June 26th-July 6th 2009


"'especially'…….
A journey to Germany, Bulgaria and ….. wait for it ….. Iceland!!"

Day 5

My voice is no better this morning…… tonight will be tough!

George had organised a press conference at Yasen´s piano bar as part of his campaign/crusade to promote his maxi-single featuring John and myself on their cover of July Morning as well as his petition plan to officialise Bulgaria´s  celebration of July 1st with the song. It will be really cool if it happens (it happens anyway) but it will be tough I think for George to convince them to make it a national holiday! But that´s his goal and he is determined (he would have no problem with this concept in Spain by the way).

So we talked to the media for a while and went back to the beach for lunch.

Tonight´s show is on the beach in Bourgas and it´s a great venue.

Sound check was okay but by the time we got to the actual show everything had changed.

I had just about enough voice but it didn´t matter anyway, the crowd was so loud and so close I felt like I was watching them!

I like it when audiences are close. It´s much easier to connect but, without security, it can be risky.

At one point a guy decided he wanted to give me his necklace and just climbed up on the stage behind me and proceeded to almost strangle me…. all this in the middle of a song!

After signing and posing for pictures we went for a night cap to the Poco Loco and I got to bed way too late!
