Oulu

Pretty close to the Arctic circle here and it's still tee-shirt weather. A coke and a reindeer sandwich were fuel for today's load-in at a huge out-of-town venue that was once a sausage factory. Unlike the converted church in Gothenburg I'm not so sure that in this case it's a better use for a building, sausages being, in my opinion, one of mankind's greatest achievements. Another of those achievements is the automatic washing machine, an example of which I found tucked away in a small room in a far corner of the building, currently cleaning more than a week's worth of manky tour-togs. Bliss.

You should really pimp this up with some photojournalism for us to follow. That would make it even more interesting. Some cell phone snaps wont take much time :(

Thanks for visiting so far north. I have listened Anathema since late 90's but never seen live until yesterday. Thank you very much!

It would be nice to see Anathema in the future in Liverpool and also visit Anfield during the same trip. That would be dream come true..

So any plans playing in Liverpool?
