Finland, Russia, Russia and Switzerland… "96 tea bags and 2 pedal bins"!

Day 18

I am really homesick!

It's a long time since I felt like this although of course I always miss my "family".  Apart from the actual concerts which have all been sold out and great, the rest of the Russian tour has been really difficult and very frustrating and it has affected me in a lot of different ways.  I didn't sleep well last night and my butt is dragging all over the place. 

I couldn't really enjoy my little time in this palace either.  I was just in a funk all day and of course we had more problems with the main promoter who had decided to show up at this gig.  I won't bore you with the details but, again, I had to threaten the guy in order to get one particular lie/problem dealt with.

It's no fun going on stage having spent the last 90 minutes dealing with these things but the show was sold out and we did do a great show in the end.  I just felt so totally "disconnected"….

Dinner would have to be quick tonight as I had to leave very early to catch my flight from Moscow to Zurich.

It will be a relief to and for all of us to return to civilisation.
