SUIDAKRA have checked in from their current North American tour alongside ALESTORM and TÝR with the following update:

"The show in Orlando was good, except the fact that we had to cut our set short as the backline had arrived that very day and we needed some time to set up everything properly. It was a funny evening as we met some fans that we know via mySpace for quite a time for the first time there.

We set sail to Tallahassee at 4:00am. The Engine Room was a cool club, maybe a bit too large for a Monday night in Tallahassee ;-) At 8:45 we were ready to start the show and entered the stage. Suddenly Cartel, our tour manager and sound guy, came on stage and asked if we wanted to play an hour longer than usual. That was a weird question given that usually we are told not to play longer than approved. Well, turns out that we were supposed to start our show at 9:45, and we just went up an hour early. Man, that was a good laugh! Everybody on stage was ready to go just waiting for the intro, but then getting to hear 'Come back in an hour dudes!' Jeeez, that was kind of embarrassing... Haha. But we're sure this will not happen again. And as we should have local supports for the next shows, it's not very likely.

We uploaded some pics, check em out and feel free to comment here.

Life on tour can be stressful sometimes, but there are always times of waiting and boredom as well. Feel free to give us a call or message us on our cell phones if you wanna talk some nonsense or need advice how to court the girl or boy next door. ;-) If we're not busy with some other stuff we'll be happy to talk to you.

If have some good advice about what we can do in Orleans today or tonight, let us know as well. We're having a day off here today before heading to Houston. See you there?"
