On tuesday, 8th of December, Johnny and I went to a small and intimate concert by Geoff Berner and more.
I meet Johnny after work in Gamla Stan, and we went for something easy to eat. And went looking for the place the concert were supposed to be, The Cove, Stockholm. It was hard to find, but worth it! This was the third time Johnny and I went to a concert with Geoff Berner.

We arrived quite early, the band members of the other band playing, were still practicing a little. But we still sat down and ordered a Kilkenny each. We got to talk to Geoff, which was awesome. He is little guy with a fun appearance.

More people showed eventually up, and we took a seating in a comfy sofa. A while later, The Magnificent Seven started playing. They were great! Playing on accordion, violin, saw, melodica and a cello, and a nice vocal. We chatted a bit with Geoff, he sat next to us during the performance from The Magnificent Seven. The Magnificent Seven will release an album during spring of 2010, and I plan on buying it.

Then it was time. In this tour, Geoff had with him Wayne Adams and Diona Davies. Wayne played the drum and the occasional cymbal. Diona played violin, she was great. And Geoff had of course his accordion. The whole performance was great :)

Geoff Berner is an awesome live performer. He gathers the whole audience and make them sing along and buy him whiskey. For after all, he is the whiskey rabbi. There were many great songs, some sad, some happy and some which made you want to dance like a crazy little monkey.

The concert at The Cove, was the last place to play on the “Drunk and Dancing Europe Tour”. I will look forward to the next time he plays somewhere near me, and I will be sure to be going there!
