Well, labels are a necessary evil in this business, so we signed yesterday to release Allergic under Soja Music Ltd. a fine new label located in Birmingham and in Berlin.
Let's hope it turns OK with the record and in a few months we become coke-snorting, limousine-riding, top model-dating, spoiled rock stars. Or so... :o)
We did have a few beers afterwards, so today I'm feeling a little dizzy, the heat you know. And tonight we're going to a party... Mmmm, it's going to be tough.
From a sunny Berlin city on a lovely Saturday afternoon,

Explorer
Today I brought out the Explorer. Man, what an amazing little guitar that is! It had been a while since last played it (Kurt Cobain Tribute in April) and it just feels SO right... not too heavy, right balance, it's no wonder you start riffing like a madman and come up with a few new ideas for songs on the spot.
Otherwise I've been experimenting with a capo for the acoustic guitar. I did some songs live with the acoustic a few weeks ago and it just gave the tone such a cool chimey sound. I probably suffer under the GAS (gear acquisition syndrome), but I seem I can't stop getting cool stuff lately on my hands... the Orange 2x12 box, the pedalboard. the capo... IÄm gonna get broke if I go on like that, man.
I'm catching up with the last two weeks of guitar retirement, as I had positively no time at all to play with my family here, but it was fun anyway. Family always is. Sometimes, of course.

New web presence www.frogcircus.de
Well, it seems we're back. Back from where? you might/might not ask. Back in the universal digital faceless world wide web. Yep, from now on, www.frogcircus.de is the door that opens to the froggy world.
Our old address is no longer valid, as it's the current subject of dispute with our old label, which didn't take the news of our "no" to further work with them very happily. Indeed, they were not quite amused, so we had to change the domain (long story, but it's lawyers stuff right now if you want to know).
Anyway, www.frogcircus.de is now the place to be. At the moment our webdesigner/photographer/video director/Belgian-beer-drinking friend Maxim Matthew is revamping the website, and it might take a few days to be online. But hey, we're using the occasion to add more useless stuff, more videos, more songs, more pictures, more of that you never asked for: it's gonna be there, buddy.
In the meantime... well, Jens has been finishing his presentation at school (finally!), Timo is getting his new home finished in time for the monsoon season, and me... well, I've been busy with business shit like old label, negotiating the new record deal, nerving the management, taking care of the visiting family... usual stuff really.
Did I already say that www.frogcircus.de is our new web address? You know I'm repeating it (www.frogcircus.de) so it goes up in Google :o) So here again... www.frogcircus.de
Thanks for the bread.
