Hey folks,

We've just arrived from our mini tour which was probably the heaviest experience in our band's history. Firstly, we'd like to explain why we had to cancel our Sunday's show in Szczytno.

While In Other Climes was rocking the stage in Szczytno, we stucked in Saldus, Latvia due to our van's failure. Our problems started on the way to Zvera fest on Saturday when the clutch simply stopped working. Luckily, we found one Estonian guy who took our car on tow with his camper and left us in front of the nearest auto service. As the whole thing took place in the evening, we had to wait whole night in our van until the service will open in the morning. According to local mechanic's diagnosis, the clutch simply lacked some liquid. After filling it in, we continued.

After next 50 km we explored that our problem was not really solved, so after each stop we had to push the van to start the engine and shift the gears. Finally we reached Zvera after couple of hours basing just on this primitive way of working. As after the show we were not able to drive away in any manner whatsoever, we decided to leave our van in the forest and wait for local car mechanic. Finally, he showed up two days later...

Nevertheless, we must say we really enjoyed our show at Zvera and very much liked its atmosphere. Great thanks go out to the whole Festiva's crew, especially Kaplis and his parents who hosted us in their home for a few days.

If any of you have some pics or videos from our last week's shows, please get in touch with us!
