Friday on my mind!

Fredag! dags att supa, lördag! Samma sak!

Today its Friday, last night we played the Le Galion in the city of Lorient. I checked google maps and I think the venue was just a few blocks from an old Atlantic u-bot base from the ww2. If I’m lucky I might trick the others guys in going and check it out before we leave.

This evening we will play in a small city called Callac. No one seems to know of the city nor have heard about it… on the bright side, the venue will take 600 persons, and we play with two French bands… So now you know, if you don’t hear anything more about this night it was a “success”…:P

It’s a risky thing going to a faraway country, playing rock music, and hope that people will show up. But don’t fear, the Vietcong Boys are the most daring and we face danger with straight backs! Like the day before yesterday, we had to cross two bridges higher that mount Everest and steeper than…I don’t know, they were steep, yes, very brave indeed. On top of the second bridge the smell of oil and something burnt got quite intense. Hasta la vista brave little sharkmobile me and Rackarn was thinking, and drove on. The next day on our way back out from the city of Le Havre we realized that it most have been the big industrial area with the big tower with flames on the top who made that smell, and not our beloved tour bus.

Since we are so fearless we also manage our own little operation Neptune. On Wednesday the 13^th in the year 2013, sometime around 4 o clock in the afternoon, we landed on Omaha Beach. Like real tourists, but still, a invasion is a invasion!

Björn took a souvenir from the beach in form of a little small stone. We will take turns and sleep with it until the end of the tour when we get home. Then we are going to sign it and sell it to the highest bidder on ebay. So start saving now and you might get lucky!

Now I have to go, hope you will miss me so. Hey ho

PS. The gigs has (of course) been blasts, if you absolutely need to know about them. DS
