God Dethroned tour blog part 3

Susan Gerl of God Dethroned reports in from their North American tour:

Time for a recap of the second and last part of our US tour! These last 12 days simply flew by and we played many cool shows in the meantime. On my birthday we played a very cool show in Seattle! A big thank you to everyone in the crowd for the nice birthday wishes and for wanting to hear so many of our songs so that we ran out of them in the end, haha! The other bands and our tour manager Erin bought me a doughnut (with a very special shape, hehe) and I got a nice birthday card and a bottle of whiskey, which we shared on the bus since we had a very long drive from Seattle to St. Paul that night.



















We played a very good gig at Station 4 and met many friendly people there. One day later we played in Milwaukee at the Rave which is an amazing venue with a very beautiful, yet eerie atmosphere at the same time, since it is claimed to have haunted cellars. Opposite the venue was the place where Jeffrey Dahmer used to live and he supposedly got rid of the dead bodies via underground tunnels to the other side of the street, where the Rave is situated, so obviously we did a full tour through the underground tunnels with all the bands during which Matt and Shaun of Woe of Tyrants proved to be really professional touring guides, haha!




Our gigs in Cleveland, Toronto and especially Montreal because of the great crowd went really well.
When we played at the Webster in Hartford there was another band playing in the same venue and they drew this huge crowd of screaming 14 year-old girls which was pretty hilarious because every time they opened their backstage window they all went berserk, hehe!
Glad we don't have fans like that ;-)




On 16 October we played in New York and since we arrived there early we had some time to do some sightseeing which was really interesting. I have never been to New York before, so it was really nice to see all the landmarks, which you usually only see on tv, for real once.
