Tom's Tour Blog

Welcome everyone to "Tom's blog"!

Yes, we are finally back on tour! We are travelling from city to city on our bus,
meeting so many of our awesome fans and have had some wicked shows so far.
Since it's our first real tour in the States and Canada there has seriously been a lot in store for us.
So far we visited New York, New Jersey, Montreal and Cleveland. Let me tell you,
each of the shows we played so far has been really special in it's own way.
And we are sooo excited to be nominated at the MTV VMAs for "Best Pop Video"
and "Best New Artist" thanks to all our fans!

The kick off for our concert run in New Jersey went surprisingly well, which worries me a little.
 Usually during the first show something goes wrong but this time everything was so smooth!
Well, obviously Georg missed some notes but that happens all the time (lol!).

On our way to Montreal it looked like our smooth run would come to an end...
we had to wait at the Canadian border for ages since there was a Greyhound bus ahead
of us and the officers searched every little bit of it - they even checked all the clothes the
people brought with them in their suitcases. Luckily when it was our turn,
the officers took it easy - they let us pass without taking our bus apart.
Security checks and border controls are definitely not my thing...
I just don't have the very best experience with them!

In Montreal (to be precise, in Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu) we performed at an awesome festival
with about twenty thousand people. The weather was great and throughout the whole day all
kinds of different hot-air balloons rose to the sky. The coolest one of them looked like the head
of Darth Vader and I would have loved to be on board that one! But we stayed on the ground and
performed a show, which was great - all the fans sang along to each of the songs with us...just amazing

After the show we had a quick stopover at the hotel where we took a shower (yes, Georg did too)
and then it was time to get on the tour bus to travel overnight to Cleveland. On the bus we played video games.
 We played a guitar playing challenge and obviously I beat all the other guys - what a surprise!

After that I went to sleep and woke up the next day in Cleveland where it was really sunny...
at least in the morning. Pretty much the rest of the day it rained so we spent most
of the day (it was an off day) watching DVDs. Gustav also had a little excursion to Lake Erie
and when he came back he was soaking wet - not because he jumped in the lake but
because it started to rain so hard!  Let me tell you guys, it's pretty exciting to be on tour in North America
- so many new things to explore. It's great to be here and I'm looking forward to seeing YOU at one
of the concerts soon.

Thanks for all your support at all the concerts so far and also at the MTV VMAs where you all
made it possible for us to be nominated TWICE....that's just unbelievable.
Please keep on voting for us as "Best New Artist"
Take care!
Tom

Georg - Bill skulle skriva något på skrivmaskinen, det spelade ingen
roll vad han skrev men ändå så sa han - "Oj, jag skrev visst fel här"
Tom - Och så ville han göra om allt igen ;-)

Jag var tvungen ^
