Shinedown Roadtrip: Copenhagen

Kilometers traveld: 6.871

Shows: 9/10

Before heading to Copenhagen, we had to say goodbye to Dana which was really sad. I can't wait to see her again.

Then we headed north. Our hostel in Copenhagen was really strange and the people we shared our room with were even worse (one guy watched us sleep which was creepy as hell). But the hostel crew was quite nice and when we prepared the signs for the show the guy working there put Shinedown on for us.

The show in Copenhagen was beautiful. We had made signs for all three bands and they all liked it. The one for Press to Meco said "The first band is really good", related to a thing they always did after the shows: They put up a phone and in the language of the country they were in they wrote down "The first band was really good" or "We need money for food". 

For Starset, we kept it rather simple yet very emotional: "You make everything okay." These are lyrics from their song "My Demons" which they always played as the last song of their set. Their photographer Brian included us holding up that sign in one of his videos - thanks again Brian!

The one we made for Shinedown said: "Shinedown is Family". It came straight from the heart because that was what Stef and I experienced on this Roadtrip. The band and crew included us in their family, but we also found family in the amazing other fans we met along the way. 

At this show, Shinedown played the most beautiful acoustic version of "Amaryllis" I ever heard. 

After the show, we had a really long and good talk with Adam of Starset. He was jsut really kind and open and funny and it was great to talk to him. Thank you again, also for the drumstick.
