So, we had bunch of fun in Osijek, Croatia on April 11th! You know this gig was planned to be one supporting CONCRETE SOX along with Nonsense from Pozega, Croatia, unfortunately, both bands (Concrete Sox and Nonsense) didn't show up, so we played our way through the night along with awesome bands Raptor, Birth Machine and Subside, all three from Osijek.
We arrived to Osijek by train, Alex and I, accompanied with SexTiger Selver and HellTiger Osman, bass player and vocalist of Bosnian metalpunk forces HELLTIGERS. Traveling by train is fun if you have nice companions you can chat with, and if you get bored, read a book, take a nap or listen to some music. Also, it's great because it's only type of transportation in Bosnia which grants you your rights to smoke cigs inside the compartments and that's fucking awesome for all of us nervous fucks. Unfortunately, once you enter Croatia, you can forget about it - you're not allowed to smoke inside train and in most cafes, pubs and concert halls smoking is forbidden. Good for your health, bad for your nerves.
In Osijek we were warmly welcomed by old friend Kruno and our guitar player Atlija, we ate, we drank, we had lots of fun. I unfortunately was in the middle of medical treatment, I used some antibiotics, so I didn't drink which caused me a severe fucking headache, but it's all in a day job, what to say.
Nonetheless, great fucking show with bad fucking tech problems with guitar, but the crowd supported our asses through ripping 19 songs. We even played ''Promazin'' live for the first time and although we didn't have any rehearsals since November when we toured with Faak Am See, it was fucking great.
Go play Osijek, those guys are fucking fanatics and you'll have a great rock'n'rollin' time, believe my ass when I say that.
Cheers to Kruno for organizing the show, Jaca, Ivana, Vjeko, Vedran, Frano from Raptor and three bands that supported us as we supported them!

P.S. As you can probably notice, I started uploading old diaries from tour in 2009, it's gonna be up when the time comes.
