one night on earth ... late in the bis-round ... beautiful song ... and so true: 'your face, it will not be back again' and 'now the wolves all howled' ... i howled along, and m, i drank some duvels for you ... and i will drink some more, i promise ...

my first guestlist-gig, it should be something to make me happy ... but that's not what i'm thinking of these moments ... still the story is worth telling ... they played in the velvet music store in the afternoon, an in-store free short gig, only the singer and drummer ... nice voice and songs ... afterwards i talk with someone of the band (turned out to be the guitarplayer ... and a lookalike from far ??) and tell him i want to go to the sold-out gig later that evening ... give me your name, i see what i can do he tells me ... so i do ... then in the evening i decide to go and give it a try, i didn't feel like staying home anyway ... i take one entrance, ask is there a guestlist, yeah, it's at the other one, ok, i go there, pass the bear in costume and go to a girl in a chair with a list ... if everything went well i should be on that i say, what's your name she asks and at that moment i see my name there... here, i point ... what a feeling ... and what a gig ... a small hall and a big band, a great combination ... great to enjoy, listen and think of nothing ... except maybe your face ...
