What is this???

This day has been spent trying to pack everything...Now the clock is almost well past midnight, and I cant relax nor go to sleep....

This far i got this:
Clothes (despite the booklet to our latest album, we do wear clothes normally)
Shoes (same as above...)
Toothbrush and toothpaste (as my drummer Rackarn found out a few years ago, just menthol cigarettes or "Minttu" wont do) 
Sleeping bag (you never now where you end up sleeping)
Air bed (any couch/sofa is ok! But every night for 3weeks in a row....sorry)
Shampoo (a substance for those who still got hair on their heads, cleans it, i think)
Passport (so that we have something beautiful to show for the border police when they search our van for drugs)
Painkillers (faster than a bullet, terrifying scream, enraged and full of anger, he's half man and half machine)
Hospital insurance card (to show the doctors if I need an liver transplant...no, not funny, to much rock cliche, sorry)
Insurance papers and owner certificates for the tour bus (IMPORTANT!)

Tomorrow I'm gonna load the van with all our equipment. There will be drums, merchandise, amplifiers and cabinets. After the van is loaded me and Rackarn will head for Stockholm where our singer and guitarist lives. Then we'll have to boldly go where no man has gone before...(France)


Sooooo,    If you haven't got bored by reading this blaberish yet, you might ask yourself, what kind of blog this is, and why?

My name is Affe. I play electric bass in the band VIETCONG PORNSÜRFERS. Tomorrow we will go out on our 4th tour in Europe. That is what this blog will be about, the touring and everything that happens around the gigs on the road. If you want more info about the band: www.vietcongpornsurfers.com

The reason I decided that I will try to write a blog during this tour is because we have got some complaints on previous tours for not reporting enough. But instead of an typical tour dairy on a bands webpage that only says stuff like: "Last night was a blast, thank you XXX(insert town name)" again and again I will try to do it a bit different and more honest.
A lot of misspellings and bad grammars are guaranteed any way. 



So, I made a blog for everything bad and good that happens on tour with my band and, one by one I'm going to tell you all about our successes and mistakes. I'm just trying to be a rock star. My name is Affe.
