Dortmund and Erfurt


Insane catering tonight in Dortmund. Look at all those options! God I love the way the Euro's do metal shows. Tonight was the first extended show in which Einherjer and Moonsorrow were added to the lineup. It was great to finally see Einherjer. I had heard many good things about their live show and they did not dissapoint. Moonsorrow had a 45 minute set and I am pleased to report they played only two songs. A 30 minute song, and a 15 minute song. Gotta love 'em. Its been too long. Their epicness eclipses the rest of the bands on this tour by leaps and bounds. Its a bummer that we only get to share a stage two more times with these guys.

Chris from Alestorm went to the hospital this morning complaining of stabbing pain behind his eyes. He came back in time to play the show, but had to borrow my sun glasses because his pupils had been dilated. Afterward, some chick and her boyfriend tried stealing them. Thankfully, Chris, in his half-drunken state, remembered that they were in fact mine and rectified the situation. People, get your own sunglasses. You do not need ours.

Can't wait for Belgium tomorrow for awesome beer and another extended show.
