Let it begin.


Arrived in  Amsterdam yesterday. It's the first time i've ever had 4 days off before the start of a trip to relax and check stuff out. Remco booked us into the "backstage hotel". It's tailor made for rockas complete with snare drum lighting fixtures and beds that look like roadcases. Super corny but its only 2 blocks from all the fun stuff. Jeremy Chris and i went for a walk today in the big park here (Vogel?) and had the "pleasure" of seeing this... A truckload of english ner'do well hooligans drunk on a bar that they pedal around on the streets whilst singing "Tubthumper" by Chumbawumba, except they only know the one line from the song, "i get knocked down, but i get up again, but i'm never gonna mumble mumble...". And they just sing it over and over and over. Incredible and sad really.
