Hi!
Now we have just got out of bed after our first night in NYC. We started very early on tuesday morning in Hölö and went by train and bus to Arlanda airport where Jack and Rob took a breakfast beer.
On the plane we met a bunch of young fans from Umeå, Patrik, Sara, Erik and Lasse (and Patriks brother who's name I have forgotten . A funny detail is that Patriks father is one of Jacks friends from their childhood and they havent met each other for 35 years.
Patrik recognized Jack from our homepage.
We also had a long chat with a guy (think his name is Patrik) who's some kind of a manager for rock and pop musicians.

We had very pleasant flight and we felt well and suddenly we had landed on Newarks airport.
It went very smooth to get into the country, it took no time at all to get trough immigrations and customs.

After that we took a taxi heading for New York City. A spooky detail here is that in the moment when we saw Manhattan in front of us we heard Do do do Heartbreaker on the radio! That was just great!

We checked in to our hotel (1 minutes walk to Broadway), we got a room on the 17:th floor and Jack was very quick to put his Stonesflag up in the window. Then the next thing to fix was the internet connection and as you can see we did make it and sent some pictures over to Vilhelm.

Then we walked out to Times Square and after a quick burger we strolled towards Mustang Harrys on 7:th avenue where we had made up to meet some dutch people from the Forty Flicks Fan Club. On the way we had a stop at Hard Rock Cafe, we had a beer, talked to a big fan from Denver and took a look at the guitars on walls.
We had just sat down at Mustang Harrys and got our first beer when we turned around and there stood Björnulf. We also met two of the dutch fans Pauline and Robin and there were fans from Ireland and Belgium and we had really good time. We all three went home by ourselfes. Ove took a nice walk in the night back to the hotel, Rob came in a taxi an hour later and Jack came in a another taxi God knows when.
Right now we are drinking a good cup of coffe that Rob just have been out to Times Square and fixed for us.  Next  is a shower and then a breakfast at a "coffeshop on 42:th st", you know "I dont need no fancy food and I dont need no fancy wine".

Today is concert day and the first thing after breakfast will be to fetch our tickets for todays show.

The story continues and I hope we will get some more reports done later here.
Ove
