           Vilnius, Lithuania

Finally, a little time in a city to wander, and wonder.

It's my first trip here










At the venue... piano being tuned before the show...



Plenty of technical issues to deal with, as usual...







and, over at my bass rig, hey, where's all my pedals?...




I should elaborate on the situation - guitarists and bassists will relate to this.

There's been a gremlin somewhere in my bass setup, since the tour began. Each night a brief high pitched noise comes from rig, and surprisingly we haven't been able to locate what's causing it.

I say it's surprising because our technicians are very good, and they're all puzzling over it.

Previous pages have pictures of rig, which usually has many pedals, and now with a 'panic' pedal added at the end, to mute the noise when it happens.
Today we have eliminated almost all the pedals, as you can see, to find out if it still happnens.

(Hint, from later at night: it did still happen, but the one pedal was off!)

Enough about that -- I'm sure it'll come up again.







Before the show...




The 'is that Peter sweeping the stage?' part of the day has arrived...





















Jennie, by the way, has a new solo album coming out, and for the cover she used one of my tour photos of her (with some cool editing!)



















Good to finally visit, and play in Lithuania.

Tomorrow, on to Riga, Latvia - another Baltic nation, but one that I visited just six weeks ago.
