When I woke up we were driving already in London area and finding our way to Camden Underworld. It took still about one hour to get there to just see that we could not par anywhere. After on hour we were back and find a place for the bus finally. We loaded in our gears immediately as people were pretty anxious to get to see all the shops and sights in Camden. Niilo was starting to feel bit sick and we only visited comic book shop nearby. I finally found the complete series of From Hell and returned happy to the venue. Luckily we had working Internet connection and we spent time before the doors by reading and writing emails and checking some news. We were also lucky to get few boxes of lost merchandise to the venue so that we had actually something to sell for the fans. Time before our show went past pretty quickly and when we hit the stage we instantly knew that this gig would be awesome. And yes, it really was what we anticipated. The crowd was just really great and we really gave our all again. After the show I just went to the shower just to notice that there was no warm water left. Well, you only have to use a bit your imagination and vision that it is Finnish summer and you are just about to go to swim; pretty much the same thing. After the show we went to mingle and see some of the great audience. We also met people from the Candlelight who kindly provided us some nice shot of fine liquor. This meant only one thing: Das Metal Party! And one hell of a party it was and continued far to the next morning. We crossed the sea with ferry and naturally refilled our booze supplies along the way. We also had to search for Mikko’s passport for 1 hour before getting through the customs. In the end everything went fine and we found the missing object under the mattress of Mikko’s bunk. I think Toni from OG and me were the last ones up and we witnessed one of the most beautiful sunrises on this trip. This of course led to some deep shit conversation about the wonders of the nature and other related stuff. Nevertheless, we were both quite amazed and went finally sleep very happy.
