October 28th, 2008 - The wheels on the van go round and round...
Round and round, round and round , the wheels on the van go round and round all night long ! Hitch hiker Not seen one of those bad boys for a long time, saw a good few on the road in the U S of A, but they’re pretty few and far between in a Kingdom as United as this one… I wonder why that is, I’m sure when the car first hit the road, when petrol was at an all time low, there were more hitchers than this, thumb size not significant! But it’s just a thought, just thoughts, just busy roads…
October 27th, 2008 - Rolling To Leeds
Yes Indeed Jo, It does work. Looks like were playing for 90 minutes tonight, thats a comfy 5 songs.HaHa. Spirits couldn’t be higher in the Band Bus(van), were all ready to do this tour. A bit wierd that were all so excited, considering we have pretty much been on tour since the band was formed! Feels good i think mainly because we have copies of our album just here, its a great feeling to finally have it ready, its taken a lot of people, a lot of love, and a lot of coffee. xxxxUnder the Pavementxxxx available at a gig near you x
