Tinna Karlsdotter, vocalist for Sweden’s ALL ENDS, has checked in from the OOMPH support tour with the following update:

December 1st - Erlangen, Germany:

"Started our drive at 11.00 a.m and it was raining. After a little while the rain turned into snow, and we had to drive kind of slow just to be on the safe side. When we arrived to the venue it was perfect timing for some soup, sandwiches and coffee :) nice!

Had some trouble at soundcheck, some technical shit with one of the guitar amps, but they got it right after a long fight with the cables. After dinner we had two interviews, one for TV and one for radio. When the guys came to the TV-interview they had a great surprise. The guy who was doing the interview was -Toby! Now, you might not know who that is, so I'll tell you: Tobi is 'the gagged guy' me and Em drive around with in the back seat in the 'Apologize' video! Poor Tobi, we felt so sorry for him when we were dragging him around in the desert.

At first Erlangen felt a little tired and they got a piece of our mind ;) but after a couple of songs they woke up and enjoyed the show together with us. So, let's see how the crowd is when we come back in February! Looking forward to that!

It was Mina's birthday today. During the Oomph show and the song that Mina joins them on stage, the rest of us put some candles on this cake Alex got for her and went up on stage singing Happy Birthday to her. She got so happy, and was surprised everyone had kept quiet all day about the plans we had.

Tomorrow we'll drive to Munich and there we'll have a day off. It's gonna be a nice one.

So, 'till Wednesday probably! Take care, stay nice!"

Later
