Risqué!

Well, the wonderf of the Internet!!! A few days ago I received a mail from a dear old friend, Diva, the lead singer of a band I used to play with in London. I had been looking for him for ages but never found a single trace. The band was called Risqué (Flex in the beginning). Amazing surprise also because Diva sent me some pictures that I had lost, pictures of us on stage newspaper articles about us, backstage passes, etc. We started to remind each-other of different episodes of our youth, like a tour with the Eurythnmics, gigs at the Rock Garden, a mythical gig at the Hyppodrome where I left my drum kit, never to be collected again. I had officially put the music business behind me at that point. I can't quite remember if I started playing with Pleasure and the Beast and with Naked Lunch after that or if that period was prior to Risqué, which is a terrible sign of senility from my part.
Soon Diva will come to visit me in Stockholm, hopefully for the release party for my book, and then he will bring me the DVD of that famous gig at the Hyppodrome. I can't wait to see it, but more than that, I can't wait to see Diva again.
Here are some of the pictures from those glorious days Diva is the singer and you can see me hidden behind the drums...)
Thank you Diva!

Always hidden behind the drums and Diva in front...
