Hamburg, you have the most ridiculous Starbucks in Europe. Nay: the world. I'm told this historical building that has been raped by this international corporation used to be a Burger King. I think Burger King was more fitting. Much more suited to royal nobility. Perhaps the hierarchical leaders couldn't pay the rent. Zing.
Walked around downtown Hamburg with Nobeard, Ian and Gaz from Alestorm searching for some sort of guitar shop. We found none. However, we did find plenty of fashion outlets catering to women of fanciful high class taste. Coincidentally, on the other side of town we found many sex shops eagerly willing to draw us in with their private video booths and dildos a plenty. We begrudgingly turned down their invites and headed back to the venue.
'Twas a sold out show tonight. We're a bit beside ourselves as our tour date shirt has already sold out and the replacements will not arrive for another two days. This misfortune aside, it's a great sign. w00t.
There are rumors of us coming back to Europe before our confirmed stint at the end of December with Dark Tranquility and Heaven Shall Burn, but I can't go into any further detail yet...
