First of all, sorry for the nonexisting photos. None were shot, so none can be used here. But who gives a shit about a couple of crappy photos?

Spirit Disease would like to thank Nalle Österman for all his hard work with this club thing he's been doing for the last two years. It's no wonder that he's been thinking of quitting the gig organizing business - there was perhaps 50 people at Stella Star Club the night we played there. It's a rather big place, so to say that it looked "a bit empty" would be the understatement of the year. ;) It probably wasn't the best gig ever for any of the bands, but hey, that's show business for ya - sometimes things just don't go the way one thought they would go. Everything can be arranged and done perfectly and professionally (and that's exactly what mister Österman did), but when the audience doesn't show up, what can you do? Well, we were the opening act of the evening, so we didn't really expect much more, but to our surprise not much more people came in to watch the other two bands, Machete and Rapture. We played our set as usual, but there was something wrong with us too especially with the newer songs. We made a bunch of rather embarrassing mistakes & all that shit. After a not so good/mediocre performance we just sat down and got drunk and watched the other two bands play through their set. That's about it. Nothing special. Machete kicks ass!
