Boy howdy ! What a weekend it was, short and sweet some say, long and intense if you play with the big ones. It started out with a great welcoming squad in Gothenburg at "7 Sins" with full catering and "moshpit" restrictions, clearly the seamen didnt study their dancesteps enough !
After a champagne? drenched night we headed back for 019, home..
At Virus it all fell in place, the "Triple N Touch" of GBG was now transformed into the "Peter Flack trio" in Örebro !
The night was a success.
