Here we are in Liechtenstein, surrounded by animals.

Austrian Death Machine – "Quad Brutal"
Rise of the machines, anyone??
This is how calm and zen I am after 10 days of merciless introspection, emotional regression, physical endurance, mental and physical purification, and not a single damn beer.
Here we are in Kraków, which is probably the best-kept bigger city in Poland. – Which, again, is probably the most overlooked country I've ever been to.
Ihsahn – "Ihsahn"
Not necessarily a masterpiece, but undeniably the work of a master
Sunset vibe greetings from Malta
Yes: The sumbitch FINALLY got himself some new sunglasses. You can all breathe normally again. And possibly do other shit normally. Like, shit normally. I dunno.

Sometimes you CAN judge a book by its cover
KMFDM – "Let Go"
Yeah, they're still going at it
Saxon – "Hell, Fire and Damnation"
When someone leaves the heavy metal machine on overnight
Here we are in classy little Potsdam, about a half-hour drive southwest of wonderful Berlin. Probably shoulda gone during a sunnier time of the year, but like I'm saying in the video, we were there for a certain concert.

The great Southeast Asia sundown rundown!
Last stop, last hotel, and last video from Southeast Asia. This time, we're looking back and doing a bit of evaluation of a true lifetime experience.
Belated birthday greetings from KL by night!
Yeah, remember that secret country from our last video? We went to Malaysia to celebrate my birthday. However, amongst other observations, here's why that didn't exactly turn out as planned. (And this is where my comments about recovering from food poisoning on that last video should start making sense).
"It's a holiday in Cambodia..."
Yes, still with the dumb sunglasses. I'm sorry for all of us.
Yes, just so you're prepared, my old sunglasses had to go and fall apart like a childhood dream during a college exam period. I only have these with me, and everything's kinda... not that cheap in Cambodia so far, so we'll have to stick these ones out together for a while.
Filter – "The Algorithm"
So, is this considered "oldschool" now?
Greetings from paradise on Earth!
Yep, Belinda Carlisle was right: Heaven, in fact, IS a place on Earth, and it just so happens to be a small city in northern Laos:
