Mette Lindberg of The Asteroids Galaxy Tour checked in with fans on the Danish alternative pop group’s blog at MySpace on Sunday (March 1), talking about their time in New York. The singer tells readers:
Me and Lars just got back to Copenhagen after a week of promotion and good times in NY.
For one of the interviews we made sushi at a restaurant (Bond Street) just next to “The Loft” where we played in November last year. We did very well I think. Now I know how to do the spicy tuna roll – Woop. And I found out that I love the eel with avokado, Yum Yum !!!

Mette Lindberg of The Asteroids Galaxy Tour checked in with fans on the Danish indie pop group’s blog at MySpace on Thursday (February 12). The singer tells readers:
Yesterday we had the early flight from Denmark to France.. zzzz!!
Because of the snowy weather the metro was not to be trusted. I of course did not check it out before leaving home, so I got to the airport in the last minute.
When I went to check in, the check in man told me to pay for the keyboard I normally carry for free, as hand baggage. It is a new thing, you have to pay extra if you bring instruments. It does not matter if it’s small and talking less space than a bag with baby stuff or an antique lamp from Rome, that is for free. No, instruments are being treated as their own kind..how stupid is that!!!
You don’t want to hear that when you are in a hurry and have to stand in one more line to pay..hmmm!!!
Well then we boarded the plane…waited 15min, 25min 35min 45min…and after the plain had been cleaned from snow on the wings, we took off!!!

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour vocalist Mette Lindberg took part in a Q&A with Hipster Overkill, where she talked about what fans can expect from the Danish pop act’s full-length debut album in April. “You can expect everything and nothing,” Lindberg said. “Even though you’ve heard the singles you can expect more songs that take us in a new direction. But, at the same time, they have something in common, so it’s a whole piece. I think that makes it fresh. It’s not something we thought about, it’s just the way it is.” Check out the entire interview here.

Hi folks!

but hey, seriously, we mean it…!! :)
Please please please DO have a tremendous ridiculusly happiest of all happy new years!!! We will certainly be doin our best here in the galaxy!
Right now Mette is warming up in Thailand while I am coolin’ down at my parents summer house at the stoney shores of freezing cold Denmark, far far and away from the city and civilisation.But it’s NOT summer here! But no regrets, I have a fireplace and lots of carved wood here to keep me warm and alive. And it’s beatiful up here. The air is crystal clear (and clean!) as I am sitting by my fireplace overviewing the sea in my biggest and warmest woolen sweater… I love it. And guess what I brought with me up here (apart from my girlfriend..?) : My little mobile recording studio including a guitar, bass, keyboard, a microphone and my macbook. Yes, new songs will be born here! I hope that some day you’ll get to know them – by heart :)
Have a great new years eve!!
See you in 09.XXX-Lars
