this hotel is one the historic hotel's in the world. This is interesting, let's get inside....
Smiling receptionist takes us in and inform us there's a sauna and bathtub when needed. Thank you!! This is life! But unfortunately my will for sleeping is bigger than getting in a bathtub so I leave the other guys the pleasure to enjoy it - I'm going to bed...right now. I plan waking up in an hour and go take some new photos but when the time comes up and the alarm turns on in my cellphone I just keep on sleeping until I got half an hour time to be at the van again.

Not for long we're at the 'Bluebox', the venue we're going to play tonight here in Grimstad. The welcoming to the place is what I've always wanted: Friendly staff. they are right away introducing themselves to us and when we get upstairs my jaw drops. There is a table filled with snacks and fruits and sandwiches for everyone and in five minutes after our arriving there's this wonderful manager of catering of the venue asking what pizza do we want after our show. Everything seems perfect today!

Even though the schedule is tight again and we have to do everything as quickly as possible it don't bother today.This venue looks cool and I'm feeling good also...this night is going to be great! Suddenly we are doing a quick linecheck and not for long the doors open for the crowd.

Basic getting ready rituals - water, some exercise moves and the war mask on. When Pike's edge were playing I started being worried if there's no crowd during our show but when got on the stage from behind the curtains there you were - dear norwegian people. And some of you even knew some of the words to our songs. Thank you, you were awesome audience!!

Hanging at the merch-desk for a while and there was this wonderful in the mid forties-lady who wanted our cd so bad she went to find some money from somewhere when heard the credit-card won't do at the merch-desk.

I go to the backstage and there is a pile of pizza and dear member's of PE and some of our own BB guys waiting, so I join them with pleasure...after eating the delicious and healthy dish we go back to the hotel...like night after night but this time we get to sleep there for tonight....NOT! BB is having a party in Pyry's and Janne's room - there we eat leftovers, drink beer and watch some documentary of 80s' rock music...oh yeah! And ofcourse talking about chicks, pussy, farting and other genital parts..basic stuff...Eero even pretended to be a monkey for a few seconds but I don't go there at all...would be too traumatic...

I'll go back to my room and surf in the internet 'til 4am until my eyes won't stay open......
