3 DOWN, 1 TO GO

Our manager Chuck Head on stage in Cardiff..

So tomorrow we set off on a 88 hour drive to Scotland for the Fence Homegame Festival. Exciting! This is the last date of our first tour, the 'OLO Exotic' tour as we are calling it. After this weekend we will have played 4 gigs in 3 different countries! The crowds in Brazil were wild! We'll post up all the photos along with a tour video (groan) and some words when we get back from Scotland next week. Byebyee!

PS - I know i know really must blog more. When i get back i'll blog til i'm blue in the face!

A 'fan' threw us into her log fire and sent us the photo. Kind. I guess this is what we'll look like tonight in Cardiff..i don't mean we'll be hot/on fire! i mean we'll be burned to death by the locals after our stand-up show bombs at the comedy club.

HB MARK!
