Waking up Sunday around noon, the first order of the day was a to procure a new string for one of the guitars, which was urgently needed in time for our 5am TV gig, but which was complicated by the fact that all shops were closed. Once again, our by now good friend Jenny came to the rescue and lent us one of the guitars from her home. Having taken the 'scenic route' across Stockholm courtesy of our gps-guidance system, we next walked over to Drottninggatan to play in the streets.
After consulting one of the local street artists, a folk singer from Hungary, we picked our spot near parliament and unpacked our instruments. Our passersby were mostly tourists, weekend shoppers, or locals just enjoying a Sunday walk around town. By sunset we had sold some CDs, made some new friends and raked in some hard-earned cash. All in day's work.
