At the beginning of their career musicians often perform at humble locations such as markedplaces and shopping centers. So it was a bit of a surprise to see a name as big as Freya with two album releases in the back play at Frederiksberg Centret in Copenhangen.
Freya must have felt the same as she wrote in her diary from 23. September 2000: "Last Friday we played in Frederiksberg Centret (!). It was a pretty peculiar experience to perform in a shopping center for one and a half hour! But anyway it was great fun."
I was busy taping the gig, so I only brought my little amateur pocket camera, which of course can be seen from the pictures.

A couple of Freya's private friends could be spotted among the audience. There was 18 song on the set list, and prior to song no. 11, She Was Always On Her Mind, Freya introduced her girlfriend, Karen Ringsmose, with the words: "Now we're going to play a song that actually are inspired of the girl standing right there (pointing at Karen). Spotlight, thanks! It is a song called She Was Always On Her Mind, which we sang together in highschool!" At the buttom of this site you can see the photo I took of Karen in the audience.
In spite of the bad acoustic condition in the center, it was an excellent performance from the band - again Rune proved what a great gifted rock guitarist he is.
