So do you want a small report or something?
A friend and me went to Amsterdam early, we got lost (but did not end up in the red light district), had a drink somewhere and went to Paradiso. We first walked around to see if Germy was somewhere to be found. He wasn't, so I told a woman at the reception that I was there to see one of the band members.
She asked me what my name was and I wondered if Germanator knew my irl first name.
But I was the only one who was going to meet him, so I thought it wouldn't matter. I also hoped I remembered his first name right, Sam.
A few minutes later the woman got back with him. We talked about his tour, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, how long it had taken us to get there. How small and compact Holland is. How tired the whole band was and that they kept themselves going with espresso and beer.
The show was good, but I think the audience could have been a bit better at times. Like when the band told us that the following song was inspired by their last show in Paradiso (where we were).
Admittedly, some songs were better than others.
Oh, I LOVED how they kicked into Brown Boxes.
First some unrecognizable guitar, then the epic kazoos. Awesome. I woohood.
I also supported Germy by asking for more of his frog sounds.
After they left, we wanted an encore so we kept clapping and cheering. Nothing came.
Bought both CDs from Germanator (who really is the errand boy), said goodbye.
Because of train delays, it took me 4 hours to get home.
