Dear Heartlanders,

returned from this monster trip late on monday night, been in a coma for another day and now slowly waking up again... It's been a great experience to see The Sisters so often, in so many different places, to see them develop with one and a half new guitarrists, and to be part of so many different crowds...

Can't post any reviews, neither of particular shows nor of the tour as a whole, cause a) it's too late, and b) I'm lacking the words, but what I can say is that they're alive and kicking. And the best about the whole tour was to witness what can happen between a lively crowd and the band - these situations were the ones when The Sisters were at their best, and an excellent example for the whole being more than the sum of its parts...:-)

For me the best about this trip though have been the people I've met, new people and people I already knew. And you're the reason why I write this. I want to say Hello to you all, it's been great to meet you (again), and I would like to thank everybody who helped with information, with lifts and/or with places to stay.
You can't fix stupid.

Wonderful!
It was great to meet a happy and relaxed Eva in Leeds (a day from heaven) and a very euphoric and moist (not a naughty way Ms. Strange) Eva after the Glasgow gig.
2006 is shaping up very nicely. :D

Dr. AV. h.c. (Dr. Avalanche honoris causa) or something.. I don`t have any really good Ideas, Herr Administrator, fellow Heartlanders, what do you think?

It was great to meet you in Leeds and Glasgow, Eva :notworthy: .

Von must know you and Andy by now... I bet you could get yourself a discount on gig tickets by being such a loyal customer! :lol: :wink:

How could I stop you, James? And I don't want to anyway, cause I'm crap at design, whereas you're a genius... :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: I'd say the same if you weren't spoiling me!

Only thing is: I can't change my avatar (yet), cause a) I love my cat too much, and b) that sleepy cat goes too well along with either "Utterly Bastard Groovy Amphetamine Filth" or "Intercontinental Assassin"... :lol: 8)

Edit: And I love the t-shirt, although I'd write Zurich instead of Geneva to make it even less obvious... 8)

:oops: He's probably relieved not so see the same old faces for a while... :lol: And the tickets are the least of my worries, it's the travelling - transport and accomodation - that ruins your finances for years... :wink:
