Thursday 9th Driving south it's a big relief to see the sun again - got time for a quick visit to the family cottage on the way down there and everything is looking really crisp and clear in the sharp light of fall:

As a sharp opposite Juliana's setup for this tour is about as lo-tech as it gets - bringing only a Fender amp and a tuner pedal. For the spring tour she did use more gear including the sampler pedal that enabled her to play solo's over her own backing something that definitely added a dimension to the solo show. Initially when I discovered the new lo-tech approach I was a bit disappointed that it meant we'd probably have to miss out on a few great songs on that account but on the other hand Juliana is all about the concept of a talented musician performing great songs - the tech stuff doesn't really play that big a part. Even though the big stage and the tables is a big change compared to yesterday Juliana seems to adapt without any problems whatsoever and she delivers another strong performance. Small talk subjects of this evening includes jogging and ambidextrousness! One of the highlights is A Doe And Two Fawns - I'd heard her mess it up quite a bit on the Stockholm recording but tonight she nailed it! |

While I'm not a big fan of bridges being built everywhere I must admit that tonight I find it rather convenient to have a solid connection between Sweden and Denmark. Just a quick 30 minute ride over the bridge to Copenhagen and I am able to find my own bed again. Mood of the day: Elegant - class act |
