THIS WAS RECORDED VIRTUALLY DUE TO ADRIAN'S FOOT INJURY WHICH YOU'LL LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS LATER WHICH HAS IMPACTED OUR USUAL QUALITY

The boys are back in town, Essen that is with part one of their adventures with so much content we've had to cut it in half.  This episode covers the journeys to the show, our experiences across Day 0 (Weds) to Day 2 (Friday) and also discussing what we've learned from ourselves and each other on the trips.  Part two will be along shortly.

OUR PLAYERS - Adrian, JP & Davey
