I've never had the chance to play in Estonia. so I
was extremely happy when I got this request from my
friend Alex, to play in Club Central Point in Tallin.
I spent about 25 hours in there, but it was so good,
if I'll have a chance I'll go back for sure.
As there's no straight flights from Budapest to the Estonian capital, I had to go to Prague first to get a plane to Tallin. The weather was much warmer there than in Hungary (I was expected terrible cold, winds and the like)
The old town look s amazing. On one of the small streets, I saw something that really made me feel warm inside. A Depeche Mode "Baar"!!! When I first saw the sign of the place it made me curious, as the rose from DM's "Violator" album cover was lighting proudly in the semi dark.
It couldn't be a coincidence, there was Depeche Mode in the air...
DM pictures everywhere, some of them proves the band actually been hanging out here some time ago. Martin Gore seemed to enjoy himself a lot on the pics. Depeche Mode concert video on the screen, the carpet has the same rose as the door sign, most likely custom made for the bar. Hats off to the owners from a Depeche Fan. I I was living in Tallin, you could find me there often.
Club Central Point isn't big, but surely close to everything. The sound was great, everyone was enthusiastic, really into the music. It was a night to remember for sure. Everyone knewthe other clubbers, they asked me to play such old tracks or remixes of mine, I don't usually play on gigs, but they wanted to hear those as well, so it was a really special night.
Thanks Alex, hope we can repeat it.
