A strange one this. We had little sleep the night before due to the unsympathetic hours of Hotels understanding the working hours of musicians (A problem I am currently facing in Japan as I type).
So with sleep in our eyes Luca, Andrea and myself set off for our next destination just an hour or so drive away.
We stop off in a very nice city of which the name escapes me where we walk fairly aimlessly for a couple of hours and then have a nice but rushed and bustled lunch.
Then we arrive at our venue in Bergamo.
The place had a community run vibe with art being a major factor. Throughout my time there all the music that was playing was Syd Barret Era Pink Floyd. I took this as a good sign that things could get Psychedelic.
I also took this as a chance to play a different style setlist. Dropping many of the mainstay songs and dipping into my back catalogue aswell as testing the water with new material.
It was a pleasure to open the set with `Designed To Stop`. A song rarely played since this performance in Japan late 2011.
What was also a true pleasure was to make the Live Debut of the song `This College Year` with Andrea on the Piano.
All in all a nice experimental set which was followed by a overwhelming Italian beer made by Monks.
11.3% alcohol was all I needed for a good nights sleep.
