God what are we doing still on tour? HA! Well, at least it's a good one, we're opening for Malkmus and the Jicks. BTW, they couldn't be a nicer crew and the shows couldn't be better. It's a day off. I'm watching Ms. Crawford on TCM and the rest of the Vanderslices are spread out in the Garfield Suites. We're doing a bunch of headlining after the Malkmus dates, please check the shows page.

Porto, Portugal
The coast here is lined with eucalyptus and pines, it reminds me so much of Northern California. The tour has been wonderful, but we have tons of driving and a fly-in Dublin date in the next week. I would love to stay right here on the coast!

Goteborg, Sweden
We left the club a few minutes ago to hit the hotel for a pre-show crash and we found our Sprinter wrapped up with police tape! There were five or six cops on walkie-talkies...The bank right next door had been robbed (in daylight!) and I guess the Czech plates of our van were a red flag. We're now waiting for investigators to come from three hours away. The robber had thrown a huge rock into the front window of the bank and walked in with a gun.

ps, There's a couple, Mary and Ian, that are getting engaged tonight on stage!!! I will do the honors...
