Edinburgh Fringe - round two!

So it is finally decided. We are doing the Fringe festival this year as well!
We got the perfect slot at 22.25 in the Spiegeltent at the Assembly and it suits our new show ElectroVocal Circus just great! This will be a bit different from last years sophisticated Pink Noise at 18.05...

Now we just need to find a place to stay (since our last years green door apartment isn´t available...) and then book the flights and we are on our way!


When I, in the beginning of August,  slip into this outfit I wont take it off before the month is over. It is just too complicated. And let me introduce to you the blond Björn Borg aka Kasper R... Who said the headband is out of style? And Anna...well she has what we in Finland call tiukka pipo which in English would be something like tight hat. Which basically means she is the boss. 
And Jonte. I wont say anything about him because he should only be focusing on getting that Ramsten child delivered into this world NOW! 

Back with more news later.

Changes

All good things must come to an end.
We have had the pleasure to rehearse in this wonderful studio for many years but last week it was time for us to move out and on. Until the last minute of the last day we used the space as it is supposed to be used, we worked on a new arrangement. A heavy nightclub-medley, of course.

As you can see there is a camera in the background. Yes, there is a  new some kind of a documentary made about us, not quite sure yet what it will be but lets just say we have had some funny moments so far.

But as something old comes to an end something new begins. We have found a new "living room" for us, it is less a cappella and more rock-n-roll but that´s fine with us. And I guess the champagne will taste the same. Gregory is very happy, he thinks the sound is much better and the roading is easier.

The Finnish version of a vacuum cleaner. Anna is a beast when it comes to cleaning. I was trying to stay out of her way not only because I have a nasty cold but also because she is a bit scary when it comes to cleaning...

We are having a break from rehearsing now for some weeks. First there is Easter and all that, chocolate and food and eggs and pasha and baba and so on.
And then we are waiting for a little baby-fork to be born! Any day now Jonte will become a dad and we are all keeping our fingers and toes crossed that everything will go well. Anna and me are both pretty sure it will be a girl.

Some things never change.
Happy Easter!
