Some additions to the lexicon:
Phillip Janzen: marvellously talented drummer, based in Köln. Plays more and more songs as the tour progresses, and we're buying him lots of fun toys like triangles and shit to keep it "fresh".
Arcade Fire: So long, suckers! Good times were had. The band afforded me several nights of carnal relief and I met just TONNES of CELEBRITIES.
Bell Orchestre: Just an awesome band who I "feel" for. They are making music that I appreciate and I don't know if anybody understands them. Don't you understand them? I hope they don't go the way of the Sea Snakes.
Hamburg: A good first show. We were shaky and I got super nervous. Like, what if Phillip sucks? But he didn't suck. He was actually great. I played a pile of new songs that went okay.
Dresden: It was a long drive. The show happened in a flat with stucco walls that were falling apart. Folding chairs set up everywhere. The crowd was polite and confused. The hosts served us chicken soup and fish dumplings and I realized that this was the first "former communist" city I had ever visited. After the show, a very nice girl named Susanne invited me to go look at a castle and chided me when I said "I am tired, thank you, no."
Jan Lankisch: Was good enough to send co-worker to pick up my "friend" from the airport. Then entertained said "friend" for entire jetlagged day, plying him with bröt and mini-golf. Introduced us to the wonders of Tokio Hotel, Germany's timely answer to Silverchair, with a little more hair gel. All in all, an excellent German citizen.
Bröt: bread. Every German meal has a lot of it. After two days of eating nothing but bröt and Nutella, you start to realize that you've never been hungrier in your life.
Susanne: our magnificent tour manager. She jogs and smokes and works so hard. She gets in fights with misogynist sound men and cheap promoters. Wow! She's basically Aeon Flux.
Wisdom Teeth: Usually arrive between the age of 18-22 in men. When they choose to break the gums, just behind the 12-year molars, it is accompanied with intense pain, infection and swelling. Often, these teeth have to be removed. I have decided to, instead, buy a lot of aspirin and gripe a lot.
Piffo & Squash: Our two Nintendogs. Piffo is a Corgi, excellent at catching frisbees. Squash just loves to love, she's a rare Japanese breed called a Shiba Inu.
