A little late we took the intercity train with a invalid ticket from Basel (Switzerland)to Stuttgard https://www.tradebit.com slept at the check in hall and the next day we flew into Seattle,5 boys and a https://www.tradebit.com got hosted by craig (who didn''t knew us before!) and bought a car that broke down after 8 miles(tranny).

When we tryed to leave the street was so steep and our car so much overloaded that we had to push it uphill to leave San https://www.tradebit.comway we made it to Antigua where we could play again and where we met 3 ´boys´from the ¨Buena Vista Social Club´.What a drag that we don´t haver our Basilona Compilation from the ¨Buena Volta Social Club´with us(Volta is a squat in Basel,Switzerland).In Guatemala City we spend a whole day going from Embassy
to Embassy trying to get an affordable (not $350)for Ines (Peru) to get into Costa Rica and trying to get some new pages in my passport(we need empty pages to stamp the car into it at each border),but no success.

In Costa Rica we got hosted by the people of "los
magos del tiempo" (circus).Here in San Jose we want to
make the money we need to ship our car to south
america(couple thousand $).Right now we just have $1
left to buy something to cook (beans,
potatoes,bananas).We also try to go play but none of
the restaurants want to let us https://www.tradebit.com go play at the
traffic lights where we made $2 so we could cook two
more https://www.tradebit.com next days are better we play
downtown,where we get invited to play at a kultural
festival beside the stages inbetween https://www.tradebit.comce we
attracted more people than they had in front of the
official stages ,3 different TV stations filmed us and
broadcasted the stuff.A forth TV station asked to film
a concert of https://www.tradebit.com we rented a place to make a
concert and made a little trip to puerto viejo where
we played at standfords.
Back in sSan jose we played again on the srteet
,selling much more cd''s because all the people knew us
from https://www.tradebit.coms way we turned our local fame into $1400
we took with us to https://www.tradebit.com the border they first
wouldn''t let us in because they couldn''t do the
paperwork for Aurelio(our dog).It was a hard night
waiting since i had a inflammation in a neve of a
tooth.2 days later i was finally at a dentist in
panama city.
Here we play our first set on the street at get filmed
right away by cascara tv(it will be broadcasted this
sat evening).We try to find a chaep possibility to
ship our car and us to south america but it''s
https://www.tradebit.com we found till now is horribly
expensive(ship car and us $2800).
Even after driving to the weirdest piers in colon
talking to pirates,fishermans and drug dealers we
didn''t found a affordable way south .The winds in the
caribik are bad since 2 weeks and many boats didn''t
arrive https://www.tradebit.com only affordable boat left yesterday and
will be back in 2 month...
Now we think about selling our car and all the stuff
we don''t really https://www.tradebit.com look for gigs, make
interwiws,wash the car,go play the streets etc.
We make everything we could do to move on https://www.tradebit.com
don''t have many CD''s left and our drummer is waiting
without money in equador...

radiostation,tell your friends who might have a
sailboat in panama and are going south that we''re
https://www.tradebit.comtion that our wunderful CD''s are awailable

and pray etc.
hello from panama city
marco
Panama-city.
So were stuck here...
Not enough money to ship the car with a container, nor to send the band to https://www.tradebit.comeless i followed some tourist, so i could sell them some cd''s to make at least a little https://www.tradebit.com miracle ,these torists were swiss and were traveling with a car and wanted to send theyr car also south..
It was not easy to convince them to share a container with us but finally they did and both of us saved about $650 to send the https://www.tradebit.com i flew with sille and pedro(the swiss couple)to guayaquil to get the car at the port and the rest of the band tryed theyr luck to get by bus and little boats to colombia and from there with the bus to quito where we wanted to meet again.
In Guayaquil it turned out to be really difficult to clear the cars at the customs and get them aut of the port. I was lucky to have the swiss couple fighting with me and theyr creditcard to get our cars. It took a week and costed another $400 i didn''t had...
From the band I didn''t had any news,beside the one that the caribean sea whether is bad and that two of three boats(small!)drowned and that nowbody is willing to risk his life for some insolvent hippies..
Still waiting for news i got the car and met our new drummer aimara who drove by bus from buenos aires to equador to finally meet Mañana me https://www.tradebit.comn he ''s black he got robbed on his way and arrived with $ 6 in guayaquil .So we got with the last gas in the tank to montanita where we played drum and trumpet and made some fleamarkets to get gas money to get to quito ,where we were supposed to meet the others.
But still no news from the boys who even after 2 weeks never arrived in colombia from where they could send mails again...
We tryed to book some gigs and print more cd''s when we got the news that they are in colombia - alive!
when we meet them they looked like people who where for years far from https://www.tradebit.completely sunburned with blond hair,hungry and happy to be close to a https://www.tradebit.com amps and the instruments were broken or https://www.tradebit.comyr story was frightening :They got stuck in el porvenir after taking a little boat to there where only the relaxed face of the indio steering the boat gave them a little hope that they won''t drown...
There they stayed about a week till some americans took them with theyr catamaran to san blas .They walked about 2 hours through the djungle with the broken amps and instruments and took then a speed boat to colombia. The speedboat looked save but turned out to be extreemely painfull for the kidneys since it struck the waves really hard and of course the poor hippies where seated where it hurts most...The boys swared never to enter a boat like that!
Entering Colombia they where searched the first time in the whole trip for drugs!
Then it turned out to be almost impossible to take a bus with a dog in https://www.tradebit.comy stopped to ask the busdrivers and tom becker just hid the dog under his jacket and entered the bus fast...
So we played the first time with aimara in Guapulo(quito) and went then to montanita to make some money there since this place is packed in the "semana santa".We made enough to get to lima where we only arrived because tom becker woke me up while i was driving!(i''ll never drive too tired again).
So we slept in real beds again, ate wunderfull meals prepared from ines'' mother(carlos and ines will marry soon!) .
We played two gigs and made a super nice party with hard core ska band from lima in the house of ines and her https://www.tradebit.com were on the road again! we have a little gas money and a few cd''s left over and are packed with many stories...
