Title:Friday...longest day of all -- Part 2 

After school, we went to eat a bit in an English pub but had to hurry off to Austrumkrasta Robezs where we had to film a one-hour long "Unplugged" style TV show about Adam Zahl among the makeshift "Siena skunis" barn complete with hay and Kimmel sponsorship. The Soviet style furnishings (Kalashnikovs and Stalin busts) rounded out the picture in this basement bar.

The day was not yet done, as we had to head to Cita Opera for our final Riga show. Upon arrival at the club, we had yet another impromptu TV interview for teen show "Troksnis" ("Noise").

The show was really well attended and special thanks to Eriks "the car thief" Kronitis for sponsoring our pre-concert party in his home. We did a post-show interview for internet portal aktualnet.lv too.
