A post for everyone who's suffering from withdrawal

From Lee-Withdrawal that is. Aren't we all though?

The tour ended on this day exactly one month ago. It's always amazing (and sometimes scary) how time flies.

I had said in my last post, that it wasn't acutally the last post (which is true) and that it wouldn't take as long with the next update as it took to write the last post (which is not true).

Well... what can I say other than dealing with real life is often more time-consuming than I wish it was. I've also been dealing with computer problems, so...

But enough of that. I'm here to bring some more Lee to you, in photos and videos.

First off... you may not remember but the very first blog post while being on the road for the Tales From Britain tour came from Munich. Back then I didn't have time to post any pictures from the show and promised I would post them another time.

Well... some quick 52 days later... ahem... here they are. Enjoy!

(Remember... size matters, so please click the individual photo to enlarge it).

In for some videos, watching Lee onstage now? Yeah... I thought so. Let's stay in Munich and get started with the wonderful "Smile". Watch... and smile :-)

And while it's so nice in Munich, here's for "Falling In Love For The Last Time". Enjoy.

What about Lee cracking you up with a funny story? With this one he regularly managed to have people howling with laughter. (Translation for parts of what he says in the video for the non-English-speakers below.)

So his first full German sentence is: "Während meiner letzten Tour hatte ich nie einen Ständer", menaing that during his last tour he never had a stand (for his guitar). Tricky thing is though: the word "Ständer" in German means stand as well as boner. :-) Next German sentence he says is "Bei dieser Tour, ich möchte einen haben." (For this tour I would like to have one.) Guess the rest is clear ;-).

That clip was from Magdeburg, by the way. So let's stay in Magdeburg then for the beautiful "Hindsight".

Here's another song I've recorded in Magdeburg. It's "A Girl In New York". However... it's not performed by Lee alone but it was one of the two songs he regularly performed together with the lovely Paper Aeroplanes. I think Lee & Sarah sound SO good together for that song... they should acutally record it together ;-) Sorry for cutting Rich out of the picture but ... he didn't fit into the zoom lens. Sorry, Rich...This was, unlike the other videos that were recorded with the iPhone, recorded with the SLR camera.

And while we're at it, here's the 2nd song that the Trio performed together. It's one of PA's songs, called "Newport Beach". Check it out, it's beautiful. (This one was recorded in Munich.)

Wanna hear the story about Lee's encounter with a lady on Hamburg's Reeperbahn? (For those unfamiliar with what the Reeperbahn is... is there anyone?? Click here for more information.)
