Philly
10/12 Okay so now I’m sat on another flying machine this time winging across the good old US of A. I’ve just explored the limited possibilities of the Tomb Raider movie – lucky Billy Bob and poor wretched me for watching such a pile of dross. Still if you’re going to the bank……..
We survived the KROQ Xmas show which is always a dubious affair – the sound on stage never has a chance to approach anything unrecognizable as the ‘conveyer belt of bands’ approach means that a sound check is a fairly meaningless notion even though everybody has one. So basically it is a memory gig but the crowd enjoyed some of what we had to offer and we enjoyed the rest. So tired that I was shaking for the last half of the show.
12/12
Someone I met at the show reminded me of an old joke; What do you call one hundred lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? Answer: A good start!
It was good to see the foos back in action. I think we one of the few bands without the assistance of a rapper. That could change as soon as I get myself ‘organazized’
I’m sat on what was once a glorious hotel in downtown Philadelphia. We just took a 10 hour bus journey from Detroit. The smoothest ride ever. Everyone is in good spirits. We even watched an old Woody Allen movie last night – wild times….
