Today it's only 3 days left to Firefest in Nottingham and me seeing H.E.A.T with their new leadsinger Erik for the first time. I'm very excited since I have seen some videos from the gig in Germany and it promises to be very good!!
But first things first. On Friday evening me and my good friend Carina went to the grand opening of Andrea Chénier at the Royal Opera. Many celebrities enjoyed together with us this wonderful opera. I had never heard of it before and I wasn't pleasantly surprised. It's set during the French revolution and in the first scene there is a big party with the nobility when suddenly lots of poor people come and they take the servant Gérard with them and he becomes one of the leaders of the revolution. Andrea Chénier who is a poet falls in love with the daughter of the house and of course Gérard also are in love with her. You get the picture. Beautiful music, a great tenor and soprano and a devine conductor. All in all a wonderful premier.

The day after I was off early to see Mom. She wasn't at her best and didn't recognize me at first. It's hard when your mother doesn't know your name or who you are. But I chatted and told her about my visit to her cousin and talked a lot about old days and gradually she started talking. We laughed a lot but I'm not totally convinced she knew who I was because when I left she said: Bye my little mother.
Tomorrow I have a boardmeeting with the Rheumatic assocation and then Thursday I really need to pack.
Helen is coming over and she will stay the night because we need to be at Arlanda at 6.15 at the latest.
So a weekend full of rockmusic awaits me, Helen and everyone else. Great!!!
I will of course try to take a lot of photos as well as film the event :-)
Take care and I'll talk to you later....
