I have put the MiniDisc recording ion the computer - but I haven't cut it up in tracks yet - and it's to big to send in one file - even for Rapidshare. I see to it soon! Right now it's about 2 o'clock in the night - so to bed with me - have job tomorrow;)
See ya very soon
Hey by the way - very very cool. The sound enginger "Fede Frede" who produced our latest record, will come and do the sound for our show! Very cool - he lives about 30 miles from Århus;)
Good night or day or whatever - as long as it's good!
I've just put up one of the videos from CC up on our profile. I haven't come around to transfer the MiniDisc recording to my computer - but I will very soon!
It was SO great to perform with you. We are all very very happy about it. Morks is trying to get a day off from work, to make it possible to repeat our show by the end of the month.
We keep our fingers crossed:)
Man man, you are really nice to work with - this time we got it all together all of us!
