Long time no update

No regular internet connection on this tour and when there is one I'd rather play cards or guitar. Or listen to music or read. I've grown boring. Plus my computer crashed, again. I don't even feel like typing this right now so I'm gonna keep it short, for more in depth material I refer to Jeff's blog which you can find in my link section.

Let me think, since last time:
-We didn't go snowboarding after the Austria show because we are all punkrock thus broke.
-I kinda partied in Luzern but the guys forgot to take me out to the bar because I was on the phone.
-We hung out in Florence for a day and two days in Rome. I love Rome. Jeff might have pictures on his blog.
-I'm sorry France but I have yet to see a show go off in your country.
-We watched all 24 episodes of Joey and we're close buds now so we can call him Tribbs. Thank god he finally hooked up with Alex, that was bound to happen but still it took 24 episodes (12 hours of tv). Right now we go back and forth between simpsons and south park. Touring is so exciting and fun where you get to do all these crazy things all day every day!

Tonight's show is looking good since there's 200 tickets presale so it will probably sell out. I'm sick of typing, I'm out of here.

Listening to:
Rufus Wainwright - Poses
Integrity - System Overload

three more days people.

''You can be my little cowboy''

Just a real short update because I´d rather eat snacks and listen to music. Did I tell we got a boombox with us so we have our own music in the backstage? We also have a mixtape we take the stage to, it's pretty cool.
Yesterday we partied in the hotel and had a pokertournament. I fell asleep after one round and lost one euro. This morning we went to camp Dachau. For the first time I saw the arbeit macht frei gate with my own eyes and that was probably the most impressive thing about the camp.

Tomorrow is only a three hour drive or something so we're going snowboarding in the morning. I'm excited about that, it's been at least 5 years since I snowboarded last.
I think the day after tomorrow is Italy, I think I said it before bu I'm superexcited about the vatican.

Jeff's birthday was fun with two cakes onstage, I'm pretty sure he has pictures on his blog, find them.

"oh look who decided to show up"

Been a long time since I had internet acces su I hadn't had a chance to update this in a while.
I'm in Austria right now where it's snowing and cold. In fact it's pretty much been snowing the past 1,5 week it seems.
After Arnhem we went to Scandinavia where I got to see a bunch of my Swedish friends which was great. Also Joy tagged along for three days which was awesome. After Scandinavia we played two great Germany shows. Lots of people from Holland came out to Ibbenburen where beers were just one Euro.
No touristy stuff since stonehenge but Italy's coming up so I'm excited to go back to the Vatican.

The Omission guys have proven to be great company. I'm glad they're getting into partying.

Also today I heard my boy rold is gonna be a dad so that got me superexcited. Plus it's jeff's birthday today. happy birthday Jeff!

I can't believe how little there is to tell about this tour. When this one ends in two weeks or so I'm gonna go visit Joy in Sweden for a week before we head out to Japan. Today I found supercheap planetickets, if only my mom would pick up her phone so I could ask her to book it for me haha.

We're getting great tour offers for later this year which I'm superexcited about, once all that's confirmed you're the first to hear.
Who's coming out to Antwerp? I need a ride eiter to Brabant or Rotterdam after that show.

I have a million pictures from past show but I'm to lazy to put 'm up. By now they're starting to all look the same anyway.

I'm off, I'm gonna watch Shattered Realm.

Currently reading:
Karakter by that one guy, I can't think of his name right now.
Turn of the screw by Henry James which I love.
Angels and Demons by Dan Brown which John gave to me to read.
I just wasn't made for these times, about the writing and recording of pet sounds.

Listening to:
Lots of Canned Heat. And a sticky fingers. I don't get a lot of listening time because mostly we just watch movies in our van. Current favourite: the cave.

Moz loves MLIW

This is the poster for the upcoming Morissey shows in London.


I forgot to tell, we went to stonehenge a couple days but didn't get in because it was 5 pounds and we're cheap. I still got to see it, though only from slightly further away.

Today I bought a book on the making of pet sounds and I found Jacob's Ladder on DVD, I been wanting to have that movie in my collection for years so I'm siked.

Oh and I don't think I'm sick anymore.
