What can we actually write? That Piše se Leto concert is one of the main reasons, beside an awesome crowd of fans, why we love coming back to Maribor? That these very same fans push the limits of possible at this exact same concert? That we are treated like kings by the organizer year after year? That it's getting better year after year? That this one differed from the past ones because we missed Smiljan's smile in the backstage and found a new one, that of his son, Luka? Sure, we could write all that, no doubt about it. But even if we would … in extensive detail, we would never come even close to the adrenaline that lifts us here in Maribor. And before we get tangled: Maribor, thank you! From the bottom of our hearts … into your enormous heart, that you open to us every time we visit! We had to write something, but a simple fact is that you left us speechless.

Let's first clear a few adrenaline fueled twists and turns in this thrilling story: it all began in rain, continued more or less in the same manner and ended pretty much like it, too. Surprisingly little time passed between the first load-in and load-out and no intellectual strain was required to find the culprit; our bus driver, who speeded through corners like his life depended on it. Or as Tomi put it: "It's all straight-forward to him." Before soundcheck two of our crew members got acquainted with Saloon's small pizza. The majority of the people present at the table got well-fed with this "small" but tasty specimen of culinary species. The damned thing measured over 55 cm in diameter and was not exactly the thinnest of its kind. After the soundcheck we ended up (believe it or not) back in the Saloon's restaurant where the dinner was being served. In the meanwhile a local band Can of Bees was warming up the first arrivals. They were followed by somewhat "unusual" dance performance. And then the lights went down, Tisa played our intro and then:

B Mashina
Bonsai
Bel Labod
Klinik
T.H.O.R.
Japan
Od Višine se Zvrti
Napalm 3
Baroko
Samo Edini
Pot v X
Rave
Napoj
Postavi se na Mojo Stran
Apokalipsa
Le Mavrica
Platina
Ring
Na Soncu
Vojna Idej

After the show we freshened ourselves up on the bus while our crew loaded our gear, this was followed by another break-neck-speed drive back home, which provided us with a few interesting anecdotes, but they might be more suitable for another occasion.

Dear korošice and korošci! We salute each and every one of you who stood there and/or jumped around in the rain for those two hours. This was the second time that you came out to see us in such a dreary weather. But this was also the second time that you clearly showed us that there is no stopping you. And this is why that the next we come back to your part of the woods again it won't be on 31st but on 13th!

Until then – thank you & see ya! You were incredible!

Our Studio 13 welcomed us in an early-afternoon sun and before it knew what hit it we emptied it and loaded our gear onto the bus. The mandatory (almost ritualistic) wait for certain someones to appear, who also again and again serve us with creative choice of apologies why it is totally impossible for them to be on time, resulted in an over-all good spirits as we hit the road and headed towards Zeleni Gaj. Up until this day we were fairly certain that zombies only existed in comic books, novels, movies and TV series, but just before we reached our destination we had to admit how horribly wrong we were. It was a solitary specimen who was lucky that Michonne wasn't around. We unloaded the gear, "refreshed" ourselves and did the sound check. The specifics of the venue caused quite some problems to our Tisa, but she overcame them like a hefe. On our way to dinner our main concern wasn't the food, but football. Do they have a TV set? Will we be able to watch the match? Even if the do have the TV set – do they have the right channels? Will we need to dig them? Well, the TV wasn't there, but the kind hosts at Lisjak went out of their way to indulge us. The whole family stepped up and made sure we were taken care of and in the meanwhile the produced the cables, moved some chairs around and - ta–daaa. They prepared as regular open-air cinema with the match being projected on the wall. The game was more or less in a stop-motion technique (the ads ran a smooth as they come, though). But that wasn't everything; an amazing wine and home cooking quite literally anchored most of us down. And the kindness of hosts was just never ending. While Bayern was literally killing Barcelona (who did some of the same killing themselves) the minutes rushed by and we had to head back to the venue. As soon as we hit the stage we knew we didn't come back for nothing after all this time. The energy of the fans literally electrified the stage and returned it with full force. Working on May 1st turned out to be an immense joy. And the promise stays; we will be back sooner than in 10 years! Thank you!

10 years will pass on September 13 since our concert at Plečnik Stadium in Bežigrad (Ljubljana), when we performed with Symphonic Orchestra RTV Slovenia and 70 dancers in front of a crowd of over 30.000.

To mark this anniversary we joined with Symphonic Orchestra RTV Slovenia again and are now preparing an acoustic concert in Gallus Hall of Cankarjev dom which will take place on June 17, 2013.

Tickets are available at the Cankarjev dom box-office and at at www.mojekarte.si.

SEE YA!

When we arrived Zagreb showered us with early April rain, so we headed straight for the club KSET, right after some snacks that we fixed ourselves on the bus. In the club the local crew was kind enough to helped us with the load-in and other technicalities.

On this day the atmosphere was a bit different than on the rest of the days. On the last day of the tour the whole crew is in a unique mental state; symbiosis of joy over the fact that we are heading home and longing after the fact that we could tour some more, at least for as long as we just did. At the same time the whole day smells of an unforgettable, energy-fueled evening into which we must give our everything. We did so for the last ten days with the greatest of pleasure. Together with diligent Duši and Darjan, who brought – beside their muscles and patience – a whole lot of good will to the table; with Eva, who earned her way back home with an extraordinary sales; with Tisa, who managed to overcome almost everything, from top-notch sound systems to the situations when she wished she could be a speaker herself; with Vido, who managed to light up the venues no matter how difficult the technicalities proved themselves to be (if nothing else he did it with his wits); with Andraž, who yet again proved himself to be an extraordinary coordinator and tour manager and more than sometimes a catalyst for some lonely specimens of implicitly high strung nerves within the group, ensuring its smooth internal functioning. And last but not least; with Christian who, after thousands of kilometers of potholes, peacefully and kindly drove from venue to venue. All this was of course closely monitored from afar by our dear management team; from Melinda, Sašo and Satch to Andrej, who came (with our better halves) to an absolutely unforgettable evening in Zagreb.

Fully packed and sold out club KSET almost collapsed during the show. This is of course due to the extremely positive energy and the excitement that you channeled straight to us onto the stage. In the meantime it was raining outside.
Thank you, dear friends from Zagreb, for your devoted and warm support!

The road to Ljubljana was filled with memories of the last ten days and  full of expectations because at the end of this tour we are finally moving into out new rock n' roll headquarters. At this moment we lack nothing but a fair start of the spring!
