(BELOW: A variety of clips from the European Tour. Good times.)
(Don't you just hate "band bios?" So do we. But here's a stab at one:)
There was once this guy, Ben Deily...he started a band called the Lemonheads with his friend Evan, but eventually left to go back to college and pretend to be an "adult."
But he kept on writing songs. And playing 'em with his friends. And so, blah blah blah, folks hung out, beverages was consumed, instruments were manhandled, recordings were made. Europe was, surprisingly, toured.
Hell, make up your own damn history. It'll probably be more interesting.
We'll even help get you started: "Once upon a time...a man woke up covered in vomit and schnapps in an Arkansas police station. It was only then that he realized he was missing his..."
My Dear varsity drag, I want you to know that your music and your songs are my passion. I am addicted to varsity drag. There is something that pulls me towards them. Keep it up varsity drag. Di PS:Follow Me Twitter at http://twitter.com/iaent
Hey Guys, Hope you're having a great weekend. As soon as I can scrap enough pennies together I'll order a copy of your new record!
As well as saying hi I just wanted to say as soon as you book UK dates again we'd love to play with you guys again as it was great to share a bill with you.
Take care and keep up the wicked tracks, Alan D&TD x
Great to meet you guys in Cambridge. Enjoyed the gig very much. Thanks for the albums, really getting into those now. Hope things go well for you. Cheers, Ben.
Thanx Ben!... Got back safely in the end !.... Was more gutted to not spend some (albeit a little) quality time with you guys and get pics n' stuff!... Hope your mini tour has been going well?... Seems to have been an adventure at the very least?..... My 'other' mates 'Section 13' supported you the other night also! (in Lemington Spa)... If you could sign anything for my Sis 'Alison' I would be most grateful!.... I would be well chuffed for an auto from you and Lisa (also) if that's ok?..... Was I right in thinking that you did 'Amazing Grace' also, in Cambridge last weekend? or was I really that pissed?.... By the way... Thanks again for making a big kids night!!!... Despite my wallet F~*K up!... My address:

Dear Varsity Drag, Why do you hate America? Europe is great and all but a few of us outside the New England would like to see your band. Thanks you for considering my comment. ~tp
For the love of pete, please play Washington, D.C., Virginia or Maryland. I'd give an arm and a leg to see you play that old Creator/Lick/Hate material (and, of course, the Varsity stuff!).
It was a mess. My finger basically exploded. Blood all over the van door and window...We will see what happens. Not good. In better news, we will see you guys soon in Cambridge I believe on the 11th... J
