vienna, bern, the rain, the river

ah, a rainy day in austria.  we are getting ready for our final show of the tour, so swiftly it arrives.  but i am also ready to go home and see the kid and the cat and the pals.  the poor girl running this call shop is crying into the phone in a language i don´t understand.

we had such a lovely time in bern!  nice people, nice piano, beautiful river, a meret oppenheim sculpture, and the swiss soccer team was staying at our hotel!  patsy got to drink beers with them in their underwear.  if only i had been awake to take photos.  our fortunes would be made.

and i have decided to call bats “leathermice”.  a mistranslation from the german, but so pleasing.

this afternoon we are going to shoot a little video for ace of the nazarene.  these viennese girls make lo-fi live sound videos on location in the city.  when i get their myspace again i will link to it.  it is quite wet, so we may be huddled in a doorway or the van, but i look forward to another youtube production.

okeydokey, time for tee und kuchen.  tschuss, ciao, a bientot.  xv
