SOUND STORM European Tour - 22th Dec: FRANKFURT


Frankfurt, last date of this spectacular tour: sadness and melancholy filled the air. The last soundcheck, the last live, the last day together...the venue, Batschkapp in Frankfurt is huge and modern, the dressing room shared with Coma very spacious, super catering, with a great breakfast waiting for us.

SOUND STORM European Tour - 21th Dec: LEEUWARDEN


The journey from London to Leeuwarden in the Netherlands was quite long, but we made a very good sleep after the previous sleepless night: rain welcomed us together with a super venue, a great center of music and culture including a theatre.

SOUND STORM European Tour - 20th Dec: LONDON


Finally esterday I had the opportunity to be in London: we played at the O2 Academy Islington , the best live music club of the city. We left Paris at 1am and we went to bed at 4...damn, at 7 we had to wake up for a control at the British border before taking the Eurotunnel. We showed documents and we got back on the tourbus that was loaded on a train that transported us through the submarine tunnel in awhile...I was a bit afraid but it was easy!

SOUND STORM European Tour - 19th Dec: PARIS




Le Trabendo in Paris was unfortunately far from the city center and we had not a chance to visit something:  club is located in the Parc de la Villette, one of the largest parks in the city designed by Schumi (memories from university :D) with the most famous live clubs of the city like the Zenith.

SOUND STORM European Tour - 18th Dec: PRATTELN



Here we are at Club Trabendo in Paris. Yesterday we played one of the best clubs in Europe, Z7 in Pratteln, Switzerland. We arrived right on time at about noon and a large sweet and salty breakfast was waiting for us. Spectacular venue, a big stage and a huge hall, sounds and light really amazing, a cute backstage with showers and also washing machines.

On monday after the date in Lausanne we arrived in Italy for the day off:  tourbus stopped at Milan Malpensa Airport, and from there we said goodbye to Heavenshine who finished their part of the tour, while some of my Sound Storm went back to Turin to meet their girlfriends.

SOUND STORM European Tour - 15th Dec: LAUSANNE


Me, Christopher from Therion, Anton and Masha from Arkona

Yesterday it was the turn of Lausanne: we left from Eindhoven at 2 am and it was a really long trip, also because we stopped 2 hours at the border with Switzerland...we arrived very late at the venue Les Docks, it was 3 pm and because of the delay was not possible for us Sound Storm do the soundcheck.
