Welcome to Nice, my friend !!

Beware the Octoporsche !!!!

Despite being back in the band's hometown of Nice
~ this has been a very challenging and difficult week
~ for the Gypsy Queens

Normally ~ their days in Nice are fairly restful and routine
~ and they often finish an evening's performance
~ by settling down ~ to a bite to eat ~ and a few beers

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~ the photos below show the band
~ in one of their usual locations
~ enjoying a chance to relax
~ and discuss the day's performance
~ and their upcoming schedule
~
~
~ unfortunately ~ this week has been anything but routine




Manuel and Didi


Jason and David

"I found an adult octopus today!!!!
..... it was bigger than me and massively scary!"
~ Jason

"Still can't understand how I survived"
~ Didi

"Wow, you are a very very lucky man!"

"When the weather's fine, you got women, you got women on your mind

~ have a drink, have a drive, go out and see what you can find!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hopefully ~ things will be back to normal

~ soon !!!

Breakfast in Paris, Lunch in Genève, Dinner in Nice

The band arrived back in Nice ~ on Wednesday
~ happy to be home



~ but they were still busy ~ along the Cote d'Azur
~ which continues to draw tourists and locals alike

On the Road ~ in London

"May this be love or just confusion,

born out of frustration,

wracked feelings

of not being able

to make true physical love

to the Universal Gypsy Queen

of true, free expressed music."

~

Jimi Hendrix

London, June 1967

David arrives in London



while Jason and Didi ~ make an entrance





~ on a recent Gypsy Queens trip to England





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jason's bass can be a logistical challenge
~ on occasion

~ here Manuel, David and Jason assess the odds
~ of fitting into a London cab with their instruments





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~and ~ on their return trip home
~ the next day


~ Manuel and Didi
~ in the back of another London cab
~ on the way to a train station
~ to get them to an airport
~ for the flight back to Nice





~ and the burning question of the day ???

~ would we make it to the airport
~ in time ~ for a Whopper ?!?!?
