Ensiferum Bassist Posts Tour Update

ENSIFERUM bassist Sami Hinkka has checked in with this latest road report from the band's current spot on the Paganfest tour across Europe:

April 19, 2008 - Germany, München, Backstage

"Pfff...another gig with fever, this really starts to piss me off!! During the first song I thought I'm gonna die. Well, I survived.

Another sold out gig and another great audience (I notice that I start to repeat myself...). I try to kick others to write here too because I haven't done anything worth mention today (Finnish comedy series, some Monty Pythons and lot of sleep).

There is no döner place near here but we got some late night snack from Burger King!!! Oh yes, you might not know but there isn't any Burger Kings in Finland, so that's also something we HAVE to do every time when it's possible!

I'm off to shower (hopefully warm one this time...) and back to sleep. Rock 'n Roll glamour, eh?"

April 20, 2008 - Austria, Graz, Orpheum

"Oh Yeah! No more fever!

Very nice venue, good lights, good food, perfect!

Even though it was Sunday people were really in to music! One of the best gigs ever!!! Thank you one more time!! Markus had a surprise act (even for us!) while he dropped his kilt and posed with his ...well, let's say, not so beautiful underwear.

Now we are in a bit of hurry because we have to drive almost 900km to the next venue. So, see ya tomorrow!"
