A weekend in the city.

Last weekend I went to see the German industrial band Rammstein burn some gasoline in Globen. It was mad! Flames and bombs from the beginning all the way to the end. If you haven't seen it you must. The following day we had i little band meeting and we listened through all of our demos that we have recorded and discussed them. A really nice way to spend a Sunday night. I also forwarded some of my ideas of having more pyro when we are on stage. We'll see what happens with that.

Sthlm fashion week

It's fashion week in Stockholm this week. This usually means lots of parties with free drinks and stiff crowds. But last night me and J attended a party hosted by POUR. We love their threads so we decided to hang out with them at their party. We got into some DJ:ing (and scratching!!) with our new friend Camilo, who's a dope rapper. We also tried out some new clothes. Hope they are not to mad at us for taking all the beer that was left with us. Here we are wearing POUR.

speaking about england.

While I was helping Johnny packing his stuff today (he is moving to another apartment) we started to talk about how much fun we had last time we were in London. We came to the conclusion that it's about time we go there again. We haven't booked the tickets jet but we are thinking of it. We were also saying that if we go, why not do show there just for fun. As I said, nothing is decided, but we are planning.
Take care

Växjö has been rocked

Last night we played epic rock'n'roll music at Slottsstallarna in Växjö, Småland. It was a great start of our new live year. Damn the people were mad. The show was sold out and there was a riot going on. The barrier infront of the stage broke and guards had to keep the crowd at bay. We had so much fun. We also world premiered a new song at the encore. It's called "Take me in your arms" and has no chorus but guitars. Elias shot a lot of video of the gig and we're gonna upload it here sometime soon. Thank you Växjö!

Offspring

Last rehearsal we ended up playing "The kids aren't alright" by The Offspring with Oskar on the drums. I don't know if that's a good or bad sign bearing the upcoming show in växjö in mind. I am a little afraid...

Concerning acting and music

I'm flying to Berlin in a couple of weeks to act in an independent film directed by a swede. This makes me think back on my first theatrical plays in school when I portrayed a leather jacket version of Elaka Måns in my schools play, Pelle Svanslös. I did the part with such devotion and enthusiasm that three people in the ensemble started crying at the rehearsals. I was about 14 and I was totally fierce. Haha. And I also think about when the four of us were shooting a movie last summer. That one premiers this fall in Sweden. So we'll soon be in a cinema near yourselves. But we are not moviestars but musicians. And we are making a lot of great music now. It sounds a lot darker. I think we have finally abandoned The Beatles.

I´d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

Tonight all our favourite guitar technician Anton is having a release party for his band, I´m gonna head down to town grab a couple of beers and see what they´re up to.

One new song has been recorded. Me and Anton recorded it in the home studio and we played it to our bookers who applauded us. It´s a hit!

I welcome the future

Today I bought myself a brand new vacuum cleaner. It looks like a spaceship and has LED-lights on the mouthpiece.

I could have been a great pianist

Oh how the days just go by without me even realizing they do. But they do in a pace faster than me. Every hour is a potential opportunity to write a song, a poem, call a friend who needs a call. But flat screen TV's suck our brains in a drains us of creativity to seize the moment. And maybe life is only a fight to stay on top of the moment and try to not get to entertained by all the mindless mumbojumbo media companys push down your throat. I would like you to turn the computer off now and write a letter to someone dear.

I was gifted, am gifted. Sometimes I look at my hands and realize that I could have been a great pianist or something. But what have my hands done? Scratched my balls, written checks, tied shoes, pushed toilet levers, etc. I have wasted my hands. And my mind.
