Europe is cold and rocking!

Here we are in Schaffhausen (i think i spelled it right) after the show and it’s the best one yet! The crowd was awesome! It’s a beautiful city in the north of Switzerland by the German border. It’s raining so it’s not quite as cold as I thought it would be. I figured it’d be covered in snow by now and freezing. It’s our 3rd show in Europe now and we seem to building up to something really cool. The first show in Zug had literally 15 people there. But one of them was a 10 year old kid who rocked and danced ALL night! We went back to France and played to a hungry crowd that made up for the night before. And then tonight was a great step up from there. It’s weird how much Christmas stuff was up in Brazil but it’s not until it gets cold and we get to europe that they seem to make it feel like Christmas. It’s hard to get the feeling when it’s 80 degrees and 40 percent humidity I guess.

But here everything is lit up and it’s feeling very seasonal so we busted out the christmas tunes in the set last night and now we’re rocking those too.

Here we are back in Europe

Two plane rides later and we’re back in Europe. It’s pretty cold but not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. No snow either, go figure. Anyway, Brazil was a great time. We got to do the meat attack dinner the night before our show in Sao Paolo. Meat attack, for those of you who haven’t experienced it, is when you sit down to dinner, flip a little dial from red to green and then you’re besieged by waiters carrying skewers of meat to your table, non-stop, until you flip the dial back to red . It’s all really great cuts and it’s all delicious. There’s beef, pork, lamb, chicken and a huge bar with sea food, sushi, etc. The waiters come to each person and ask you if you want what’s on the skewer. You say yes, they cut you off a piece or two or three, again until you tell them to stop, and then the next guy hits you up. It’s incredible. It’s Fogo de Chau on crack and we had the best time. Our show in Sao Paolo was great. A big crowd and we hung out in the dressing room til 4 or something talking and stuff. Good times!

It’s nice to be back in Europe though, probably because it’s just so much more familiar to us. But there’s definitely a weird vibe around here since they’re having such a bad time economically. It’s rough all over but in a region where they recently switched to a unified currency and they’re already talking about scrapping it, it carries a little bit darker tone than just hard times. We met up with Antoine which is always a pleasure and I’m looking forward to having him tour manage us again. Still can’t get the desire to be home though because I know Twylla is going to be there when we get back and I’m really anxious to see her and spend some quality family time.
