Quebec, Montreal and Toronto, Canada

Our three concerts in Canada were a great success and the audiences were absolutely wonderful. We had a day off in Quebec and Old town is stunning. see picture below. There were many posters of the show posted around town.
After a long journey back and nightly border crossing we are back in the USA. Pittsburgh it is !

Thanks great pics

Pittsburgh, PA and Rochester, NY

In Pittsburgh we encountered a Hofbrauhaus, under license from the German original. Having grown up in Munich I checked it out and must admit, the beer and food is very good. Some of us treated ourselves to a visit to the movies ( "Star Trek" it was). $5.- and free popcorn , amazing.. prices to dream of in Los Angeles
The next day I visited the Andy Warhol Museum. Very impressive and we learned a lot about this artist. My hotel room was furnished with "Post Horn" night stand lamp ! Our horn player loved it...
After a great concert in the Mellon arena, we headed to Rochester, NY for the next show.
Some of us visited the famous Eastman School of Music before heading to soundcheck. I saw this interesting Art Deco bldg. across the arena.
After the show we got treated to "Dinosaur" BBQ - fantastic.
You locals know what I mean by that.
Now we arrived in Albany on a windy day for our day off. Looking forward seeing you all over the weekend for 3 more shows before we take a little break and head back to our homes..

Beautiful pictures.. Sounds like a wonderful time touring in the different cities you all are performing in.. The dinner sounds really yummy! Thanks for the post...Have a great three more shows and enjoy your down time...

Hi Benedikt! I'm enjoying reading your travel diary very much. You narrate a great travel log!! I can hardly wait to read what you have to say about your trip out west. I can PROMISE you that you will NOT encounter cold(er) weather when you get out here.

Albany, NY

After a fun show in Albany we are driving to Atlantic City, NJ. We heard that Foxwood is sold out for Sunday which is exciting. It is supposed to be a gigantic casino and venue.I will post new pic soon. Now is bedtime on the bus.

Cheers

Benedikt

Hi Benedikt - The Foxwoods Casino is gigantic. I think you will like it there.
However, the Arena at the Mohegan Sun Casino (not far from there) is alot bigger. Maybe when they add more dates to this wonderful tour, you can go to the Mohegan Sun Casino too! See you at Foxwoods! Can't wait!

Atlantic City, NJ & Foxwood, CT

Boardwalk Hall is impressive. Built in 1927. they put a complete new stadium seating in there at a later point.
We had a well attended concert. We also got a new bus with musical notes ! Very thoughtful.
I include a shot from the dismantling of the stage. Wow, the crew is so fast and amazing.
Tonight at Foxwood MGM is sold out. Lots of trees around here, as you can see.

Enjoy the show if you are attending and see you on the West Coast and Midwest after our short break. Thanks for all your comments. i am glad you like the pics I take w/ my tiny cel phone.
