Easter week-end in Warsaw

day 40
Slept. Video. The castle was emptied out when we went out to the art supply store. It's the Easter week-end. Evening @ Mitch's rehearsal space. Little party there with a few musicians jamming. Nice place in a rundown factory building. After that worked some more 'till 4am. Sleep.

days 41/42
Everything's is closed, streets are empty. Met Artur8 and DJ Joakim who came straight from Paris to play in a deserted Club 1955 where about one girl danced - or two. When the party was over the club owner took us and the whole dj crew to his other club, a pimp-style after-hour bar with some creepy audience moving enthusiastically to dancy house tunes. Free vodka for the guests. An empty second dancefloor with dj Martin Shaft on some trancetec-kinda-boom-boom-sound. Not too bad though. The crowd on the house floor was either on speed or just very horny. Left that place with an amazing sunset on our walk back to the castle. Wasted. Long sleep. Empty sunday afternoon then. A little work, some cooking. Took a cab to Marcin's place in the evening. Nice and comfortable talk about music, Warsaw, Poland and the rest of the world. Two bottles of vodka - Nick is still sleeping, Julien tries to recover. Happy Easter.
