Huntington beach

This morning was the roughest one on this whole tour. Some of us woke up to have some burritos and tacos for breakfast. Mika, Sami and Krisse went to the beach for some time when I decided to have some more sleep.

There was two locals today and Christina was helping again at the merch table, which gave us a lot of time to get well for the show. We also got some friends in the backstage with loads of beer-drinking-experience and that probably made us drink pretty heavily again. Our day ended outside the nightliners with some fans and friends and when we started to drive, our two mobile bars were full of people.

Nicke Andersson visited us? Nope, it's Matias after the show with Keijo's hat on.

Our guys just went so sleep so early, that I decided to continue the party at the party-bus with Finntroll and Barren Earth guys. Only problem was that there wasn't any truck stops in a few hours and I ended-up getting stuck into their sofa, being really afraid to fall asleep because when one dozes on sofa, they will usually wake-up with some marker on their face. So, my night continued until 8am, when everyone else went to sleep from the party and at that point I was able to take a short nap until 10am truck-stop, where I could go into my coffin for the rest of the day.
