An all-day festival
in the Gneizno square, not too far from Wagroviec, in the cold and the rain
(Who knew that in Poland the weather fluctuates between 80 and sunny and 40 and
drizzly?). The city had a gigantic stage prepared for us, complete with
big-time lights and, of course, smoke machines. Every stage we played on, no
matter how small, was equipped with a smoke machine, and the Polish A/V guys
would choose particularly climactic musical moments to activate them—-which we
found hilarious. At Pub Max, there was even a little button that happened to be
hanging down from the lights just above me, that I could push whenever I felt
the urge.
Anyway, due to the
weather, we ended up playing--on that enormous stage--for about seven people. And
we spent most of the day huddled in a tiny café in the square, trying to keep
warm and dry, whenever we weren’t on stage. It wasn’t our most “productive” day,
but the Lord had us there for a reason!
