| Webster Hall, New York |
 |
| 30 Jun, 2006 |
| We played Webster Hall on our last tour of the US - in the 80's it was called The Ritz, and pretty much any band you can think of played there. It's an early show tonight, apparently because there is an amateur burlesque show on after us in the... [Read More] |
| 9:30 Club, Washington DC |
|
| 28 Jun, 2006 |
Jaff and Baz slept in until half-five this afternoon, but, with soundcheck being so delayed, it gave Sancho and myself a great opportunity to head a bit deeper into town, and, as it turned out, make some new pals along the way.
We went into a record... [Read More] |
| Cats Cradle, Carrboro |
|
| 27 Jun, 2006 |
| I get woken up this morning with a phone call from Sean who works for Vagrant Records, telling me that we need to eat at some place called ‘Crooks Corner'. He describes it as ‘Southern Gourmet' - being veggie, I'm suspicious. Nevertheless, after... [Read More] |
| The Loft, Atlanta |
|
| 26 Jun, 2006 |
| There's a song by Tom Waits called ‘Grapefruit Moon', with a line that goes, "Every time I hear that melody, Something breaks inside." I'm starting to feel that way about some of the French Kicks songs. They're playing stuff from their new... [Read More] |
| La Zona Rosa, Austin |
|
| 24 Jun, 2006 |

| Gypsy Ballroom, Dallas |
|
| 23 Jun, 2006 |
| We flew into Dallas from Los Angeles yesterday, as we stayed behind to film a video for ‘Worry About It Later' there. I'm so pleased we didn't have to do the drive, and instead got to enjoy a short flight - it's a big shout of a distance between... [Read More] |
| Palladium, Los Angeles |
|
| 20 Jun, 2006 |
| Weirdest gig of the tour. It's a party for T-Mobile, but don't worry- they're paying us an absolute shit-load of money, and it's allowing us to take full crew on this US tour - you could say it's paying the bills. It's absolutely crackers to see... [Read More] |
| Henry Fonda Theatre, Los Angeles |
|
| 19 Jun, 2006 |
| Fresh from my pseudo-hippy adventures the night before, I promise myself to squeeze the shoes on tonight. There's a film-crew taping the show, and it's the first night that a lot of the Vagrant crowd can make it out to see us. There's no way... [Read More] |
