I can't believe that Mr. Green actually was late! I guess it's like that being a big shot manager allowing yourself to be entertained by busty models on a friday night. His lame excuse of needing a close shave didn't fool the band for a second. Besides two minor stops on the way to get more beer, the ride to Stockholm was a smooth one in the capable hands of Mr. Green and we managed to arrive at Hellbar right on time.
This night we had a special treat by being supported by a young girl, Janine, and her acoustic guitar. She almost stole the entire evening with her beautiful voice and a beauty that didn't need the ridiculous amount of make up that Mike use for his transformation from whatever he is off stage to the pretty boi of rock'n roll that he is on stage.
At showtime a wild bunch greeted us and we put foot to ass with a set of Here & Now, Ashes To Ashes, The Thin Ice, Rush You, Levitate, The Morning Show, Feels Like Home, Let's Go, Apocalypse, Misery, Follow The Sun, Alive. For the first encore the band geared up with "Ghost In The Machine" and the brand new track "I Am". Down on his knees, Micke at Hellbar pleaded us to do "Let's Go" for a second encore... your wish is our command so... Let's Go!
After the party, on the long way back home, the band went into a carbohydrate frenzy stopping at a local hamburger restaurant, feasting on onion rings and french fries. Can I have an extra can of fat with that please? Much later I recall a bag of crisps and some garlic hot dogs... oh my god...
