    Okies back from tour there last tuesday, The last day was a nightmare- travelled for 12hrs to get back to galway- everyone was like zombies gettin the ferry... But Had a fucking great time in the UK- the gigs were good although attendence was low for the most part (what can you really expect though from a first tour?!)
    I really loved Edinburgh- its so pretty and seems quite alternative- plus that bar OPium that stays open til 5 in the morn and all drinks are £1- AMAZING!
    Its weird how attached you can get to travelling in a van, havin wee snoozes in the back, waking up in a new different city...
    Had a good laugh in Liverpool as well- the bar the lads were playing in was really cool- called the Roadkill Bar. All its tables were arcade still game machines. If and when i own my own house- SO havin that has me coffee table!
    My brother Terry took really good care of us as well- I wasnt sure how he'd take to the lads and react to the music (he's a bit of a coldplay fan) but he got REALLY drunk and seemed to really enjoy it! and greym and himself are like brothers now- they really bonded over shots of sambuca.
    I had to miss the leeds and london gig coz of commiting to denis to go with him to 2 nights of Prince at the 02 arena.. A bit skeptical at first as i dont know much of his stuff bar his million hit singles, but he was absolutely amazing! I shouted at denis at one point that this was deinitely the closest this girls ever gonna see to Hendrix. And its true! Prince can really play the guitar and he got all the moves- playing with his teeth, over his head- making the ladies feel good...
    His backing band as well were some of the best musicians ive ever seen live- Maceo Gray (james brown, funkadelic etc) savge!
    Went to see Leftover Crack at the mean fiddler on the sunday for our day off from the tour. We got absolutely rat arsed! Drinking cans in the alley beside the venue for a few hours- Leftover Crack were really good from what i can remember- everything is a bit blurry from 10 onwards- i can vaguely recall dancing like there's no tomorrow to beyonce and the sort at the Cheers bar in Picadilly... Good times!
    I miss been on tour but sure I really missed Denis and peeps in Galway so glad to be back... But have to get a full time proper job now- really skint! If anyone hears of anything let me know..
    Heading to munich in the morning for a beer festival in Erding called Herbstfest. 4days, 3 nights of drinking steins and eating full chickens, bring it on!

  • Update

    hey,
    so a quick update of the life of me. (do you really want to know? im not sure!) But have been working away in a part time job in an office, really nice place to work. Not much work to do so the day is pretty much spent on the web. Anyone got any good sites i can spend an hour on let me know!
    My brothers wedding is coming up at the start of August, should be a really good weekend! Its on in kinsale- love that place its so small and sea sidey! And the night club called the white lady is the best! (coz its kinda cringey and its on a hill!)
    Then im off to the UK for 2weeks touring with Les Christ Punchers. Really excited about it as we're playing with some savage bands (omerta from leeds, with scissors from brighton and the legacy!)
    Also very nervous though as its the first time ive booked a tour in the UK so im hoping ive booked the right venues and that the gigs go well!
    If ye know any peeps in the UK, tell em to pop along to the gigs.
    Planning to move to Canada next year for 6months so just gonna find me a proper full time job in September and start saving for that...

    Thats is all for now!
    Nicola :) x
