Idunno Tour Post 2

So we are 5 days into the tour, and it´s been hard posting anything because its been hard getting our claws on the good ol´ internet.
So we played 3 dates so far, Bath, Coventry and yesterday we had the single-release for Idunno at hoxton bar and kitchen,
it went really well and we had a fun night.
We went shopping for tights at the Camden-market earlier that day so we premiered them at the single-launch, i must admit that
it feels really good with those stretchy sex-fiends wrapped around the pale old sticks and i suppose it´s a feeling you come back to.
Again and again, and again once more.

So the weather has been really nice and we´ve met alot of friendly peeps.

We were supposed to go to the zoo but we did´nt manage to get up in the morning so we had to let the tigers down.
We went to the movies on our night off instead, we brought a bottle of red wine each and smuggled it into the really expensive Leicstersquare theatre
and enjoyed the hell out of ourselves while watching Inglorious Basterds, after that we went dancing at various establishments in Old Street.
We learned that Londoners are really afraid of letting their guards down, and dancing the night the way is the best thing in the world,
but we allready knew that.
Pure magic.


here we are now in the underworld...

Idunno Tour Post 1

Tour is a-happening, and we just finished a gig in Bath.
It was a Jane Austin festival in town with alot of people dressed up as ladies and gentlemen from
the old times, man i´m glad i did´nt live in those times.
So the sun is up and so is our spirit, give it a week and we´d be like wolves fighting for a sunday turkey.
After the show at Moles(the venue) we were handed a poem by a guy, but i think he was delivering it from a shy girl,
it seemed like a spontanious thing, and we were really touched and happy to receive it, and for your pleasure we are gonna post it on our B:L:O:G!
Stay saturated for new Adventures.

for markus

allright everyone of you!
we´re back, its a weird thing having a blog it´s almost like a friend that
you really like to hang out with for a while, and then like a fading trend you just
throw that glowstick away, untill you pick up where you left it and think it´ll glow forever.

anyways,
so camp ungdomskulen is doing well, we are located in a new practice-space/studio
after the nasty fire, and we have slowly started to work on new songs.
or a song.
we have a 7"-single coming out in europe this fall, its a single for idunno with a previoulsy unreleased gem for the b-side, we´ll tell you more about that as things are ready and steady.
the cover-photo is mindbending, you´ll see.
its really one for the collectors.

so,last weekend we played a festival located in the longest fjord in the world or something, at least its the deepest, anywho,.. the festival is located in the most amazing sorroundings, and the festival well it was called fresn.
its an old friend and sometimes stage-saxomofonist for u.s that runs it, and while going there we also got to see a live reindeer and a waterfall that´s on the unesco herritage list, its like the 600 wonders of the world or something, we drank water coming from the mountains like goats and were free-spirited and loose.
let us show you...

this used to be our playground




early sunday morning the 7th of sebtember, skuteviksbodene 13 burned to the ground.
leaving ungdomskulen and 40 other bergen based bands without rehearsal-rooms.
not only that but countless of instruments,gear and personal stuff were vaporised in
the intense flames.
fortunately no-one was hurt!
its a tragedy, but there is hope!
money is raised and people are helping each other!

hallo trutnov!

wedding thrashers

being a band with no restrictions as far as playing-ground goes, ungdomskulen performed their most leftfield gig to date, at a wedding.
we didnt play covers mind you, we let the groom pick from our hardhitting back catalogue of prog-punk jams.
it wasnt any wedding though, it was a really nice, sweet wedding, with hints of greek passion and poetic grandeur of past times.
we where a little nervous at our arrival(we were afraid that we´d ruin the whole wedding and everyone would hate us) but when we left we had been part of
limbo-dancing, dancer-in-the-ring and a bona fide moshpit(some wedding).
we were all alittle touched,tired, in love with life and red-cheeked, all according to protocol.

here we are now with the beautiful bride and groom, oda and leiv otto
