The Actual “Tour” Starts…

February 26th, 2010

The “Tour” has actually begun.  First show: Lund, Sweden.

There are about 18 shows in all and this is where it all begins.  We had to make an hour’s drive to Lund from Copenhagen, Denmark.  I like having the opportunity to ride around in new places because it always helps me to get more acquainted with the land and helps maps make more sense to me.  I never knew much about Europe but it appears that all of the countries in the EU are “islands” connected by bridges and tunnels.

Visiting Distant Lands…

February 24th, 2010

Hey guys! The tour has started! So far… I’m a bit tired!! We flew from Atlanta to London, about 8 hours, and from London to Copenhagen which was about an hour and a half. Believe it or not I slept about 90% of the time I was airborne ( Yeah, I have this uncanny ability to wake up right when the lady is about to bring food or drinks and that accounts for the other 10%… trust me, this is one of the greatest gifts I possess). The thing that has me tired is the time difference. There is a 6 hour difference between Copenhagen and Atlanta, so we were arriving when my body thought that it was actually about 5:00am. The key to adjusting to time change is staying up and sleeping with local time…. but yeah that was struggle that I lost. Hence, the first post a day later…lol. Needless to say I’ll be playing catch up.

This is my first time getting anywhere near London so I was uber excited to see this sign.  We were only passing through, but I’ll be back next week for three shows.  We had a two hour lay-over and I decided to just kinda walk around the airport….

Hey guys!  For those of you that don’t know I’ve recently joined Angie Stone’s band and I have been doing shows with her all over the US.  It’s been a great experience and as of Monday 02/22/10, it’ll become an experience that we’ll take over seas to Europe! We’ll be visiting Sweden, London, Norway, France, and Poland over a three week period.

I’m very excited about this opportunity and another chance to see parts of the world that I’ve only seen in books or heard about in the movies!  As usual, I’ll try to blog as much as possible and post as many pictures as I can.  This will be a great adventure!  Stay tuned!
