THANK YOU to all the lovely folks we met whilst on tour in America with Peggy Sue.

Huge gratitude to all- whether you came to a gig, lent us an amp, turned a blind eye to seven people showering in one hotel room, brought us unpronounceable shots mid-set, fed us Superman cake or did anything else that contributed to a wonderful tour.

It was also our first experience of touring in such close quarters with another band so it was doubly fortunate that we got on so well with Peggy Sue. They’re a great live band and I’m so excited to hear their album it borders on giddy. Sickening eh? Well if I’m Lyin’, I’m Dyin’. It was amazing fun rambling around the continent as a duo of power trios, so thanks to all that enabled that to happen.

Huge props also to our tour managers Ben and Scuba Steve. There were some truly heroic drives on this tour, and we only ended up teetering on an incline beside railroad tracks by a pile of bones picked clean by a mountain lion in the middle of the night that one time. No photos of that event exist (but I SWEAR every word of the story is true), but here are some snaps from the last night of tour- our first experience of American Halloween in Chicago.

We parked outside Wrigley Field and pretended to be in Vieuphoria for a little while…

…hung out with Superdog…

…wandered the streets of Chicago enjoying Halloween houses…

…and made our way to our venue (The Whistler) where one of the barman greeted us dressed as LARRY DAVID

The doorman;

BILLY MAYS

Tour managing us had however taken its toll on Ben

A few days earlier we found a large selection of hospital scrubs in a Salvation Army in Ann Arbor, so we decided to honour Chicago and perform as the zombie Cast of ER. Pumpkins were carved and dutifully smashed and how we ever made the 7am check-in for our flight home I’ll never know. We have some exciting news as to how we’ll finish the year that will be revealed soon, until then, THANKS AGAIN Y’ALL
