Brasilia! Thanx for an overwhelming evening! Such a beautiful crowd, fantastic response. Sorry that the electricity wasn’t on our side which meant that we couldn’t use all our lights. It didn’t matter! We had a blast. Hope to come back before long!!!! Cheers, P&M&Co

The sign

As we love this sign, we don’t want it to be forgotten. It’s a little bit nostalgic, old-school and at the same time fresh and funny. Photo taken during Sao Paulo gig on May 10. The sign was created by Elen Zdunek and her boyfriend.
