great fun , not a lot of people that night but not empty either.
many well known guys have been there before me ( varella , wittekind etc etc ) , and the guy boro who booked me was really nice.
croatia = red wine and coke ( cola ....not the other kind)
eeeeeuuurrgh!
absolute hangover material.
also i played once in sarajevo , that was wicked! , in a big wharehouse to a largely drum and bass crowd , but they really got into it , and the after party was a lot of laughs.
weird stuff driving to and from the airport and seeing all these bombed out buildings ( yes , still!!! after nearly ten years!!!)
the guy who was driving me was telling me about the war and the time that his entire street ended up living in a basement together.
if you went into the street you were in danger of being shot by snipers , but they still went drinking and clubbing even then
totally mad really , but it just goes to show how adaptable people are andf how the human spirit will just not lie down and take it.
one of the great things about travelling and djing is meeting people like this in these bizarre countries.
one of the worst things is airports and security staff.....but that's another story.
