Rock in Rio Gig!!!!!!!!
Current mood: cheerful
Hey everybody how you all doing out there!!!!! The band has just come back from a great gig in Portugal where we played at the rock in rio festival. It was fantastic, the weather was great and the the location was also good for the gig.
We arrived on thursday afternoon and had a couple of hours to chill out and then off to a soundcheck and get all of our gear prepared for the next day. But needless to say our engineers had a nightmare with the mixing desk, and basically had to start all over again setting it all back up from scratch more or less (poor them i was thinking). Anyway our two hour souncheck got dwindlied down to about 30 minutes or so but us porfessionals got through it, so all went well for the souncheck in the end. Afterwards it was back to the hotel where we had time to chill and take the evening off and hang out have some nice dinner and meet friends etc etc. then off to bed for the gig the next day.
Friday morning i am up early and go to the gym and have a good old workout so i can wake up and get myself into the mood. We all have the majority of the day chilling till about 6.30pm and head to the venue get a bite to eat and then before you know it it's time to hit the stage and entertain the 80,000 people who are there. We had a great show the crowd seemed to appreciate it and get into it also!!!!!
I would like to thank all the people that came to watch us at the gig and who listened to us on the different channels all around europe, I would also like to thank the fans who have sent us their messages of thanks and saying what a lovely time thay had also. I know everybody in the band and myself really really appreciate your kindness!!!!!!
We have few days off now and we are off to germany this week for two gigs rock im ring and rock am park, two massive shows held in germany every year and we have been honoured by playing there once agian. There will be lots of good bands on so i will do my best to see as much as i can. Those of you who are going hope you have a great day and look forward to playing or all you people once again. Take care until next time.
much love to you all!!!!!
Derrick
