How important do you rate the lyrical side of your albums?

Too complicated and too many "Best Of" albums. If I could figure it out maybe we would have a record deal then.

Hang with friends, play the guitar, concerts and going to a mad party now and then.
What's the craziest thing that has ever happened on a tour?
Our drummer ( Steffen ) took a picture of his dump and edited the picture so it would look happy with hearts and stars hovering around ! You should have been there to understand the madness.
