Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
Standing around with Americans watching Brazilian and Swedish bands play on Japanese instruments while drinking Dutch beer, in Germany - what could be more Canadian than that? According to In Flames, it was their largest headlining concert ever. A damn good show.

For the first time in my life, today I was paid, by bar staff, to drink beer. Seriously - on at least two occasions, I would walk up to the bar, order a beer, and be given the beer and money in return. Without giving them any money. Without this being a mistake.

(There was a 1€ deposit on the glasses. Many of the moshpit monkey would leave their glasses, throw their glasses, or ust hand their glasses to me because I was convenient when they went to dive back in. This turned out to be profitable - or, rather, it would have been profitable, but I drank all the profits.)

And now, a comment that will only make sense to metalheads.
Ways to get your ass kicked at a Sepultura concert: Ask when Max turned into a giant black guy. Second runner up, which one guy there actually did: Show up in a Brazilian football jersey with the name "Cavalera" on the back.

I probably should make more comments, but it's 1:30 now and I need to get on a train to catch a plane to catch another plane to catch a bus to hitch a ride home from my brotehr in about 4.5 more hours, so I'm going to bed.

See y'all from the frozen north, where the keyboards all make sense.

Home. I live.
It is almost 5am, Foolish Inferior German Time.

For some reason, my body is working using that clock.

It must be punished.

But I'm at home with a real computer with a sane keyboard. I like that.
