tour du jour (the Danish weeks)

So, Ireland went off w/out a hitch! Four shows, 110 fans, mega good times. Now, the band is in Denmark.

We do pretty well here for being outsiders. Our last CD, "With All Due Respect" was released over here and with two previous tours, we're starting to make a name for ourselves. One telling moment was last night, when we played a new song, "Rosie", which we've recorded for our next album (and thus has not been released yet), and some audience members already know the words! How could this be?? After the show, I spoke with a coulple of folks, who told me that they knew "Rosie" from seeing us play it on the CBS Early Show last month - they streamed it on the web. Awesome!!

I'm hoping that someone from Framus Guitars will drive up from Germany to see me. Framus are made in Germany, but I believe they're located too far south to just cruise up to Denmark for a night. Still, it'd be cool to show them their guitars in action...

Alrighty, gotta close so I can make the bus for the next stop. No rain!!
