Went over with my band, played 24 shows in about 28 days, from Valencia, Spain all the way up to Oslo, Norway, had a fucking blast.

Comparing the USA to Europe in several random thoughts:

Portions are much smaller in Europe, for everything. No big gulps, tiny cups of coffee, even at fast food places (a supersized meal at a mcd's gives you a medium sized drink and a medium fry)...Most of the cars are tiny, some you could probably pick up with 2 people and a little effort. People drive like real pussies most places. Redbull was banned in all of Scandanavia. Gas is absurdly fucking expensive everywhere (about $7 to $8 gallon equivalent)...Holland/Netherlands is the most liberal and chilled out place on the planet, and Dutch people are fucking cool. Actually, most European people are pretty fucking cool, even the French...but German cops in Bavaria are NAZIS, our driver had to take a roadside piss test and after testing positive for THC from a week earlier, went to jail and had to pay 450 euros to get out. Actually got a pretty weird vibe from most Germans, I think they're still sore about us pummeling them in 2 wars. Cigarrettes are too fucking expensive except in Spain...Spain is the California of Europe, people there party their asses off, it's warm and everybody smokes hash. Hard drugs in Europe are complete shit, but the hash rules. People take beer VERY seriously, and everybody drinks. Scandanavian women are fucking incredible, so are french girls, dutch girls and spanish girls....belgian chicks and german chicks are a little too rugged, at least the ones we saw. There are no billboards anywhere...cops pull you over from the front...there is shitty graffitti in every nook and cranny of concrete, even the most remote farmhouses. Very little traffic except for Paris (the worst I've ever seen)...very safe vibe across the board (not really in Paris though)....After living in a dangerous fucking city (ATL) my whole life, it's nice to go somewhere and not have to be constantly looking over your shoulder worried about sketchy crackhead fucks. Parking is a fucking nightmare, everywhere....tons of people ride bikes, and most cities have big bike lanes. Very few black people. People mind their own fucking business and are honestly nicer and a lot more civilized than your average american. Lots of cow and pig shit smells in the countryside. And most every country was COLD. Never realized how much further north most of Europe is than the USA.
