excitedSunday: Alarm goes off at 6.30 am to pick up a friend in Eindhoven, then drive to the German city of Essen for the annual SPIEL games trade show and fair, the biggest in Europe. On our way, we're listening to that same radiostation. At one point, they ask to call in and qualify for the grand finale where the tickets will be given away. I call in, I get through, I recognize three snippets of Jamiroquai hits and I end up in a high hat together with other contestants. Out of the 10 qualifiers, 2 were going to be called back for the finale.
The day goes on, I spend a little cash on roleplay books and a new game, ice cream and german bockwurst mit bratkartoffeln. At 5.30 pm my phone rings. It's the guys from 3FM. All of a sudden I'm in the final round, playing a quiz against another contestant. All Jamiroquai questions. I blow her out of the water 5-0.
Result: This saturday I'm flying to
NEW YORK CITY
for four days, including attending aJAMIROQUAI
concert on Times Square!If I manage to meet him as well I can die a happy man.
Oh, I asked
