Diary of a groupie

It was a great time, and i really miss every single one of you, you were amazing to me at the trip, no matter where i met you, Germany, France, Amsterdam or the UK. You all stole my heart, and i am not only a Monkey Junkie... but i am now also a Monkey Junkie Junkie! Just because I can. Stay awesome, keep blaming it on Jackson, and i am sure we meet again in the nearby future. And if there is no 100 Monkeys EU tour anytime next year, we will still find our way to a MASSIVE meet up. Monica, thank you so much for doing this whole trip with me, you were amazing, and i am happy I could do this with you. and I don't think i could have done this with ... read more

Today is London day, we ended up on the coach with 13 of us, but most of us must have been tired from the Birmingham show, because it was very quite, more quite than I expected it to be. I was still recovering from my cold, and minding my own business. The journals were shared and people wrote/read in it. With a little delay we arrived at Victoria coach station, and we had to take the underground from there to Kings Cross. We were not the only travellers going that direction, so we all hooked up. After a short stop for a Money box for Twilla, the travel continued. We arrived at our hotel a little before 2 and a quick shower was a must. Of course our hotel room did not have warm water at ... read more

After a short afternoon/night at home, and saying goodbye to Hannah, we headed to the airport at 7am. Check in, hanging around and killed some time at the airport till it was time to board. I insisted on sitting close to the wing, and yes, most monkey junkies know why. Of course, not shortly after take off, Monica and I started singing wings on fire. (I know, don't jinx it, but i just couldn't resist myself) We arrived at Manchester airport, a little over an hour later. The coach was easy found, but i booked it two hours later, just to make sure everything was okay. Luckily we could change our departure time to 11 instead of 1pm, and we boarded. It was good to finally be able to enjoy the view outside and not have ... read more

FINALLY the day that the band had to play in my home town. We arrived in Amsterdam a little before two, went to the hotel and checked in. This hotel is the most awesome hotel in all Amsterdam, it had stages for beds and drums as lights on the ceiling. I had to 'fake' perform on the bed and get my pictures taken, just for fun. after getting ready, it was time to 'explore' the town, basically just going to the starbucks, buy a coffee, smoke a lot and hang out around Leidseplein. When we got too cold we went to Dan's pub, across the venue and had a HUGE beer. We had to be at the venue at 4.30 because Hannah and me had a meet & greet (Thank you Nora and Cindy) Because i ... read more

Today was the day that I feared the most, Driving to Paris, but with no clear address of airport Charles de Gaulle with us. We planned to drive the car to the airport, outside Paris and take the train to the hotel. But things went different than planned, the GPS couldn't find any address, not even the airport itself, so we added the address of the hotel to it, and hoped for seeing signs of Charles de Gaulle airport when we're close, Apparently we entered from the wrong side, because there were no signs to find. So eventually i decided just to get rid of my fear of driving in crowded cities, and just drive straight through Paris. I heard everyone complaining about the scary roundabouts and the mad driving skills of the French men.. they ... read more
