So
the tour has begun and CRUMBS with Dj in tow are in Europe on this
fall tour of 2011. Is Europe that much different in the fall than it
is in the spring? Well, for one it starts off really sunny and warm
and then slowly gets all rainy and cold. I guess just like fall in
North America. We are more the same than I realized.
Our
tour began in Oslo, lovely Oslo. The first time we ever went to Oslo
it was cold, rainy and crappy. Every time we have been back since,
Oslo has improved. This year when we arrived they were just starting
the warmest late September ever. Weather is huge when you're on tour.
Oslo
also has just opened their very own improv theatre called Der Anere
Teater (which translates into “The Other Theatre”). This theate
is.... BEAUTIFUL! When we stepped into the space it immediately felt
comfy, familiar and warm. Its the same as when you eat a meal and you
can taste the love. You can feel the love put into building this
theatre.
We
played two shows, one was a CRUMBS classic and the other was a mixed
show with our friends in Oslo. The shows involved “plumber” (a
classic suggestion, thanks Oslo) and “pizza place” (another
classic suggestion). We played with a rich girl who bought everything
she needed, the story behind why you never wave anything white at
Northern Lights, Alberto's Pizza Shop and how it is the most romantic
place for a date.
We
had great shows and great times in Oslo. We wondered the streets, we
found out where the good coffee was and we were fed the most amazing
food at the theatre (sandwiches with three layers drizzled with olive
oil... mmmm). But like anywhere and everywhere on our tour, it came
time to move on. We went to the airport (the correct airport... not
like that one time...) and waved goodbye to Norway and hello to
Zurich.
