Cheers Bar, Fieberbrunn, Austria, minus 20 degrees outside, plus 35 degrees inside, room full of older, chain-smoking Austrians, wondering what the hell we were doing and saying, we’re dying physically and mentally, drummer paralytic, too much vodka and Weissbier, enter Brown Eyed Girl to save the day, thank you Van, just never know when you might need him.
