So...yeah....weve made it back onto Canadian soil, and after a few days of doin nothing at all, I figured Id at least throw up a conclusion to all these rambling tour diaries....we def ended these 5 weeks with a bang! After our great show in the Czech Republic on Thursday, we went to Leipzig, Germany, which is often called the doom capital of Europe(they have a really well known yearly doom fest there), and played a great show with 2 great bands, EKRANOPLAN and Earthship(who have toured/ played with Red fang, Torche, and lotsa other rad bands. We hope to hook up with them for more shows in the spring). Earthship allowed me to use their smoke machine, which they blackened the room with before they played, so I was a happy man! On Saturday we played the Zero Unique Fest, in Hannover, with 6 great bands.... SERPENT EA†ER, Counterblast, Kasan, Spancer, Abest, and NIGHTSLUG....not a shitty band on the bill and we were stoked/ lucky to be a part of it! After a lotta vodka outta the bottle, and too much free beer to begin to explain, the night ended in a drunken dance off between a buncha metal dudes at the after party....I was sure to pull out my Carleton, and drop into the worm a few times! haha! Met some great people and made some friends that I really do hope to see again really soon! After makin our way back to our original point of departure, we spent a relaxing night at Jörgs mothers house, after unloading the gear for one last time, then we were up early for a 3 hour drive to the airport for our 12 hour travel day! Landing in Moncton was a pretty great feeling, and walking in my front door, to the excitement of my dogs, was something I was beginning to think would never happen, but here I am! Of course I have too many people to thank for this experience, but above all, I gotta give props to Kyle McDons for doing the unthinkable and booking this tour himself, as well as being the only driver on this long, often terrifying, excursion we just completed. You busted your balls for this mfriend, and I do believe it paid off! To all the rest of you that helped along the way, I hope you know who you are, and that we are deeply indebted to you! To any of our new friends/ fans.....please do us the favour of spreading the word of ZAUM by sharing links for our record or fb page....we have started the ball rolling, but with your help, this will continue to grow, and well be able to come visit you in Europe a few times a year! zaum.bandcamp/album/oracles
