Hello everyone,
Welcome back to my Unicorns tour diary. Just as before, anyone who want's
to be removed from the list should contact me here, or at my other e-mail
(sticks_twirler@hotmail.com)
It's been a while since I wrote an update, I think I was in the US the
last time. As it turns out I'm in the states again, at a hotel in
Plattsburg. We crossed the border last night, and we're headed towards
Boston where we will play this evening. This is the beggining of our new
US tour which will takes us first down to Miami, Where we'll stay for a
while before heading west, eventually making our way back to Canada in
April.
The cast of characters is mostly the same with myself, Alden and Nick,
plus Max Groadie (the roadie, aka Bill). But we've added a new face to the
team in the form of Mark Lawson, who will be doing our sound for us (Mark
recorded our album and is a good friend as well as a fantastic sound guy).
We also have Dan and Noel (the manager(s)) and Deanna (Alden girlfriend)
for the next couple of days.
After the HHH tour finished up, we took some much needed time off (over
the hollidays) and returned with fresh faces and good attitudes. Most of
the time I had in Montreal was taken up by recording (we did two songs for
a 7" which comes out in march). We also played what might be our best show
to date at "the party club" also knows as "the grey room" on Maguire
street. We absolutely sold the place out (I was told it was the most
people ever at that venue) and played as well as we ever have. It was one
of the best night's I've had in a while.
The next day consisted of a lot of preparations for leaving (we are gone
for several months, after all) and helping clean up the venue. We left to
cross the border at around 9:00, got across fine, and got a hotel in
Plattsburg.
Which I guess brings this update full-circle. Here I am, you're caught up.
Stay tuned for further updates in the next couple of days. Tuesday we play
the vice magazine party in NYC and that should make for some good update
material.
Until then, everybody stay clean and be good to one another.
