Disclaimer:

This bootleg was recorded on 22.02.2016 in the capital of Hungary during The Grand Astoria's "Road Test Tour". This time it was a bit unusual: we were literally rehearsing the new songs on stage, trying new arrangements, fearlessly testing different ideas "right here, right now". We also started with very raw sketches of the lyrics and I was trying to add a line or two every day, brainstorming in the van while we were moving towards another destination mark. Budapest gig was just the 4th show in our schedule so most of the new songs still had just meaningless blah-blah-blah (think Nirvana's "Tourette's") word combinations. This will probably make some gentle ears bleed but that's the way how I wanted it all to be. So don't mind minor mistakes here and there ,better picture yourself in the band's practice room and watch (hear) the songs evolving right in front of you and let the music flow.
P.S. By the end of the journey we mastered our skills and now ready to cut the new tracks properly in the studio. So the initial goal was achieved.
