Back from Berlin...

Well, I'm back...and I can honestly say that this was probably one of the best if not THE best trip over to pond to Berlin.

It was a week of soaring highs...I've been there many times but the rest of us haven't, but everyone connected instantly and it's as if we all had been playing together for years...everyone pitched in and helped and made the experience even better that i thought it could be.

There was so much crossing over between people and bands it blurred into one cohesive unit.

From myself playing drums for Nora's show, to Nora singing at my show, to Dina and Nora both singing for !Bang Elektronika,
to both Andy and Dina singing for my Datafreq gig, and the fact that both the Bang Elektronika reunion and the first Beautiful Spies gigs happened there was absolutely monumental.

The first show was great, I was nervous but had a alot of fun playing, I was really nervous playing drums for Nora Below,
but I had a blast and that show rocked...Nora is really talented and deserves to go places :)

There were a few glithches as expected, but I think those was one of many "meant to be" things that ended up totally changing things for the better.

The craziest one went like this...

On the Friday, we had a crazy 6 hour sound check(!) due to everything from electrical problems to cable issues.

Dina and I went back to change and get Andy's stuff, as Andy volunteered to stay and try to get the issues resolved.

When Dany came back to pick us up she told us that the ENTIRE PA (!!!) blew, forcing cancellation of the show.

We thought all was lost when it was suggested that we do the show Saturday...it turned out the club was free,
so the Nadjia the promoter and Eric the main sound manager worked really hard to get this happening.

It was an incredible trip and one I'll never ever forget, please check out the videos below,
hopefully I can get more videos and pictures up soon but i must sleep for en entire day lol

Cheers !

Dave
