Odessa International Film Festival 2013

Airborne: somewhere between Kiev & Odessa, 15.07.13

Some time around 8pm...

The day has two midnights: always make sure you pick the right one.

It's a horrible feeling to wake up and realise the midnight flight you were packing for has been and gone and that the other people on that flight are already in Odessa, Ukraine: which is where you should be...

It's a good thing that Ilya, Andrey & Julia who booked us to play at the Odessa International Film Festival are patient.

So...our flights were changed...Aside from a late-running plane and changing terminals at break-neck speed in Kiev, all has gone well so far. Still hoping our guitars had as good a journey as we did-we'll find out in Odessa.

The unsettling and highly amusing experience of suddenly understanding absolutely nothing- not even the alphabet-is worth the journey in itself. Surreal doesn't quite cover it...
