Frankfurt: I didn't get many photos - we're pretty busy finishing up the tour biz (had to get a Porcupine Tree t-shirt, among
other things!)
But it was a nice audience
The usual shot of Michael and Pat during Slow Glide
Michael grabbed some good shots as we were going on:
Crim alumni fists of fury!
Tomorrow - Cologne, and the last show for us on this tour.
Dec 2, Koln
I'm determined to take more photos today - ignoring the situation of my camera screen broken, so I can't adjust any settings.
I'm looking at it as the last day for this camera - I'll certainly replace it when home!
How do we find our way around here in Europe -- well, there's a GPS system, but map backups don't hurt!
The drive to Koln from Frankfurt was a bit harrowing. They have a strange system, or lack of it, with the lanes here. New yellow ones painted next to older white ones... no hint
which to take, and more imprtantly, some lanes are too narrow for a big car, let alone a van or truck... I'll see if a photo shows the situation...
Yes, you might point out that I should be driving carefully here, not taking photos of the road! That also occurred to my passengers.
Well, anyway we made it!
A large venue tonight...
We tried to get here early, to have time to say goodbye and thanks to all the crew and Porcupine Tree.
Boy, this is an intense fan... cheering at soundcheck...
No, wait... that's not a fan, it's Adrian, our incomparable merch guru!
Venue is filling in...
Time to go onstage.
Gavin Harrison (drummer in Porcupine Tree, and in King Crimson as well) introduced us tonight
And surprised me (I think Pat had planned it) by coming onstage to sit in on Red
(I only got the shot after the piece)
Tonight I finally had a chance to photograph some of the Porcupine Tree show (usually we've been packing and loading out during this segment.)
So, it's been a great tour, musically and personally fun for us in Stick Men. We're grateful to PT and their crew for having us along and doing great setup, sound, and lights
for us. We're hoping it'll happen again one day.
