But we are ok with it, the German team were better than the Swedes. We celebrated Midsummer regardless of the result . Herring, salmon, caviar and lots of schnapps backstage at Southside. we were surprised to see that many people at our show since we played when the big game was on. Perhaps there were no big tv screens on the festival?
Anyhow, the day after we came up to the Bremen area. Blazing sun and little chance to find any shade. We teamed up with the Brian Jonestown Massacre boys backstage, watched their short but fine show and then just waited. By 4.30 it was time on stage and I think it went rather fine. At least until the sun came back from behind some clouds. Blazing straight onto the stage, I almost fainted by the end of the show. You brave people in the audience, I hope you drank a lot of water, not only Becks....
So thanks to all of you people who came to cheer for us and a wish for safe rides to the Jonestown boys!
