Copenhagen, Saturday

Early in the morning we crossed the bridge between Sweden and Denmark and went to Copenhagen. After spending some sun-soaked hours busking and on the main shopping street Strøget, we made our way to Café Blasen.

Blasen is a bar owned and run by Icelanders, and is frequented by Icelanders living in Copenhagen. Sure enough, when the gig started the house was packed with Icelanders, and we found ourselves talking to the audience in our mother tongue.

We did a purely acoustic gig, which was a challenge as the boozers are often loud on Saturday nights. But much to our delight we received the audience’s undivided attention, and were met with an incredible response.

Since it was our last gig of the tour we played a longer set than usual, and did several encores.

Needless to say, the night ended with one hell of a party.
