One more kickdrum for the road
Tuesday, November 18th, 2008Ah well, finally a date has been set for Uppsala. December 12, people. At Klubb Rotor. I’m planning for it to be a very special evening so if you have nothing else to do, welcome to join in the party!
Sadly or hopefully (depends on how you look at it), this may be the last gig I’ll do in a long time. I read today that Chris Martin (of all people!) said you shouldn’t be in a band after you’re 33. Although I have some years to go, I absolutely agree with him. Pop music should be fresh, it should be about doing stuff because it hasn’t been done before, because it’s outrageous and fun. My Mr.Suitcase moniker has been around for over 3 years and frankly, when I do new stuff now I’m just repeating myself.
Habit and fear of change are the worst reasons for ever doing anything!
No, no… It’s not the end. It’s not goodbye. That would be just too much drama. But December 12 marks the beginning of a break, an interlude. I don’t know what’s waiting on the other side of that. How it will sound, what I’ll do. But I’ve had so much fun and I am so pleased with the “Guidelines…” and “Frauds” albums and there’s no use chasing dreams when they’re already fulfilled.
But… When you think that it’s over, well it hasn’t even begun.
See you in Uppsala!
