What would the tour diary be without another mention of Roger from Pretty & Nice? Roger has a tattoo of an octopus in a storm-toss’d sea playing a Moog keyboard with its tentacles. It’s an amazing tattoo. With each visit to the States I become ever more dazzled by the amount of ink the youth [... … -

Big news. Toby now sports a twirled moustache. Cameron has drawn a little cartoon of him for your amusement. This tour we’re opening up for The Get Up Kids.

Last Wednesday evening Newtown’s Vanguard, against precedent, put away its dinner-and-a-show tables and threw open its velvet-lined interior to some loud brat-rock. As Mikey from Sleep Debt said to the crowd early on: “The Vanguard is a pretty shmick venue so we’re all under duress”. It was a good thing that Mikey’s claim was unsubstantiated [. … -
