My mum gave me some Absinth she made. <3
Then, after an epic concert of Kadavar, me and
Aneria flew to Glasgow and Edinburgh to meet Scotland for the first time...
Glasgow treated us quite well with :
Awesome vegan burgers/fries/cheesecake/music at The 13th note.
It's gloomy-but-quite-incredible necropolis by night...
And in the morning :
And even this !
(still in Glasgow)
Then, in Edinburgh, we had the best host you can imagine,
AnnaLee. (Miss you!!).
We went to the Scotland Museum to learn a lot of stuff, graveyards, Arthur's seat, and we all talked a lot... it was way too short!
Bearded bear and red bird talking about... geology maybe?
Aardwark (the best I've seen in a museum so far) in Scotland's Museum.
Lots of crows and ravens around us in Arthur's Seat.
(no "memento" anymore. MORI ONLY.)
Concerts !!!
A year ago I was afraid by crowds, msotly in little or big places, like venues, stadiums, and so I rarely went to gigs and shows because I couldn't appreciate it.
In January, for my birthday, I went to Kylesa/KenMode show in Paris, then to Mastodon/Red Fang. I keep on going the work with Jex Thot, Conan and the Hellfest (not the first time, but I usually like it because I can go to my tent and read when I feel bad about the crowd).
I'm explaining that because lots of my friends saw that change more clearly since september, I went to so many concerts! At least once a week.
Now I clearly get it : i like to go to stoner/sludge/psych/doom shows, in little venues, meet friends and wonderful people. Feels like home, now, and I miss it very quickly!
So who have I seen on stage lately? I can't make a list right now but let's say that :
Kadavar was epic, Pentagram (in Glasgow) was powerful, Ufomammut put me somewhere else, Color Haze & Siena Root fill me with love...
And I'm now waiting for another Red Fang show tomorrow!
Wow,your mum can make Absinth,thats pretty neat,wish she could send some down here
