So, Per Gessle’s Party Crasher Tour has begun. Last weekend I spent four unforgettable days in Copenhagen with Stina and Sarah. We spent our time shopping, drinking coffee, getting drunk at mexibar and reading books in a lovely forest with the deer. Oh and we saw Per Gessle on Monday night at Pumpehuset! In Per’s words…
“Copenhagen was fu##ing fantastic!!! The crowd was sent from heaven and the band was kicking ass like never before. A delight to be on stage! Everything was a gas, maybe - just maybe - Dangerous was bit slow…On the other hand Opp nox was a bit too fast…….. Yeah!!! Best….. so far….!!!”
The crowd was great, the band were fantastic. Martinique had the support slot and he was just great too! Definately looking forward to seeing him again in London!
Since I’m no good with words (but pretty good with a camera), here are some pix for your viewing pleasure
Three cheers for red wine!

Ok…. enough for now. The rest can (as always) be found on my Flickr page
In 4 days I’ll be checking in at BHX for my flight to Copenhagen!
And in 7 days time we’ll be bouncing around with excitement getting ready to see PeeGee!
It’s been months since Sarah, Stina and I all sat at our computers one cold evening in January and carefully planned our little tour. Booking flights at similar times, discovering cool Youth Hostels in the greatest part of Stockholm and not believing our luck when we managed to get tickets to all the shows we wanted to see. So, all the planning comes together on FRIDAY!!! yes, 4 days from now! and the hype for this tour is increadible its great to see Gessle and co. embracing modern technology hahah! Photo and Video updates appear almost every day, and OMG the rehearsals sound so awesome. I know that for fans who have seen Roxette before this is a bit of a let-down (Roxette songs without Marie = no no no!) but for me (having never seen Roxette) this is something I never thought would have happened! Even Martinique (Helena’s husband and the tour’s support act) is blogging every day! You should check him out at http://martiniquemusic.wordpress.com very cool indeed!
OK… so that was me being completely and utterly excited about this tour. Plans for this week… hmnnn, working (only 3 days, hoorah!), packing, and uhm…. thats about it really! I’ll probably update this again when I get back from Copenhagen… don’t think I’ll have much to say between now and then
Also just got sent this link from Crashi! cool video that he’s made about the tour
Next on the Agenda:
The Manics. (I am actually uber excited about this too right now, but I will attempt to contain said excitement until I get over the whole “OMG I’m seeing Gessle in a WEEK” thing. hah!)
Now to figure out how to make Twitter updates appear on here (yes, I caved and joined. I blame Mr Gessle though…)
*edit*
last but certainly not least - DELAYS are set to start recording their new album in May. * * *E X C I T E M E N T__O V E R L O A D* * *
yah yah i will post something “real” soon… for now, some lyrics
…….
En ensam kvinna söker en man
Svar till: Hjärtat talar sant
En pessimist i sitt livs form
Jag vädrar blod, det luktar sorg
En utomjordings kärlekstörst
En undran vem som svek vem först
Ät fett och socker tills du spyr
Eller blir en fyra-tonsmartyr
Sälj dig, sälj dig dyrt
Kom låna törnekronan min
Lid för konsten eller brinn
Jag slåss och håller kroppen varm
En dröm om mammas ömma famn
En utomjordings kärlekstörst
En undran vem som svek vem först
Och jag blir gärna en martyr
Vi behöver nog en ny
Sälj dig, sälj dig dyrt
Ett långfinger åt döden
Vi gick över lik
Och skylta’ med vår kärlek,
vårt rika inre liv
Men plåtarna till himmlen
var slut när vi kom dit
Och priset vi betalat
För att klassas som elit
Var att vi blev som dom andra
Vi blev som dom andra
Vi blev som dom andra
Och vi kommer inte längre
Vi är tillbaks på noll
Men ingen kommer sörja
Vi har spelat ut vår roll
Vi glömmer hela skiten
Det betyder ingenting
Vi skulle kommit längre
Men räckte inte till
Vi blev som dom andra
Vi blev som dom andra
Vi blev som dom andra
