A morning in Martigny.
David was the first one out of bed. Very cool venue, castle-like feeling with stonewalls and a nice stage. We went for a walk in the city. Found this very old church with a huge cross outside, of course we had to „curse“.
Then we sat in the bus and watched movies for a while. Tobias went up to an old castle up on a hill, it was a very nice view over the snowy alp mountains.
It was a sold out show tonight.
Excellent!

Today we woke up in Ravenna – Italy.
David, Matti & Martin went to a bar to drink some really nice Italian coffee while Tobias and Thomas went for a walk in town and got lost as usual…
Typical Saturday in Italy – tons of crazy Italians just waiting to go berzerk and headbang to Dismember. Lots of stagedivers who stepped on our nice old heavy metal pedals while running up on stage. This was one of the better gigs so far on the tour.
We had to leave quite early after the show but still we got time to have a few beers and talk to fans after the show. Before the bus left, all the bands and crew stood and watched while the most drunk guy was carried out to a car waiting to drive him home.
More passed out fans to follow…

Nova Gorcia in Slovenia today.
Martin bought tons of cheep cigarettes to bring home. We heard of the assault on Pain today and Martin called up their bassplayer Johan to check if everything was ok.
We met a friend from Kroatia who had traveled 400 km to see us. The place was packed with people going crazy during the gig.
Afer the gig we sat in the bus and chilled when a crazy drunk fan showed his appreciation by licking the dirty bus window.
