Which is heavier, a pound of New York thugs, or a pound of overbearing British soccer hooligans? Well, don't ask us, we didn't get a chance to weigh them, but we did visit them and lived to tell the tale. Suffice to say that your friendly ne'ers-do-well are returning home from a successful jaunt across vast continents, over tremendous waterfalls and underneath ferocious leopards.
Let's see... in America, we supported Nick Heyward and Michelle Shocked, busked in Central Park, and generally incited a not-insubstantial furor throughout the North-East. Britian-wise, we sold out our London shows, besieged and conquered Edinburgh (to where we're returning in August for their Fringe Festival), and had our van stolen. And, happy to say, we'll be going (coming?) back! Not all the dates are finalized, but those shows that are confirmed in Canada, the U.S. and Europe are noted on the back. And, rest assured that we will be returning to your burg, even if it doesn't appear on the chart overleaf. It's a summertime romp that combines over two of the world's great pleasures, listening to music and wearing shorts (or long pants). So, yes, we're exercising and eating right (starting with Fleishman's), and we sincerely hope you're doing the same. See you soon...
