The first show in Vancouver was upmost energetic. We had to
blow out a few cob webs but after the first crack on the snare
the crowd began to move. This venue looked like the Tivoli
and the crowd was dedicated. So Richards on Richards street
is a definite for the future.We are Lucky to have acquired a
great Canadian crew that has been most hospitable and great
for a laugh. After driving around the countryside for the 3 days
staying in cabins in the snow, and 0 degree temperatures we
trek through the amazing Canadian Rockies.
Our tour companions "Current Swell" are keeping a roof over
our heads outside the city. Somehow we managed to acquire
this pimped out Ford Flex with all the mod cons. Sunroofs,
comfy seats, and a quiet motor are some of the perks of being
on the road in the Rockies for 8 hrs a day.
So far there have been great crowds at every show. Calgary
was our last show and we went out with a bang. The promoter
really looked after us and we played like it was the last time we
ever would. After a 12 hr drive from Calgary to Vancouver we
recorded some tracks in this great studio called Fader Master
at about 12 pm. We have finished up on the mainland and are
spending our last day on Victoria Island to farewell "Current
Swell".
I got to say that eating at Denny's at 3 in the morning was
definitely a highlight, especially because we had a massive
entourage. The poor waitress couldn't understand our down
under accents so we brought about 20 locals to translate our
slang. So now we bus it to Seattle.
