Headed to America tomorrow to play in Philadelphia and New York City. Yesterday I returned from Paris, France and immediately travled to Oxford for a brief appearance at a music festival called The 9 Muses. The setting was cute but was destroyed thanks to a few of the band members of the band that played after me. The bass players vibe was very brown in color like the stinky stuff dogs leave behind once relieving themselves. He and his friend apologised after my set but, what good does that serve. I suppose you can't win them all. LOL. Up until that point at the festival I was enjoying myself and will do my best to reflet on the events prior to the silver spandex attired bass player and his blonde surfer like friend.
The next I arose to make my way to Lounge on the Farm Music Festival locate in Canterbury. Didn't show up to the gig on time and as a result, had to be wedged onto another stage. The audience payed attention and bought some merch. so I can't complain.
Tomorrow I fly to America for a quick 3 day support tour with Wild Beasts. The first gig is in Philadelphia at the World Cafe. After Philadelphia I'm back to my third home, New York City.
