One of the many good reasons to live in Berlin:
I can stop by Native Instruments (one of the coolest companies for soft & hardware), have a chat and pick up a new Maschine controller (ours was damaged during the US tour).
Also, Paiste sent me new cymbals (which also crashed in the US...) for my drum kit.
Its like Christmas in September !
