Oslo, Tuesday


Oslo, Tuesday

We took turns driving to Oslo, and tried to make up for lost sleep in the car on the way. After a quick sound check at Cafe Mono, we walked around the city centre for a couple of hours with our instruments playing for the people we met.

Everything about Cafe Mono was utterly professional. We were treated to great food and a well equipped back-stage area. The sound technician Trond did wonders with our sound, and we had a great time on stage.

When the show was over the bartender from the bar persuaded us to do an encore, by offering us more of that free Norwegian beer.

After the gig, a rest was surely needed, and we were delighted when we saw what a friend of the band (Hildur living in Oslo) had prepared for us that evening: clean bed sheets, pillows and soft mattresses along with XO Cognac, to gain strength and prepare ourselves for the driving back to Gothenburg the morning after for our second visit there this trip.
