APR25(WED) City:Vienna, Venue:Tunnel

We were very pleased to play Vienna AND to have our day off here. Mozart, Strauss and … Melanie Dekker, Sam Cartwright and David MarionJ ... UBC professeur of rocket science Jaymie heard about the tour and this fellow Vancouverite had us exploring the menu of a HUGE beer garten which seated about 500 or more. He and is bud shared a large piece of pork by passing it back and forth down a long table about 6 times, until only the bones were left. We made our way home by walking through a year round Fair Ground with the biggest craziest rides including a Giant rocking bell! Vienna is rich, historical and musical and home of the BEST coffee. There’s a big buzz everywhere and we all had the desire to keep walking and walking. Around every corner there was yet another site to take your breath away. We stayed in a 4 bedroom flat that really made me feel like we are family though the elevator was perhaps the scariest solo ride I had been on in a while. Romy Schnieder, Arnold Schnarzenegger, Mozart, Empress Elizabeth you are wonderful examples of the strength, detail and personality of this city and country. We are in awe and oh so grateful for the energy of this city and it showed up in our performance as we were gitty, sassy and talkative. What did it look like on the webcam?  ("Tunnel Vision" sketch below by Katrien Kolenberg)
