Beer, Chocolates and Diamonds...

If you have not guessed by the title of today's entry I am in fact currently in Belgium, Antwerp to be exact. I have done this gig before, which is an old school velodrome, but have never had a day off here. Now that i have had a day off here i feel I have seen enough. It is a cute city in its own right, just a shade on the dodgy side. Lets just say that here apparently the birds have arms and its not surprising to find your wallet missing. It is also a lot like Amsterdam with its Red Light District and countless drunken blokes running around looking for either trouble or sex. Perhaps they find both and consider it a job well done.
I have heaps of photos to sort through and post from previous cities such as Berlin, Munich and now Antwerp. However for now, with four shows left to go before returning to Vancouver for a short break, i leave you with a link to a blog site that will have you rolling on the floor laughing in hysterics.

Venezia!

You know that it must be something pretty damn amazing for me to get up at 8am on a day off. Well if floating cities, romance, and a history that stretches back for 1000 years is on the bill, then my alarm clock is set! Venezia here I come!
Today I left the hotel around 8:30am and set off for the train station. Not only was I awake and out of the hotel early, but I was knowingly and willingly about to travel on a day off. Now navigating a foreign train station is pretty much a game in its own right, one that can go either way in my experience. Without too much of a hassle I had my ticket for Venzia St. Lucia in hand and camera charged for battle.

I had never been to Venice before today and am glad that I had such a beautiful day to get over there and walk around such a historical city. It was everything I pictured it to be and then some! I actually figured the bugs and smell would be worse given the stagnet water is in such supply. Perhaps that’s later on into the summer, for today was a perfect day!

I am going to leave on teaser shot of the 1000s I took today. If my connection was not so slow and frustrating I would post more. You will however just have to wait until high speed is back on the menu.

After 3 days off here in Italy tomorrow we play a rather unconventional show in the main piazza here in Verona. Its basically a smaller version of Roma’s Colliseum.

With one photo for you to look at , and more to come, I turn out the lights and say ciao to the day that it was…

Help! I need somebody!

This one is for my good friend Juice because i know that secretly he is a follower....
