My new life in London
So I have now had the experience of going ‘back home’ to a city that has never been my home (nor feels like it for that matter). But London has its charms, and now that I have had some time to settle in, I dare say I am growing to like the place. The best [...]
Holland My Love
Our second trip to Holland was supper fun and we played tourists while poor Mossuto stayed home sick in bed. We played some music, we saw bands, we wondered the streets, we went to a lot of music shops and partied like the best of them… But it was clear we were all ready to go [...]
You would never go barefoot in Paris
Paris had moments of amazing beauty, but I for one prefer raunch over romance! I would have given anything for a dirty rock n’ roll band and my bare feet in the grass. We walked clear across the city; with the intention of seeing some sights and then checking out some live music. It’s a city of Wine Bars and DJs and we [...]

We had this great idea that we would get up really early and drive to Berlin. We decided to rush straight there and oh how my heart yearned to stop in Dresden (the Dresden Dolls always make me think of my beloved old drummer (and current friend, KB). Alas we would be coming back through [...]
Day Trip in Amsterdam
How nice is it to say I had a ‘day trip to Amsterdam’. But that is exactly what happened. We checked in with the cops who sent us on a wild goose chase to town hall to get permits. Unfortunately the permit office closes by noon and so we just missed it. As we had [...]
Hurray for Utrecht
The next day we got ourselves organised and did some street performance. We are ‘musicians’ and by no means ‘professional buskers’. And since we play with a full kit and amps it is hard to find the best location. Although we found it early, we drove around for an hour looking for car access to [...]
