When the forum closed april 2012, I was in a bit of panic, cause scattered in the different threads, created over 8 years, were all my tour diary entries. Whenever there was a thread with a concert I was going to, I would post my tour diary in that thread, often over several posts, after lack of sleep and so on. And I got very good response afterwards. So, last december, I decided to track all of my tour diary entries down. I saved them as drafts for a blog, and now I'm ready to publish. I won't do all of the entries at once, I'm trying to edit them (just grammar and such, I don't want the content to change, even if a 28 year old me sees things a little bit different than a 18-year-old me). I posted the first entry today, it's from THAT very first concert in 2004. followingeuropetheband.blogspot.no/ |

Yes it's a great idea!It's been almost a decade since the band got back on stage together ,so I guess it'll be great to re-live this journey especially through the eyes of a fan!

second gig is out and by coincidence, that's 9 years ago tomorrow  this time it's less about the journey, more about the music, the band and the crowd |

Here is the next concert, from 2006. I met up with my heroes backstage! And had pictures with them! So, this is a review with pictures  Enjoy! Apparently I haven't written much about the feeling of the actual music here either... I guess I will do so in the later reviews But for me, this show was so centered around meeting my heroes. followingeuropetheband.blogspot.no/2012/12/europegig-no4-november-14th-2006.html |
