What's Brewin.........at Royal Albert Hall
Okay, obviously, that's not Belgium, but it's just across the Channel, so close enough, right? :)
Hello Everyone! Wow! Do I miss blogging! I miss chatting with you and reading your comments! I really have to get back on track here, don't I? I haven't even posted my wrap up Belgium blog. I really need to get cracking on that!! It's funny, once you get back to work and real life......there just doesn't seem to be time. So many other things to do. But I miss it, and I'll try to do better. Maybe even a once a week post or something. After we get the Wrap Up Belgium Blog posted. But before we do that.......
Would anyone like to see some gorgeous pictures from Royal Albert Hall? My dear friend B was fortunate enough to go to both shows and she's shared some of her pictures with us! Isn't that awesome! She said Show One was fabulous, but Show Two.........THE BEST! Although it could have everything to do with the fact that a certain Swiss squeezed her really tight. :P Nah. It's the music, right B? Always the music! :) I'm hoping she can be pursuaded to share with us some of the special behind the scenes stuff regarding what she saw. What do you say, Miss B?
She went to the trouble of typing out the transcript of the Q&A that night. I won't post it all here because it's 11 pages and most of you Divo fans have probably seen the video on You Tube, but I'm glad she did it! There are some nights that you don't want to forget, and it's good to have a record of every single detail. Then it all comes rushing back to you when it read it ten years later. The sights, the sounds.....the feel of Urs arm around your waist! :P Anyhow, there is a part I wanted to post here, because it ties in so well to something we talked about at the very beginning of this blog. It's almost like we've come full circle........this goes back to the very start when I was so afraid to go. (What was I afraid of anyhow? It was AWESOME!!) But I couldn't stop laughing when I read it. Oh David. LOL
Lady: "I'm Dutch. You've been to the Netherlandsa couple of times. I was wondering if there is something you think is typical Dutch?"
Carlos: "Frikadellen."
Urs: "What do you mean? About the audience for example?"
Lady: "Well you lived there so..."
Urs: "Well yeah, I lived in Amsterdamfor eight years so I know a lot of things that are typical Dutch. I love Holland, I love the people. Funniest thing I always thought... David goes to Amsterdam and says everyone is so stressed there! And I always think everyone is so relaxed there. So that is the funniest thing I know about Holland."
Seb: "Coffee shops?"
David laughs. "No, my first experience when I went to Holland the first time. Just checking into the hotel. And it really comes out of a sense of wanting to provide a high level of service........
OH! It was Seb! The Frenchie! Anyhow, did you catch that? THE COFFEE SHOPS! In the Netherlands. Remember we had a chat about that? What you could, um, procure at coffee shops in the Netherlands! Now how excactly does Seb know about that? hehehe Well, I guess everyone knew but me, but still........Is there something we should know Msr. Izambard? :P Anyhow, I just thought it was pretty funny that the guys were talking about it. Dutch Coffee Shops. Infamous, apparently.
Does anyone know what Frickadellen is? Please don't tell me its eel.........
Okay, enough blabbing from me on this topic. A big giant thank you to Birgit for sharing these gorgeous photos. And I really do hope you'll give us some inside stories.....we are all waiting anxiously. :) Enjoy, everyone! And thank you Birgit!
