Hi my good friends

Just some words from our tour in Scotland.

We headed for Prestwick Friday the 27th on June.

We landed at 4 PM and my new internet-friend Alex sat in his wheelchair waiting for us. I just put on the net, why not hire a guy for 300 £ to drive us for the one week instead of hiring a car for 300 £. And got a reply from Paul Webster, a photographer from Glasgow. He said he got a friend who was able to do the job for us. I contacted him and there he was waiting for us. He has a 10 seated van, plenty of space for us.

We loaded the van and went off to Dundee. Had a stop for diesel and some beers for the road :-) We arrived Dundee 8 PM and find the venue Deja Vu. We unloaded the van and tuned guitars and got a cold beer in our hand.

It was another Norwegian band named Hard Luck Band who was opening the happening, then it was Robert Penn, a big star from USA. Well... he could have tuned his guitar before he went on stage, but ok, he was doing an ok gig.

I met some great friends from my earlier visit in Scotland and had a great chat.

Then finally we got the thumbs up for entering the stage.

It was about 500 people waiting, nervous ???.... NO WAY. We had the audience in our hand from the very first note. We played a two hour set and then we got time out from Bob the manager, they turn the place over to Night Club modus :-)

More to come later

My family and I are going to Scotland at our vacation, stay for about three weeks, hiring a car and driving from Prestwick up to Hopeman. But first we will take a stop at Arbroath the 29 th of june. I have some friends at the Dundee bluesfest and my wife said "take the car and visit your friends in Dundee while we take a rest in Arbroath" Then we will take a stop in Aberdeen for a coupla days. After 7 days in Hopman we will drive down to Glouster visiting some friends and hopefully partisipate in the bluesfest who is going on there in the middle of july :-)
So I may take a stand up jam at the bluesfest in Dundee the 29-30 th of june :-)
Hmmmm.. I also have some tunes in my head that I want to record and use in my new cd, studio is booked from october 2007.
Well that was a little about what`s going on :-)
