here's what the room looked like during their set.

there are three european countries where i tour and people smoke indoors: switzerland, spain and unfortunately germany. i'm awfully allergic to cigarettes and it makes playing a show "uber" painful. thankfully, this nice sign was up in the green rooms.

this is just... hilarious. all night liquor shop. called "no worries"... talk about drinking culture...

our stopover by train was kohln: where people were taking the carnival celebrations VERY seriously. below, the more tame version of costumes worn by everyone!
