Tico and Bobby

Thanks Rike, for dropping this in my inbox, and for the translation. Note that the website refers to Bobby as Alec.  Rike knows darn well which is which.  Tico and Bobby visited a Stammersdorf winery during the tour's stop in Vienna.

Music makes the world go round...
It doesn't happen every day that world stars get lost unrecognized in a small village Stammersdorf.
But yesterday was the day.

Tico Torres and [Bobby Bandiera] of Bon Jovi (the band with the highest income 2010) honored our winery with a visit one day before their show in Vienna. Why Stammersdorf, why we? You will ask yourself with good cause.

Maria Klager met Tico Torres during her last visit in USA and they agreed that Tico should call if they would come to Vienna. And really, yesterday (21.July, 2011) her phone rang and Tico was on the other end. They arranged a meeting at the winery in Stammersdorf.

Around 8pm Maria led them through hundreds of waiting fans from the Hotel Imperial so they could arrive unrecognized at the winery. There they were spoiled with Hermi's cooking skills and then they spent a nice and cozily evening together, with a little music. Around midnight they said their good byes.

The winery's website offers these pictures:

And a couple snippets of some singing from both gentlemen.

Thanks again, Rike. I just LOVE it when Tico sings :)
