Copenhagen revisited

Beauty capturing beauty

We are currently in Italy, Northern Italy (Lake Como, Varenna) to be more specific. Today’s photo comes from my daughter‘s visit a few weeks back in Copenhagen. I miss the place already. Will my Denmark adventures happen again next year? I hope so.

In the Woods…

Dark Tranquillity @ 2018 Roskilde Festival

Dark Tranquillity @ 2018 Roskilde Festival

@dtofficial #rf18 @orangefeeling #rf

This night, at 2018 Roskilde Festival, was one of the best of my life. I love Dark Tranquillity (who I have now seen in three different countries!). They were fabulous, as was Clutch before them and Nine Inch Nails after them.

I met a guy during their set who said something about knowing the band, yada, yada, yada. Anyway, during NIN the same guy appeared with Mikael Stanne of Dark Tranquillity to introduce him to me. I probably said a bunch of stupid stuff at this point (it being long after midnight). After every song I turned around to see Mikael still standing there with a smile on his face during the NIN set. I may have hugged him a dozen times and told him that I loved him. Nobody really knows what happened at this point. It was a lovely evening.

Metal Magic XI – Day III

"Not Crazy Enough"

@MetalMagicDK #goblin #FIN #deathhammer #maidenaalborg

I was curious to see Deathhammer, as Sergeant Salsten, pictured above, seemed more than a bit crazy at the performances of others. When he hit the stage I thought he looked like Woody Harrelson had fallen asleep in the sun for about a month or two, and then someone had woken him up by giving him too much speed. During the first song I thought he was going to fall into the audience at times (like he had during the Master’s Hammer show the night before). He didn’t, but his wild and aggressive behavior was over the top. After the first song finished someone yelled out in English “Not Crazy Enough!”. I couldn’t stop laughing.

FIN metal magic

An amazing amount, and quality, of sound came from these two members of FIN from Chicago.

Maiden Aalborg

Rock Goddess cancelled at the last minute which was fine by me. I much preferred the fill in of Maiden Aalborg who put on an outstanding show.

Michelin star restaurant across the street

Kokkeriet

@Kokkeriet

My neighbor this year is Kokkeriet, a relatively inexpensive restaurant by Michelin standards that I have yet to sample. I have been to Vesterbro Vinstue twice this year, and those bills combined were less than half the cost of one visit to Kokkeriet so that’s the main reason.

Happy birthday Scott Kelly
