From Hamburg to Berlin

So we did go shopping and Hamburg didn´t let us down. The only problem was that it suddenly became really cold. And please don't think that hey, you're a Finn, you can take it. I can't.

Girls freezing in downtown Hamburg. But also looking good.

It was great to be back gigging at the Fliegende Bauten where we were performing  also last summer.  Only this time the tent wasn't as hot as last time… and I managed to break my shoe just as I was doing my best boogie-woogie moves. No worries, no one got hurt.

Backstage food. Thumbs up.
The audience in Hamburg wasn't as easy-flirted as the previous crowds, maybe big-city-audiences are more picky since they do have happenings to chose between. Michael Bublé was gigging in town the same evening as we were, I wonder how he felt when part of his audience came to our show instead.

Then we were on the road again…
…and Jonte of course needs his toys to keep him satisfied and quiet….

...and then we came to Berlin!


Ahhh...


We were all very excited about our gig here and the place we were performing at, Kesselhaus, was fantastic. It is something special about Berlin, especially if you are in the performing business. You have to do Berlin at least once in your lifetime.


Maybe our next cd cover?  (where Linda will have a solo)

We were performing at an a cappella festival and had the pleasure to share the evening with MuSix, the a cappella band from Berlin.

Watching MuSix soundcheck. 

Then it was our turn and of course we started with a short warm-up in the dressing room.

A beautiful version of You raise me up, performed by Jonte. The singer from MuSix was amazed.

After that we raised the bar with some streching…


…and if you look really close you can see that the arranger of the festival had put a note up in the right corner where it says Tervetuloa. It means welcome in Finnish. Very nice. And indeed we felt very welcomed and we hope to be back in Berlin very soon again.

MuSix and us. It was a fun night.  Let´s hope for a soon return to Berlin.

Today we sat in the car for 10 hours and now we are somewhere in France.  Tomorrow I have to learn French.  Good night.
