The Cedar and That German Country: Day Two


Day 2 (March 25):

Here in Germany, it snowed today. Big, fat, wet snow. I got up and ran in it, in my shorts. Sounds nice. It wasn’t nice.

Then we played a mini set at the Bremen airport. Which was hilarious.

Then we went to Bremenhaven for the evening gig. Bremenhaven is great! We saw a WWII U-boat! They have a polar bear! (In the Bremenhaven zoo, not in the submarine. Although, we didn’t actually go in the submarine, so there might have been a polar bear in there too.) Our gig was in a movie theater, which was, actually, really great. We played up on the stagey bit in front of the screen and the blue-and-red lighting cast our stretched shadows longly onto it.

The gig was way easier than last night’s, and an audience member gave us a pen. Free German pen! What a place, Bremenhaven.
