I got to Stockholm on Friday afternoon, and our show was on Sunday night. I have been wanting to visit Sweden forever I’ve been really enamored with this place for a long time. It is amazing, I don’t know if it is my predisposition towards really likeing all things Swedish, but it really seems like people have a tighter sense of community here. Already everyone is so nice and curteous and smiling. Everyday interactions are conducted with cheer and politeness – it’s really incredible and welcoming. People are nice, beautiful and the city is awesome. I went into the Propellerhead offices on Friday and met everyone (they make a music program called Reason that I have been using forever to make music). They are a really great company – super progreassive and forward thinking and innovatice. The people couldn’t have been nicer too – it was really great talking to them and knowing that the people behind the company are so wonderfully nice and interesting. Friday night clubbing with some Swedish friends – awesome – listening to soft-house remixes of top 40 songs and discussing how rad Sweden’s politics and social structure are with some of its young people – a great night. Sean got in on Saturday morning – overnight flight from NYC, so we took it easy and slept in, until we went out and met up with the Katy Perry dudes who were staying on the other side of town. Our friend Will got in later and we all went out to dinner. Walked around the old city, which is really beautiful – its on this island in the middle of the city. It was cold and snowing but we walked around a bunch and no one was complaining! Eventually we crashed out and got some sleep. Our tour manager and driver, Courtney and Peter, got in during the night, and the next morning we headed to the venue (Nalen) early. The place is amazing – like this old-style ballroom with a grand hallway entrance. We went and walked around the old city again – Sean bought an amazing sweater. All sorts of nature shit all over it. We got back to the venue, and eventually got soundchecked and everything. It was good to see Katy and her crew again! The show was awesome – it’s a little strange for us to open, because we’ve never done a tour as a support act, but it went really well – better than I would ever have expected! People were jumping up and down and some even knew the words to DON’T TRUST ME. Crazy. Some kids came all the way from Finland – a two-day trek – just to see us play. Amazing. We had to leave soon after we played, because the drive to Copenhagen is really long, and the roads were horrendous. We drove to our hotel (A couple hours outside of Stockholm) and crashed out. Today early wake-up and we’re on the road again – somewhere in the southern part of Sweden right now, a few hours away from the famous bridge to Copenhagen.
Copenhagen
We drove all day, and got to the southern coast of Sweden around 2:30. From there, to get to Copenhagen, you take crazy suspension bridge that is really high in the air – It’s an incredible view of both coasts Apparently the engineers of the bridge had to MAKE and island in the middle of the water the bridge to land on. From that little island you dirve through a tunnet, and pop right up in Copenhagen on the other side. It was a really amazing stretch of road. Copenhagen rules – there are so many people on bikes, and it seems like most of the big roads have big, nice bike lanes for people. We got in and went to the venue. We though the show was at this place called Vega, but apparently it had been moved to this even bigger space a few miles away. It was a really retro kind of sporting facility with a big concert hall mini stadium thing in it – it was rad. People in Copenhagen, like in Stockholm are super nice and friendly, speak better English than we do, and are real good-looking. I think the Danish are the tallest people as a whole too. I like that. A lot. The show was really great – there were over 3,000 people in the hall. We slammed around in our usual fashion and had a ball of a time. WE got to watch Katy’s set this time and see our homies rock out – it was great seeing them in action again.
DRIVING
We got up early and mad our way to the van. Our hotel had a great view of Copenhagen, so we were reluctant to depart on a full day of driving. The trip for today – Drive from Copenhagen to This town in Holland, where we catch a ferry overnight to England. Driving and Driving and Driving – we finished up the Bourne trilogy in the van. Those movies are amazing. It’s our first tour in a van – we been on busses the past tours, and it is an interesting experience for sure – you see a lot more of the countryside, but it is way more tiring than being on a bus! After 12 hours of driving, we got to the ferry, had some dinner and attempted to cause some trouble but weren’t successful. The ferry was crazy – 10 floors tall and probably at least like 150-200 meters long.

Fuck you. This is what “music” is coming to? I don’t care if you find this stupid bullshit catchy. This is a total degradation of real music. This is the biggest bullshit I have ever heard and I hope the 12 year old girls that enjoy the half-ass attempt at music made by these two douche bags someday grow brains in their heads and learn to appreciate real music. If you find this “catchy” it is because you are not disgusted enough with what moronic lame assholes these two jerk-offs really are, hence you are probably a stupid dooshnozzle yourself with no appreciation for music and obviously no musical talent of your own. This is the kind of typical shit with MTV’s dick up it’s ass that rakes in millions from dumbfucks around the globe that are unconsciously contributing to the bastardization of the music industry by pumping money into stupid bastards that don’t spend more than ten minutes on a song (not to mention they can’t make music for shit even if they did). This may sound like an unnecessary rant from some pissed off asshole, but what you must notice is that this shit has been going on forever now. The leaders of the mainstream music scene are only out there for the money and the 12 year old’s. These people really suck a lot of hard elephant cock and should probably be given the death penalty for being such stupid arrogant fucks that have gotten away with peddling their mindfucking idiot shit around and making such a success from it. These guys even emit an aura of dumbfuck asshole when I look at this picture. Amen.
(I’ve posted this everywhere there is a 3OH!3. No, I don’t have too much time on my hands. I am a full time college student with a full time job and a full time social life so fuck you. Yes, I know this is “just my opinion” so you don’t need to remind me of that. What else would it be? And if you don’t want to take heed to what I’m saying, don’t. Just as nobody is forcing me to listen to this shit.)
i love ur song Starstruck! by far my favvv
I think I will try to recommend this post to my friends and family, cuz it’s really helpful.
