Unfortunately I have to make this blog rather quick because we have to get started on our 4-hour drive to Dresden for a gig tonight. Paderborn is yet another beautiful city I’ve gotten to visit along this whirlwind of a tour. I played at the Markandu Kultur & Cocktailbar, and again I sat in the venue for a good couple of hours thinking that no one was going to show up, but by the time I went on stage the place was filling up and the crowd was amazing. It was definitely a party place, so after the encore (woo hoo!) a DJ started playing awesome music and it was definitely the best after-party I’ve had since I’ve been here! I met an amazing artist/photographer named Emell (who took some incredible photos of me playing which I will post!) and a very talented singer/songwriter, David Beisel, who is doing his CD release party at the Markandu on June 4th. Also, the club owner, Logus, was so much fun and took my mom and I to a Spanish restaurant for a delicious dinner before the gig. I will most definitely be back to Paderborn if they will have me!!
How is everything at home?? I hear it’s really hot! I miss home for sure, especially my dog Charlie, but I think I’m ok with spending a couple more weeks in Europe I loooove it here!
