the return to NYC + news x 3

the seasick sailors has hit the town with our friends Malissa and Erica who we are staying at..the queens of queens.

im still at the apartment with a vicious fever, damn airplanes...trying to gain strength to do a show tonight, I'll make it though, it always works out..we have a lot of shows ahead of us this week so I need to get better real soon..

we arrived in Boston a couple of days ago and Christian Cuff picked us up in our old friend, the blue toyota previa "Sealess". Thanks to a fu$%ed up booking agent called Shred we were not able to play our show in Boston since the venue "are not open mondays".....thanks man..

Cuff had a plan b though, we all drove up to Rocking Horse Studios in Pittsfield, New Hampshire to record for 2 days with our new friends Brian and Michelle. The studio was awesome and so was the sound. Cuff did a recording of one of his tunes together with gatss backing him up. patrik on drums, jon on bass, kristian on keys and me on electric guitar..it really worked out great.
we also recorded a bit on one of mine, recording drums, bass and mellotrone on a track called Tigers and Kittens that will probably end up on the new album..

1. The Post Journal in Jamestown, NY wrote an article about us coming to the Scandinavian Folk Festival this weekend:
