I kind of like the weary mornings after having a great night. It’s a special kind of mood when you know you surrendered your sleep for having a wonderful time. It’s the best kind of tiredness. Anyway, back on the train to Dornbirn I fell asleep ot once and woke up just in time to get out of the train. Peter picked us up and brought us to our hotel where we had time rest some more or do what we felt like doing. We had a quick and uncomplicated soundcheck, interrupted by a snack attack backstage as all of us were starving. And look who we found on the fridge and also on the wall backstage…that’s right – Art Orchestra you were here quite often, I have to say.
Before the gig I was told to iron my blouse and as Fabulous Fab is pretty much good at everything he does, he did a wonderful job ironing my shirt. Thank you so much, in return I shared my scarf when we shared a cigarette outside after the gig : ) Dear Spielboden, you were an amazing audience. It is so hard to leave the stage when you experience an audience like the one at the Spielboden. Thank you so much for your openness and for giving us so much back!!! As you know I do have a tendency to forget things and so I did in Dornbirn. Again I forgot to bring the hat to throw it into the audience. But the audience forgave me and when it’s time to come back I’ll bring one extra to make up for the last time.
We enjoyed our dinner after the concert, chatting in an easy-after-gig-mood. As we were all sweating like crazy on stage we finally were cooling down. Thank you Peter for letting us be part in this wonderful Club. Again I woke up feeling my favourite kind of tiredness. Mathias und I took the railjet back to Vienna, busy Fab left before us, cause he had things to do and the rest of the crew went back home with Martin Vetters and his bus. Mathias and I arrived just in time to catch the dance-performance „Can you hear them dancing?“at the Porgy. It was a long day in the good sense. I am back home and can’t wait to be on the road to come back again.
Yours Lia!
