So far so good

Martedì, Luglio 10th, 2007

In the end our Sunfest main stage show went really well. We got absolutely everyone up and dancing, and CD sales went down very well too (apparently we were the second best selling artist at the Sunfest Cd tent). I liked the Roberta-crowd choreography on “Balla”, with people raising their arms, we need to make video of it next time! Meanwhile Paolo continues to take pictures off the audience…

Five Italians in London (Ontario)

Lunedì, Luglio 9th, 2007

We are in London, Ontario, to play Sunfest. There is a clear scent of England around here: every town near here has super-English names (Exeter, Chatham, Essex County and so on); in front of the Hilton a gentleman dressed as a Beefeater is permanently on duty, and there is even a bridge tournament going on! We got in yesterday and played the tour’s first two performances: the new lineup with drums seems to do well, people dance to us and have fun. Also, we have recovered almost all our instruments (almost - Medhin’s dj gear did not come in, hopefully they’ll deliver it to us later on today and we had to borrow replacements from the crew). Later on today we’ll play main stage - I can’t wait.

Some rest while we wait for our luggage…

We are in Detroit! All’s well, except Northwestern Airlines lost all of our luggage, instruments included. Only Jessica’s pipes were carried as hand luggage. We are guests of Steve Heath, our agent, and we rest a little in his garden.

Are we really leaving? The cab will be here in three hours, and here I am closing suitcases and wondering what is it I forgot this time…. but the show is real good (we have added live drums, and it rocks!), and I can’t wait to play it!
