Remember that European metal
band from some years ago (From, I want to say: Denmark?) that had that
really big power ballad? Well, the drummer had an older brother, Udo,
who is still resentful for his brother's coke-fueled sex rampage that
was the 1997 world tour. While his brother was touring the world, Udo
had to stay at home and take care of their ailing mother. He had to
drop out of school, abandoning his dream of becoming a lepidopterist .
Thankfully the mother got better – turns out her veganism was making her
anaemic – and he got a decent job as a night custodian at the Lego factory
(so yeah, I was right: totally Denmark). He has to frequently change mothballs in the urinals, but that's as close as he gets to his dream. However! Just this weekend, though, he received a surprise visit from his
estranged brother, who, in a bid for reconciliation, is sending Udo
to a one-month intensive butterfly seminar in Borneo this summer.
