Catl Invades Europe, Tour Write Up Part 2 While Rolling Through Belgium

Catl Invades Europe, Tour Write Up Part 2 While Rolling Through Belgium and meeting the good luck monkey.

So we got driven to Mons, which is an hour away from Brussels in two small cars with all our gear. I said "wouldn't one giant American-style car be enough?", and everyone hugged and laughed and lit their cigarettes.

We played downtown near their city hall where they had a beautiful giant Christmas tree surrounded by some very unsteady skaters. Apparently, we shouldn't expect any hockey threats coming out of Belgium.

Sarah and me prepped for the show by 'touching the good luck monkey' near the Mons City Hall. We reluctantly rubbed its shiny little noggin and wouldn't you know it, the show was killer. Thanks Mr. Lucky-Monkey-Man!

While on stage a rather large Belgian man on crutches climbed on stage and began yelling something in French in my face. To which I asked if he had a request. The bouncers then dragged him away and we carried on, trying our best to rile up the rest of the crowd.

We drove back to Brussels, where Sarah ate a late-night potato snack and all was right in Belgium.

We have 2 days off that we're spending in Cologne, Germany with our friends Frank and Sabina. Sunday night they took us to a Christmas market for some mulled wine. We felt very German. 

Diggin' the write ups from Catl? Well dive into their tunes!
