YAKARI HEADQUARTERS HAVE BEEN FLOODED! From yesterday night until today evening there has been massive water intrusion into YAKARI headquarters. Estimately (? ( a lot!)) liters have found their way into lots of our equipment through walls, so is the presumption.
THIS IS NO JOKE.
Apparently nothing has been REALLY damaged, so that we could not use it anymore, but the flood has certainly left traces in one of the walls, which will have to be trashed and built from scratch, and in the carpets, which we will have to trash unless we'd like the smell of putrid carpets, and we think we don't like it, they stink.
...AND in our relationship to MR. ROTH, which is the caretaker for the building and stood his man by helping us finding the source of water and just consoled us friendly cause we we're desperate and I must say that some of us cried.
Now, somehow I just was at our rehearsal room the day before and maybe instinctively made some iPhone shots of our place... not knowing how things could change within one day when fucking water comes into play and pours in to make trouble. So here's some comarison shots of this misery. Go check it out.
Everything seemed ok yesterday!
The carpets and everything was alright!
BUT THEN
We had to move out everything into a separate room
cause we'll need to save equipment trash the carpets which are now fucked
No easy job to clear a flooded practice room!
Luckily enough there was MR:ROTH wo lend us some helping hand and investigated the case more profoundly
CAUSE, and now listen
MR|ROTH'S and our guess is we PROBABLY have some weed growing neighbors beneath and they maybe have some water issue with their rewatering system or whatever! MAYBE they were right then smoking pot when we've had to carry all our stuff out! Imagine!
Don't get us wrong, we're no weed haters.
BUT here's the thing that really matters.
We've been on the way finishing our next record and we had only some last things left until completion. Besides we need to practice for our upcoming gigs, most importantly in Basel in 2 weeks or so. Now, WTF. So:
We're looking for a new practice room. This has been on our mind for some time now. So if ANYONE knows some place or buddy or anything, who could help us find something new, we'd greatly appreciate... YAKARI HEADQUARTERS HAVE TO MOVE!
Thank yous to yous,
your YAKARI team
