SD9: Sundsvall Tonhallen

Today was a smaller venue with a smaller crowd than yesterday. We arrived again at 09:00, but everyone was still in good spirits, probably because tomorrow is finally a day off.

My merch stand was set up in the lobby this time, which was definitely a tighter space, but I adjusted the setup a bit and it still ended up looking good. Today was the day I would wear my squeaky pants.

Niko and Massa had a slightly easier day on tour today. Usually, they help with ticket scanning, but that task got taken away from them this time… so they unofficially became my security guards instead, haha.

Caesar is helping me with sales every night now, and it’s honestly becoming more fun with every show. After the performance, the artists always do a meet-and-greet, which I also handle merch for. Caesar completely matched the vibe tonight with his outfit.

After yesterday’s conversations with Tobias, the promoter, we’ve also started building a bit of a friendship or connection. He keeps sending me music to listen to actually some really cool stuff.

After the show, I went out with the crew. We only had about an hour, but these are Finns… they can fit quite a lot of drinking into one hour.

When the bar closed, there were still a few girls hanging around with our group. After a quick stop at a gas station, we tried to get a taxi back to the bus, but Sundays in Sundsvall aren’t exactly lively. The only taxi driver had already stopped working.

In the end, I rode back on one electric scooter with Niko. Otherwise, it would’ve been a 25-minute walk, which honestly also wouldn’t have been the end of the world.
