something.

we re in Toronto right now. Both the canadian shows were really good we thought - we liked it, we liked the people (thanks to everybody at the ZooBizarre, the club people, the band Crystal Moustache, .. friendliness and carots make all the difference on this planet), thanks to everybody at the Horseshoe in Toronto. great place, great soundguy (hi Brian), great Jamaican food just across the street, the Ackee Tree - sweet people, and interesting paintings on the walls, by a local painter, Jabari (?) … really liked those … http://www.ackeetree.com/

guess that kinda defines our sources of inspiration - paintings, people, sweetness, carots. and hate and love of course, but that goes without saying.

talking bout love - yes, the night at Santos in New York was great. Dye loves Marnie Stern. WIN MARNIE WIN. and Gang Gang Dance were good n sweet too - the night ended with all 3 bands jamming together on stage, at least almost evrybody.

the long drives thru Vermont, Maine (or wherever we were) were great … snow, cold clear air, truckstops, Jakes service station … wait let me find a pic:

Dye at Jakes:

hanging out at the hotel, after some rehearsing for unplugged-ish radio sessions coming up. we got us two 1 Watt Fender mini amps, these 10 cm thingies for that.

now that s what we call wall of sound. the walls of the hotel were shaking. all about walls.

getting ready now for tonites show,

excited to be sharing a stage with Marnie Stern. really gotten to like her stuff - lyrics really resonate with me right now.

Dates for the US tour have now been confirmed - please see the LIVE section!

dye says thanks to all of you that came to roskilde, and for your messages.

this time around we had sorted out all belly pains and amplifier breakdowns 2 days before the show. so we actually enjoyed it.
