home now. two weeks. legs working again, bicycles, jogging, beaches. summer! the tour seems almost like a lucid dream. but i was there, yes, i know i was there. and you were there, yes so many of you out there so much to reflect on. so many new friends. this tour taught me a lot.… [Read more…]
ok ok, i know it’s been forever… what can i say? things have been moving along pretty swimmingly and somehow i got caught up in Montreal-ness, and Mont Tremblant-ness, and now Toronto-ness again. But today is a very important day because we start the long drive back west as we head to Sault Ste. Marie… [Read more…]
I have to say that so far the two highlights of this tour have been on days off. Most of our days off are spent driving 8 hours from one town to the next, but we’ve had a couple of little gem days where we get the whole day to just relax, sleep in, recover… [Read more…]

what does it mean to enjoy? to find peace? on a constant or at least consistent basis? to pose the question to feel uncertain jittering nerves, chattering teeth everyone so afraid of loving but we can’t hide it it escapes us we need to open that’s what it is let laughs rumble and tumble out… [Read more…]
no, it’s in dry, flat place where fields of green spread as far as the eye can see. a few cows dot the rolling hills. the girl at the gas station looks like she walked straight out of 1985. boy george’s former back-up singer perhaps? we’ve been driving since a little after 8am. nothing glamorous… [Read more…]
wow, am i in calgary already? this tour is starting to fly by, like an eagle with outspread wings! we’ve played a few shows already and they’ve gone pretty swimmingly. thanks to all who have hung out, put us up, come out to the shows, rocked out. i’ve had many ups and downs in terms… [Read more…]
