RIVS TOUR, FEB 08: DJ Grimm in the haus
Day 1 of tour... flew through the night; Indianapolis to Memphis, Memphis to Amsterdam. I never can sleep on planes. They had the screen's in the seat facing you. So you can choose what movie you want to watch. I was excited because they had the sequel to Elizabeth and Assassination of Jesse James (with King Ink's music)... figured that would devour five of the six hours. But, no... Elizabeth was 'edited for content' and Jesse James was The Santa Claus instead for some reason.
Yet they showed Eastern Promises unedited, including that brutal full-frontal fight scene with Vigo. As, well.
Landed at Schiphol in Amsterdam, met up with Felix, drove to Bremen (I don't remember it), and are in a really nice venue called Spedition.
I am delirious and exhausted, but if we jsut stay up and go to bed normally later, we will avoid jetlag.
I hope Michael from Twisted Knister comes ot the show tonight. He has this badass 3"CDR vending machine here, similar to the one Sarah and Edwin were talking about.
LOTS of photos will be posted in conjunction with this LJ, over at my FLICKR page.
More soon.
Gotta go drive to the train station... more soon.
