georg's tour diary
this must have been the strangest day of our lives, or at least mine. i didn't get
to see anything of milan, which i regret very much. it all started to go terribly
wrong in the sound check; basically the sound was not good in the room. after the
sound check disaster i had to do some interviews, i don't really like to answer questions
like: define sigur rós. how the hell or why in hell should i define the band?
after these uncomfortable interviews we ate a proper italian dinner, what bliss. it
really made the day. italian food deserves all the praise in the world. it was time
for the gig and what a bummer. there was no contact anywhere, not between us or the
audience. so it was basically a terrible concert. jónsi even broke his spare
guitar in one of the songs. i know now after the concert that the audience like it
but we didn't. but like they say "you win some you loose some". we got this letter
from two girls that came all the way from france to see the show. this is the letter
and i don't know if i agree with it all but it's a good letter.
"we are really really sorry for tonight, we had never ever seen such a f*****g rotten audience. we would have loved it not to be so, but italian people are certainly the rudest people in the world. we are sorry for jónsi's guitar and we understand how angry you must be. please forget that awful night when people just didn't know how to behave, and most of all carry on".
i don't think the italians are the rudest people in the world but i must admit it was quiet shocking. after some consideration i think the concert wasn't as bad as we think, but it wasn't good. now it is over, time for the next gig.
