One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We've played in the sun at a freezing-cold Alexanderplatz, Berlin and attracted quite large crowds of people.

The first time we ever did what we call a "reggae-driveby" was amazing. We put the drumkit in the back of our van connected everything else to our battery-driven PA and just drove our car to a place where there had recently been a gig. Many people were standing outside, smoking and talking. And then we drove up. I guess some had a hard time believing or understanding what was happening. We were already playing as we drove up and people just stared. When they got over the initial shock, many of them came to dance by the van. That was an amazing moment.
