Tegan and Sara rocked and entertained Cologne
Driving 350 kms [and another 350 back, of course] and crossing two borders [or four depending on the itinary], that’s what it takes to get to see my favourite twins play. We arrived in Cologne around 1:30pm, had lunch at Bagel Station then took a walk to the venue to see if there was already hundreds of fans camping there. Luckily, there wasn’t. So we went on a tour of downtown Cologne, mostly browsing through the many shops of the city. Until it was time for dinner at Stadtgarten. By 6pm, we were lining up with about 50 people at the doors, which would only open an hour later.Despite the concert supposedly starting at 07:30pm, Karl Larsson of Swedish band Last Days Of April only took the stage at 08pm. He did quite a good job playing his songs solo to a very talkative audience for about 25 mins. The atmosphere was getting very hot as the venue was fully packed. The RnB/Dance music playing when the final touches were made to the stage may not have been the best choice but as soon as Song Within A Song started playing, it didn’t matter anymore. It’s the short instrumental song from the The Con: The Movie DVD and it’s the song the band enters the stage to.
