H.E.A.T gig at Gröna Lund yesterday


This gig July 27 was the last one with the original H.E.A.T members. Kenny has, like I've written before, taken the decision to leave the band. So this was his farewell and what a night it was!!
One of the best concerts ever and very emotional. The version of Cry was simply outstanding and when they as last tune did Separate ways I promise you that there wasn't many dry eyes in the audience.
A big, big crowd had gathered and it was a both sad and happy night. Kenny sang as he haven't sang for a long time. He really gave it all and his voice reached notes you didn't think was possible so a very worthy last concert with him.

This is the speech Kenny held to the audience. It's only in Swedish unfortunately but he says that it's a very emotional night for him. That there have been a lot of rumours that his voice is gone but his reason for leaving is strictly personal and he will write a letter to fans and put on H.E.A.T's website explaining why he leave.
He also says that he loves us and that he loves the guys and wish them luck in the future and that he will always support them.

I don't konw if it's possible to upload videos here but I will give you a link to the version of Cry. Thanks to one of H.E.A.T's biggest fan, Kristian Reuter, I was able to get this nice videos. He filmed with my videocamera since he was closer to the stage and had free view.


Apart from this we have had, as I told you before a very long heat-wave here in Sweden and it's still on. So Sunday to Monday me and Hasse took a cruise to Åbo in an Executive suite just to be on the sea, to eat good, drink good and just enjoy. We had a great trip.
Now it's only a couple of days left of my vacation and on Monday I'm at work again.

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...
