- by Scott Fitterer, USA about the cast’s travel day from Mexico City, Mexico to Lulea, Sweden.
The idea behind this blog is to show some of the insight to what random things happen during a 48 hour travel day
10:32 pm
Riding home from our last show in North America, and Mexico, we will be on a plane in 11 hours. I will never forget how we were rock stars at all of our shows. And that today the stage broke about 90 min before our show, add in some fireworks for spice as our finish.
12:33 am
I am about to go to bed. I will get a power nap in, roughly four hours of sleep before this flying to Sweden happens. Here goes nothing!

Even though it is early on a Sunday morning with very little traffic I still wish that I was already at my drop off. This way I know that I would be on the bus bound for the airport.

On the bus, we are either so tired or something to the point that there was an impromptu ¨backstreets back alright.¨
