As Stefan emailed me last week, the band is busy rehearsing for the upcoming gig : Also just began rehearsals for our show in Göteborg on the 26th.Which will of course be fun but at the same time takes much neededtime from working on the new album. Work on new album is now on iceuntil after the show. But of course we have done some work already, Olleand me are in an intense period right now with the songwriting. In the mean time I recommend reading the Olle Thörnvall book "I and I and "I" ". It's downloadable from the website, in PDF :http://www.trettioarigakriget.com/website/book.aspIt's a biography of sorts. From Olle's perspective.I'm reading it now and it's a great read. Sometimes emotional, sometimes informative and sometimes just plain fun! I'm only halfway but I've learned a lot about Sweden already!As I said, recommended!

Message: Te latest from TK myspace: Hello dear friends.In the evening of Friday the 31st of October I gota terrible pain in my lower back, it also went down inmy left leg. Spent a sleepless night and then saturdaymorning off to the emergency clinic. Got the diagnosislumbago and precriptions for different medicines.Hard to put words on the pain really....just let me say thatit makes you really revalue what is important in life.One other immediate issue was that TK had a show bookedon Saturday the 7th on the Rock at Sea festivalcruise leavingfrom Stockholm. I was rather pessimistic about it that weekend,But....I slowly got better last week and last Friday decidied I wantedto have a go at it...So on Saturday afternoon I took a taxi to the ferry terminal and boardedthe ship with the other guys in TK....I felt very shaky during the soundcheckbut somehow the adrenalin came rushing during the show and I think wemanaged a very good gig...warm response from the audience and goodsound and spirit. Luckily for me this was a short gig...only one hour.Arrived back in Stockholm on Sunday..a taxi back home and straight to bed.Feel better from day to day now..so hopefully I am back in business soon!Otherwise TK finished 2nd in an online poll, "Best Swedish Progressive Rockband Ever".We were beaten with only one vote by our friends the Flower Kings. But silver is OK too.Thanks to all who voted for us.Except for a show in Göteborg, Sweden on the 28th of ¨March next year TK has noshows booked. Instead we will work on a new album, the last in the trilogy whichstarted with "Elden av år" and "I början och slutet".Olle(lyrics) and me has already started the writing.There is no releasedate set but we hope to have it out next autumn 2010.I will of course keep you updated here as the work progresses.Anyway..think that´s all for now...stay healthy...and take care.Peace and love fromStefan Mon, 16 Nov 2009 13:30:50 +0000 http://www.progforums.com/punforum/viewtopic.php?pid=796#796 796@http://www.progforums.com/punforum Topic: The latest news!

Message: No sign of a DVD yet but here's some more info on their upcoming gigs: Hello friends...It..s been some time since I last wrote here but things have been kind ofhectic lately. One of the main reasons is I have been renovating my bathroombelieve it or not..smiles...Have been without hotwater for a month almost.It really makes you think how spoiled we are nowadys taking somany things for granted.Anyway...The band have had a short break last months. Well almost...Ollehas been writing some lyrics for the next album which I am currentlylooking at. In April we will start to rehearse for our show at the Nearfest Festivalin Bethlehem, PA, US.

In Froberg it isn't.Same goes for the K in Kriget by the way. Why not pronounce it as "sj" like in KYRKA ? It's "sj" before a vowel and a proper K before a consonant. At least that makes the most sense to me :D Sat, 14 Mar 2009 21:05:40 +0000 http://www.progforums.com/punforum/viewtopic.php?pid=357#357 357@http://www.progforums.com/punforum Topic: Pronunciation of Trettioåriga Kriget Message: Ah, but why is the G in Kriget pronounced as a hard G, rather than the sort of Y sound heard in names like Fröberg?
